It seems the majority of supporters want a MM type bar at the LSV, what about a full boycott of the Legends bar until they do? Well all of the 5ish people who go will need to agree. :wink:

I wonder if folk would then get to the ground early, pick up tickets, meet up in the supporters bar with mates, have a few beers and go into the ground.

If you are having a beer and dont have a ticket you are not going to walk to the ground to walk to a pub to walk back to the ground.

New Stadium : Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:07 pm  
I must admit I find the stewards at the new stadium petty & aggressive. My kids really like the not being open to the elements. I think the owners of the stadium need to look at making the East Stand terracing & include a supporters bar. At the moment its a soccer stadium with an RL team in it, it needs to change to an RL stadium quickly or it will lose supporters, i already make excusses not to go & regret getting a season ticket.

have to admit I haven't been in the legends bar, it just looks a bit too much like an office from the outside.

and the only time I ever drink in an office is when I'm on the clock!! :lol:

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Not possible , the cost would be huge , you are right though , having the East stand as the home standing part of the stadium with a bar underneath similar to the ones at New Craven Park and Post Office road would have been ideal , the away fans could have congregated together and swapped side with the home fans creating a much better atmosphere

Too late now though , they'll have to work much harder now to make it work , they were told all this though beforehand of course , but they know better dont they


All this ' new stadium factor crap ' that attendances always rise as they did at Warrington and Hull

Attendances also rose at Widnes with no standing and many years unfinished, but if the guests are made to feel unwelcome and the show is poor quality the gates will drop no matter what.

We live in a commercial world where we must compete for the reduced disposable income out there, and we are currently doing it badly.
