No beer, but a fan zone where people can get together before the game, including buying food and soft drinks. The club are in the process of applying for a license to sell beer outside of the stadium.
There are a number of plans to really Albion-ise the outside of the stadium and make it more of the whole match day thing for a fan.
These include live bands and food and drink concessions including alcohol.
The licensing for the latter has already been resolved, however Sheffield Wednesday is a Category A game and as such alcohol will not be sold outside on Saturday. I believe it should be available for Cheltenham and then for the Bolton league game.
A very good analogy I heard last night is that, for a fan, approaching the Amex from the station should give the same sort of feeling that players get walking down the tunnel onto the pitch.
It won't all be in place on Saturday, but we should see the first stuff then, with more to come later.
Sounds good. Exactly what is needed
Wonder if the hitler stewards have been told about it (for when we can drink outside)

Will be excellent if there's a variety of independent food outlets serving thai, mexican etc etc
Hopefully there will be someone selling proper chips with forks like they did at Withdean
It gets better and better, since it is outside entertainment does it count towards FFP?
