Saw about it earlier some were closed, many in Cov?

Havent had a KFC in years.

Let's hope Yodel don't get the contract next or all the chicken will be thrown over the back gate.

Some of the public reaction to this is just dispairimg.

I don’t understand why people like the stuff they and Maccys churn out. It’s not that tasty and is all crap. The only time I have it is when I’m on the road and there’s no other option. Can’t remember ever thinking I actually want something from there.

Couldn't believe they mentioned in on BBC earlier.

Doesn't anyone find it a tad bizzarre how this apoears to have happened?

 

[Nick]

So their suppliers have run out of chicken?

Must admit I don't really have much KFC, used to have them more back in the day but now whenever I go they always look shabby. The one at courthouse green is a shithole, I probably wouldn't let my dogs eat from there.

No there's been plenty of chicken ,it's the logistics that have fallen down.
I find it incredulous, almost to the point something else is behind it.

 

[Captain Dart]

I am outraged..

Yes. DHL are a very well respected company too.

It's either a massive public health risk through their main supplier, or some sort of financial issue with KFC UK.

Please do not mock at times like this, the above clip really shows the hard times some have fallen on, please have her in your prayers tonight.

 

[ajsccfc]

Between that clip and the police having to ask people not to call them about it I can't decide if I'm appalled or slightly in love with the public.

 

[Sick Boy]

There's been a shortage of free range chicken down here for weeks now

'Don't call police over KFC crisis' .....someone please kill me.

I really do despair sometimes.

Should I be worried that our local branch is fine??

Are they serving dog/pigeon/badger??

Heard somewhere earlier that apparently its to do with a computer system failure, although looking at the way the chicken is sat about in plastic boxes I dont think I will be eating at KFC in the near future (if it all).

According to the radio this morning DHL haven't got the required license to transport the chicken anyway.

What a mess. If that’s the case how are some places still open? Is it stock reserves that they had already or have they been able to have some delivered?

Its a new logistics company based in Solihull causing the issues i believe.

They're probably making sure their own local branches are sorted first so they have somewhere for lunch so you might be ok!

Seems the council have said its not in the public interest to force them to close as they have now made the application and the council have inspected the site and are satisfied.

Same old story really. Big corporation makes a change to cut costs, union warns it will cause issues, union gets accused of scaremongering and change is made anyway, all falls apart as union predicted.

Are these guys back up and running again, haven't heard anything for a few days?

Missing your bargain bucket?

Conservatively I reckon I may have frequented the one on Walsgrave Rd once after a day 'On it ' after the Rugby followed by the Rose and Crown and then once near Earls Court (work) at an unbranded competitor.
