Hopefully lots more people start moving out of the awful South Stand Bar and into the Robin Park fan zone.

I've not managed to make it in yet as I barely make kick-off times but I'm guessing there are no tables/seats for older folks to sit down?

I for one think it's a great move it's got atmosphere and I don't mind paying a bit extra as it's going into the club.Lets hope we get a good summer so we can get outside, it can only be a winner.

Few tables and seats in there yes. It's not as high quality a venue as the SS comfort wise but feels more like a pre match venue and the staff seem capable of pouring two drinks at once.

Sadly, there are some things that have been brought across.

How much do you think it costs the club to transform the hall into the fan zone? Manual labour laying the floor, movement of tables and equipment & stage. Cost of the heaters, gas to heat them. It all needs paying for.

It's likely there's more cost to transform the fanzone than the stadium company have for the South Stand bar.

There's where your extra 20p/50p a pint goes to.

And another thing to moan about thrown in? Bargain!

Talking about sadly there being some things that have been brought across.
I thought the same as the other poster.

"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.

Re: New Fan Zone open from Thursday : Fri Feb 21, 2020 7:36 pm  
Went post-match last week and enjoyed it. It was really busy for a Thursday night. Good to have local bands on and a nice atmosphere. The Q&A session with Burgess and Bibby was a good concept but extremely cringeworthy - I’d prefer having a professional doing the questioning, someone like Joe Mills etc (appreciate he may not be available). Drinks and food wise, glad they’ve adjusted the pricing.

Can’t wait for summer when they can open up the doors to the pitch and have some reserves, U19s, or women’s games on

I agree about the woman who does the interviewing of the players post match. She is cringey as hell, assuming she's one of the Riversiders women who decided to get up and have a go a few years ago and nobody has told he'd to get off yet? Agree it needs a professional in there, you can even see it in the players faces.

Also.... Love him to bits but please bring someone else out than Greg. He's a legend, passionate (and usually p***ed ha) but it needs mixing up.

Lets get Gilly down, Hanley even. Promote it well up front and the place will be packed.
