I doubt they will have 3-400 customers of those that go never mind another 400

All things considered I reckon if they get 50 customers in spending an average of £10 per person, they have to consider the first day of the supporters bar a success. And if it’s been done right they might get 75 in next game.
It’s a positive step.

Yep. Good luck on a positive initiative.
Doesn't say whether you have to show a ticket to get in.

Why can’t Salford’s owner keep pumping money in? He doesn’t need it

Sure - I agree with you on that one. Point taken. Its not that he cant keep pumping money in. That's a never ending pot. The point is a what point does it become viable to keep pumping money in? At the moment at Salford its Boys playing with their Toys and its all new. He can keep pumping money in forever but at some point they are going to get fed up and the club will become seen for what it is ... a fabricated club similar to fabricated boy bands and we all know what happens to them eventually.

No reason why you should.

Might make one. I’m assuming kids are allowed in...

I was in the Fylde Supporters Bar on Saturday for a few pre- match bevvies. Great Bar and facilities with really nice staff and people. Food great, atmosphere great, with mixed supporters both Home and Away chatting and getting along. The great thing about this league is that there doesn't seem to be the mindless animosity against opposing fans which allows for things such as an "in house" stadium sports bar to be successful. My only concern and worry is how would it work against teams like Grimsby, Wrexham, Port Vale etc or any other bigger club with troublesome followers. Are there alternative plans in place for these games?

I doubt it would happen for these games, the only reason it’s happening in the north stand is because the stand doesn’t need to be used for seating.
If you use the seating you can’t let a mixture of supporters into the bar.

The away end would be in use anyway so there would be no bar.

Yeh presumably the ways its being set up can be easily taken out for any occasion that this stand is needed which as it stands in this league is pretty rare with the East Stand section plenty big enough to accommodate most away followings.

Correct at the moment its a temporary arrangement to see out the season, factoring in who we have still to play

None of it will be remotely permanent. I think the trendy term is 'pop up'.

Yep and with it being "pop up" probably a good chance that if the North Stand is used for away fans it could be housed in the away end of the East Stand perhaps just by shifting everything over?

Crikey! 1001 subjects??

I really think I'd struggle to come up with a list that long despite everything and bearing in mind Mr Bean can only work on trying to improve things for the future and cannot rectify historic mistakes..

Well you are not the most observant

I'm quite observant I can assure you.

But, without repeating yourself, I will challenge you to come up with that list of 1001.

Away fans in national league are more laid back than in FL but opposing players in NL are more aggressive than FL players....?

Whilst they are saying food is 3.50 and not available anywhere else the the concourses, why don’t they just say what it is.?
