The Supporters' bar aka Dick's Bar

[Napper]

ps Perhaps the club should have signs up on the walls to help folk navigate their way there? 'Dick's In' sould do the trick, I'd have thought - although an exit sign following the same theme would be one nob-gag too far imo. But then I should know all about that, eh Dougal?

whatever floats your boat mate

 

[Albion Dan]

Looks like a hotel bar from that signage...

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

The Goldstone would have been my choice of name

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Yes, of course.
Would you kindly amend the thread title?

Happy to have done so.

 

[Giraffe]

It is a f***ing daft name but on the plus side no one can get to it anyway!!!

Would be good to see Knights bar instead or a completely different name.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

'Been privy (on the QT, like) to any info on the actual location of the entrance, Your Lordship? My days of abseiling into boozers - c/w hammers & thunderflashes - are long since gone, unfortunately.

Edit: Just seen your reply to The Hark-ster. So I take it that you go through the door with 'Reception' on it/above it?

I think it's the grey door, rather than the 'Reception' door.

I have been in it - but I seem to remember using a ladder to climb up. This was last September and, to be honest, it still needed a few finishing touches, such as walls.

Dick came up with the name himself.

Talking to Attila after the game and he said Dick Knight had no idea that the name would be, er, 'misconstrued'. Some of the stewards hadn't heard of it (I guess) as I got a few funny looks when I was asking for "Dick's Bar" (I deliberately stressed the 'bar' bit) and they probably thought I was on a wind-up. Eventually I asked in the reception and they HAD heard of it - but said it was shut. Probably just as well as judging by the queues for everything else it would have been packed.

 

[Garage_Doors]

Think the "Knight club" would have been better.

 

[Saint Lennard]

When does it open?

 

[BUTTERBALL]

I couldn't find it either but it appears to be above the shop. Was hoping to get a preview but it was closed. I would say unless you arrive very very early, you might not get in/get served judging by the queues for the shop yesterday with a one-third full stadium.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

When does it open?

As soon as they can find it

A pair of Stewards told me it could only be accessed by first entering the ground -WTF!! I know it only holds a relatively small number of people but the club needs to make sure their staff know where to direct people. And on the subject will away supporters be allowed in - I HOPE NOT

 

[c0lz]

Surely 'The Knight bar' Would sound better then 'Dicks bar'

this.

lol a drinking hole called Dicks Bar
what a balls up?

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Probably a blessing that the club didn't provide a bar for us female supporters really, although perhaps they have & nobody can remember where they stuck it. So to speak...

 

[WhingForPresident]

Ahem...

Is it just me that thought that said "Prick's Bar" on first glance?

 

[sir albion]

What a stupid name for our bar

We get enough grief in brighton as it is.so have a sucky dick bar is not good.

 

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

I like the name. It gives it an informal and relaxed feel. There is a Dicks T Bar in Val d'Isere with a legendary reputation and a great atmosphere - let's hope this Dick's Bar can emulate it.
