    The guy is a fucking idiot and got what he deserved. In a world where social media plays such a part you can be dismissed from work for gross misconduct ‘liking’ idiotic posts is only going to antagon

  • Hi all; been a long time voyeur on the site and a few things I've seen have made me pants twitch.  But as a Wanderer for over 50 years;  reading a lot of the stuff on this thread and in the general pr

  • I saw the truth from the beginning ffs  KA’s job was to balance the books and spin plates till investment came. He’s done that with success so far. It just can’t carry on, we don’t have a Gary Ma

Fireworks and drums would be a good start

Blame wolves launching one into the crowd for the lack of fireworks

The pre match burger /beer vans that opened up to form a little market outside Sporting Lisbon was top. We should try something like that on the arena approach selling 5 quid pints of carling and stale pies.

The set up at old Trafford is fuckin brilliant.

 

There’s so much more the club could do to improve the match day experience.

Pork barms from the stall by the away end at Sunderland...tip fuckin top  :good:

Thinking back to great days at Burnden, a lot of the atmosphere of the build up stemmed from  what was on the way to the ground, from burger vans to Rice'n'Easy. 

The Aberdeen Angus burgers on focaccia in that little park by Craven Cottage are fantastic 

In terms of catering we are miles behind

Pork scratchings at Wolves & West Brom............maybe not !!

 

I agree that part of the lack of atmosphere at the ground is down to the lack of burger vans, badge sellers & that kind of thing.....didn't they even stop the sale of fanzines.

Bang on

 

I’ve said it before on here, like Satan alludes to above it all adds to the matchday experience.

 

Grounds like goodison, old Trafford etc are ace. Proper feels like you’re at a match.

 

I really do wonder why fans bring so many to our place. It’s fuckin shit.

 

Get some burger vans set up, badge and scarf sellers, open harvester for away fans. Make it a proper ground.

 

It’s half the reason I can’t bring myself to drink in the hotel before the game. It’d be easier, but it’s meant to be a matchday.

 

There’s so much more the club could do, with little cost and consultation with fans to make it a just a bit better.

Mush as I despise the Massives the City Square setup is brilliant for home fans

 

Thousands eating and boozing yards away from the ground at every match

Sure it was McDonald’s and the likes that put a stop to them as part of the rental agreement on middlebrook

I got a full on boner when that was first published.

We should have gone with that design, with half of Bolton School next to it where Tesco car park is.

Always loved that design.

"Artist's impression" had us in the middle of the fucking Sahara Desert

what happened to the massive burger king on the right of the stadium

Looks like a Youth Offenders wing!

 

I wonder what that building is supposed to be to the left that looks the same design as the ridiculous Star Wars entrance to the ground.

Look how many red seats there are!!! Looks like the entrance was designed by the morlocks from time machine

WTF is that!?! :lol:

That's clearly the stage for the Festivals/Gigs we'd be hosting.

Atleast they look like they’ve sketched some parking stewards to manage the traffic

I’ve posted it before but how the fuck in the space of 6-7 years did we go from aldershot and selling half the embankment to survive to having the funds to build the reebok?

 

When actually think how little time that is it’s fuckin bonkers.

We didnt have the cash to build the ground.

 

That was the first 35 million of the debt

 

 

Selling burnden was supposed to pull most of that but laws on planning were changed
