Opening under the north stand.
Unless they put heating in, seating and different food from what is served on the other concourses, then I'm not entirely sure what purpose this serves

north stand has always been the away end until this season, what happens come the day that we hopefully get back to the league and start playing teams with more than a mini bus full of fans?

Its still not really what folk are wanting though, its basically what folk can do already but may open a bit earlier. Not sure its much competition for the new Brampton Brewery place over the road.

Yeah it’s a tin pot idea. Basically come and stand on the cold concourse for a bit then when it’s time walk around the ground and stand on another concourse. May as well just go in your stand straight away and have a beer if you are gonna get to the ground early enough.

It's all about trying to build bridges Ahem but as a going concern it will take a lot of work I feel to change people's pre match schedule especially this time of the year. Take The Donky Derby, plenty of room:reasonable menue:wide choice of drinks etc AND A BRIGHT WARM ENVIRONMENT with the TV footie of course.

Now to compete we'd have to serve reasonable food, cheaper beer, but as for the space down there that's really going to be the deal breaker.

Anyway someone is at least trying and I am told there is consideration of a fans zone in the warmer weather where the current football bouncy castle is situated.

Let's get there eh Jack

The "fans zone" outside the ground is a good idea and it doesnt need to be just warm for it to happen really. Sunderland do something similar even to the extent they would have live music from local groups etc pre game at times.

This is from a while ago but an idea of what they did\do :-

Yes but i'm not going to do it just for the sake of it. How many folk are really looking forward to standing on cold concrete in a concourse drinking out of a plastic pot and paying a decent amount to do it? The option to do it is already there if folk wanted to.

Pity we cant buy the land at the junction of Pottery Lane West and Sheff Rd, and build a new building at least similar to the old Saltergate club. Exeter, Sutton,Barnet have good supporters bars. Don't know how the North Stand will work.

The natter I had last Saturday about the total lack of quality in our performance took place in the bog. The concourse might be slightly more inviting than that.

Dont forget it'll be a private members bar, so will have fingerprint entry for all registered members.......

We haven’t seen the decor, food and drinks yet so don’t jump to conclusion, could be nice carpets, wooden flooring, art work on the walls, comfy chairs and tables, open fire real ale, fine wines and spirits served in real glass and extensive menu. I personally wait in anticipation
