The cost of the food options in the stadium are prohibitive for many. Food restrictions aren't part of Martyns Law and safety requirements. I'd like the club to rethink their policy re bringing food into the stadium.

The ridiculous prices for food within the ground. We will just turn up for kickoff rather than coming early for a couple of drinks before and after the game. Shame as it gives us the chance to catch up with friends. This will kill the atmosphere of the club. Please think again -

Not everyone can afford to pay the ridiculous prices for food within the ground. We will just turn up for kickoff rather than coming early for a couple of pints before the game. Shame as it gives my dad the chance to catch up with friends he wouldn’t otherwise see. He’s 82.

How about thinking of those people who have dietary needs!

I do not believe that carrying one's own food into a football ground is a safety issue.

Whilst I appreciate the club needs money , this is rather in poor taste (no pun intended ) the cost of living is incredible and our core fans loyal through and through contribute enough please think again

Just another factor that makes a trip to the Lane seem more like a chore than a joy.

Look, this is such a silly thing and should have been discussed before being rolled out so voice of the supporters who keep getting asked for more and more money could be heard. roll this back and stop being idiotic. Sincerely, Brian LoCicero, Lifetime Dons Trust Member and the ChicagoWomble

I can’t see how a small number of people bringing their own food / drink into the ground is 1- dangerous or2- likely to damage the club’s finances.

It's a squeeze too far on loyal fans.

Not everybody can afford the prices of the food within the stadium and tickets prices already cost a lot more than other clubs in L1. This is a terrible decision and is penalising fans unnecessarily

We travel to home games, food in the ground is expensive and also sometimes queues are too long at half time.

Supporters should be allowed to bring their own food and drink into the ground, as long as it can be checked on entry. The club cannot always cater for everyone’s dietary requirements, and the prices inside the ground are simply too high.

having medical issues ,i have to eat certain foods that the club does not provide, i also cannot wait in long lines for food due to disability, this is just a cash grab from a so called fans club that in reality does not put fans first. Sort it out Wimbledon , we ressurected this club for us fans, and yes i spent thousands in it myself, and it was not to be treated like this..unnafordable dividion 3 football is shocking, even the ticket prices are among the most expensive

Seat 123/K/9. Its ridiculous that the club doesn't allow snacks and sandwiches to be taken into the ground. If the provision in the stadium was more affordable and more accessible (shorter queues), then it m8ght not be necessary.
