The Pie Report

So we're a quarter of the way through this great adventure already and it's only the 28th August.

After reading comments from Callum requesting photographic evidence of the various clubs' Pies, I've realised that the Pie Report is an important part of the blog. So I've decided to give you a run down, a top to bottom run down if you like, of those on offer so far. Next week I'll try and remember to take a photo of our half-time nourishment for you Callum.

Now these comments are based on my father's comments, so if anyone from any of the grounds is reading this, don't get too upset; unless you work for Hibernian Football Club, ya pie dodging tightwads!!

The Pie Report league table:
1. Aberdeen FC -
£1.70
'The best yet'
8/10

2. Motherwell - £1.70
'The crust is almost perfect, temperature is spot on and the meaty based filling is not too salty'
7.5/10

3. Alloa Athletic - £1.00
'It is by far the best value for money pie yet but it's not quite a Motherwell Pie'
7/10

4. Elgin City - £1.30
'It is a good pie but it's not quite a Motherwell pie'
7/10

5/10

10. Peterhead - £1.50

11. East Fife - £1.50
'Unusual with a Steak Pie crust and excessively salty filling'

Can't give you a comment on quality as unbelievably at half time on the first game of the season, they ran out of pies at Easter Road.
0/10.

  1. good work. i didn't get to sample a pie at easter road on my first visit to a football ground in about 15 years. £3.90 for a pie and bovril! Perhaps a future Scotland Iceland U21 will be at Pittodrie.
