BcfcDuncs Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Brilliant night and can't wait for more nights like it , club done there bit to get the atmosphere going . But they need to rethink the fans village if we go up . It was so tight out there at one stage , not big enough for 27,000 fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But lets be honest, who would give feedback that says 'a lack of sanitation would improve my match day experience'. Such is the popularity of the fan zone, they really need to think about moving it in to the car park. If they don't, then I think we can assume that the mini arena/basketball development might offer more fans areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope more space, or a different layout will be used when the next step of development is started. I love the Fan zone, but I usually try and time it so I go in for a last drink/pasty and a pee. Next summer it could be even busier, I've been to the Rugby when the zone is rammed. They really need to rethink it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably surprised with both the popularity of it and the fact that so far, this winter hasn't been as cold as feared. Obviously more/bigger bar areas would help, more bins would be useful and toilets as well. The Heineken bar does seem to cause pedestrian problems on Marina Dolman Way with people in the queue.

Worth remembering the fan zone almost came around by accident and was only meant to be for a couple games but its proved a huge success. If we're bulding on/around the Wickes site lets hope we can space it all out a bit as I agree it was a bit chaotic around the bar/back of LS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinMan's left peg Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 The fan zone is great and top marks to the club for setting it up. But on Wednesday there were massive ques for the sports bar but only for people trying to get in and out to the toilets. We waited for ages in the que then got in and went straight the the front of the bar - everyone else just needed the loo! Definitely need a better system as it must be costing us revenue from bar sales. @Mkelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiale Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 If they build the arena right it wold make sense for it's toilet facilities to be at the Lansdown end, so with a couple of exterior doors they could be used by the fan areas without the need to open the actual arena.
