| It has been revealed today that the Team's lack of an upstanding performance can be laid at the feet of Doris the "Tea Lady" for using suspect ingredients. Due to a cost cutting drive in the non-playing staff Doris was asked to take over the tea making as well as her cleaning duties and to source and supply the raw materials needed on a very restricted budget. Quick thinking Doris contacted her weekday employers H.M.P. Leeds and was able to purchase at half price some slightly out of date stock (Best before 1960) special bromide blend.

| Tealady being blamed by Lowes on Radio Leeds, only brought Earl Gray and lemons, no sign of sugar or milk. Huge impact on players not following game plan, Jimmy was over heard offering her out in the tunnel

| Poor woman's psychology of good tea making now in doubt....apparently the tea lady is not mentally strong enough to ask pertinent questions such as "milk or sugar" ?
Senior management decide best course of action is to send her on training course "Self Belief for Catering" at the renowned tea wagon in B and Q car park up the M606

| The tealady is 110% behind Lowes, despite constantly cocking up and making wallpaper paste instead of tea, contrary to his instructions.

The claim is untrue we are still looking for a tea lady - huge problem finding someone who can spell - currently there is no one to STEAL.

My old Nan used to say you need fresh water to make a good pot of tea and this is maybe what is required at Odsal.

| Tealady Doris looking lost without the talented Mullaney made of biscuit. Our big name Ginger is prone to cracking and instead tealady is left to serve dog biscuits.

| I think the tea lady has to take some blame. Regardless of the instruction she is been given by the stall manager, I think she is experienced enough at making tea to be able to make tea properly, and there are enough experienced tea makers working on the stall to be able to step up and make tea properly too. I mean they make tea all the time, all week long. They should be able to make a decent cup by now.

| I'm not sure the stall manager is communicating how he wants the tea to be made clearly enough. And the buck must stop with him, despite the tealady making starting to make nice tea before dropping a cup, having a little cry, and then constantly making awful cuppas for the rest of her shift.
And, of course, all the people waiting in the queue for a cup of tea should not moan about the quality of the tea, and should instead keep cheering the tealady and buying more tea, despite it being just awful.

I've enjoyed this thread a lot, but that is my favourite line yet

| I think everyone is missing the point here. You see, none of the players drinks tea anymore. They insist on cappuccino, latte or mocha with a penchant for Colombian blends. A serious caffeine fix just before kick-off and at half-time should do the trick.
However, I fear we will have to replace dear old Doris with a top quality barista from Costa. I hear that Manuel at Costa's in Leeds is not happy with the deal he has been offered for next season and is looking for a lucrative move.
On the downside, our Head Caterer has publicly stated that "he doesn't need a barista" and has the full backing of the Board of Directors.

Indeed. I live not all that far from there and never realised Tong St had gone so far up-market!

| It's not up-market quality. It's up the back of the market quality.

| It's very important the tea lady seeks advice if her position is being made untenable by board interference she shouldn't just leaf but barista's don't come cheap, do they do no win no fee?

| Tealady has been informed not to serve Custard creams with the pre match cuppa as it seems to be slowing them down, an alternative of a lighter Rich tea has been suggested.
