[Albion] New proposed fan zone

[Herr Tubthumper]

I think it could add to the atmosphere if it was marketed to those who fancy a corporate experience in a more relaxed setting. Tickets could be sold on a match by match basis and marketed to stag do's, birthdays, company beanos ect. If it was it was set up like pub, with a band, pool tables, table tennis ect I imagine it would be incredibly popular as a one off experience particularly if you could trade your usual seat in for a discount.

There was about 50 AEK fans in the south stand shelf that made a right racket.

What sort of pubs do you go to?

Well none like that but it was proposal for something a bit different. Corporate could be a bit different IMO, catering for people who night be keen to do it as a one off

I get where you’re coming from but pool and table tennis take up a lot of space and generate little income per square foot. I can’t see it happening.

Yeah take your point. I would just like another option that doesn't feel like an airport lounge or conference lounge. Something I could treat myself to for a birthday. Decent beer in a proper glass and something that resembles a pub then watch the match from a decent vantage with like minded people who are up for singing

Thinking about this, I think the club tried this in the East stand? I seem to recall there was pub style offering called The Seven Stars?

I had no idea! Will Google it, thank you

Sports Bar? I liked it when we went in.

Sounds a bit like a Roxy.
I can't stand them, but I've never been in one less than at least 7 pints in so my opinion probably isn't worth much. In that, I can't really remember much that went on while I was in there.

 

[Dave the OAP]

The 1901 have their own lounges etc. I assume the “ fan zone” will be for the proletariat fans

therefore I expect a £25 entrance fee and £10 a pint per game

Table tennis in a pub? Recipe for disaster... "Oi..! Whose ball is this in my pint?"

 

[oneillco]

They can't even cater the West Lower. Why build somewhere else to cater?

Guess what? If they increase the catering outside the stadium the pressure will ease in WSL...

Back room of the Bath Arms in the Lanes, back in the day.

 

[Flounce]

I liked what I thought of as the “Bordello“ bar at Gillingham, I’d like something like that in the Amex

The upstairs loos look to be unisex (as per image in post #333) Gentlemen lift the seat!

I think they might have labelled the toilets wrong. Seems there are F1 and F2 which I assume are Female, M1 and M2 being Male. However, the M1 and M2 have 5 cubicles and F1 and F2 only 2 each.

The east stand 1901 probably fits that criteria out of the current offerings (can’t think of the name of it).

May be ’inclusive’ loos.

 

[PeterT]

May be ’inclusive’ loos.

And in front of the traditional male or female picture on the door they carry the words ‘If you see yourself as…’

May be ’inclusive’ loos.

Why prefix them separately with F and M then?

Maybe the 5 cubicles is M for Marching Powder.
