Kane57 125 Posted October 11, 2019 Imagine it's summat to do with the profit they make in the FZ being less than that made on the concourses, this way they get fans in the stadium spending earlier than normal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radcliffewhite1 522 Posted October 11, 2019 I get the thinking Was hoping to kill half hour or so once bus arrives instead of going in ground Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Traf 2,352 Posted October 11, 2019 It all sounds shit to me, so I'll not be bothering. It sounds very similar to the sterile crap we got last time. Big tables, guest speakers, raffles & quizzes are not the way forward, they're making it like a pre-match LoV suite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been to a few clubs pre-match stadium drinking holes, it's not rocket science! Keep it simple, bar with good drinks selection & good service, big screen showing SSN/lunch time game/last away game, simple easy food selection & all with reasonable pricing. I don't get these raffles, quizzes & live music gimics. It's a football match, not a working man's club. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biggish Dave 419 Posted October 12, 2019 They’d be better off getting 1 or 2 of the old boys just walking around the place getting mithered by folk who want to mither them rather than have speeches. Stejay has already bagsied Dave Lee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheese 727 Posted October 12, 2019 Only been in fanzone once. 15 minutes before kick off, a rapper took to the stage and everyone walked out, including me. I felt sorry for him, but it was fucking shite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MickyD 843 Posted October 12, 2019 Poor spelling that, cheese. I thought it was widely known that when used to describe a musical genre, rap had a silent C at the beginning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last time I was in, they turned the footy off so a 12 year old girl, who'd won Wigan's got talent, could sing a song A good 20 or 30 blokes having a pre match beer looking on It was all bit awkward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marple whites 77 Posted October 20, 2019 Hotel for me - each to their own, but good to have a choice and something to suit everyone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MickyD 843 Posted October 20, 2019 Hotel for me too. You could tell when the FanZone kicked folk out at 2.00 because suddenly our queue was to the top of the stairs. So much for it making folk go to the concourse bars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frank_spencer 584 Posted October 21, 2019 Last orders at half 2 makes much more sense. My dad can't drink at the mo so we won't be going but I want it to be successful for the fans that do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowball 323 Posted October 21, 2019 Did anyone else notice a slight changes to hotel experience? Carrs pasties on the bar (£3 tho compared to £1.65 on halliwell road) and a pool table tho dont know if that will be in operation matchdays. Also a closed off reserved section which i take it folk can pre book. Anyway thanks all who went to fanzone coukd get to bar a lot quicker up until 2.30 but stocked up by then.
