The Fans Zone. Live Band playing which is great but how about turning off the other music that's blasting out the tannoy speakers at the same time? It would be a bit odd to have total silence in the ground before the matchjust to cater for a few fans in the Fans Zone? I didn't mean the tannoy system in the Ground, I meant the tannoy system in the Fan Zone that's pumping out music at the same time as the Band is playing. |

Clearly Topper Gas hasn't ever been to the fanzone, otherwise they would understand. |

I’d like to moan about tall people in the terraces. I’m about 5’10 which is average height. But I seem to be able to pick the spot where the group of mates all well over 6’ stand in front of me. 😂😂😂 It was ok yesterday though because there was so much space I could move. I try to stand right at the back on the East Terrace to avoid my 6'3 19 stone bulk being in the way. Coincidentally it's closed to the pasties. I can see a pattern building here… |

Ah the pub gigs where the bar staff have had to be told to turn the jukebox off! |

I think this is a great idea...put all the moaning in one thread...kind of like a designated smoking zone...

I want to complain that I missed Promises second goal because the service was too good in the East Stand bar and I managed to get a pint at HT for a change

I've got one.
Went in the south west stand for the first time Saturday. Couldn't hear the tannoys at all for the substitutions.

No, this really is positive, put all the crap in one small corner of the forum then the rest is for positive stuff 👍 |

There was definately a problem with the tannoy system last Saturday. Could hardly hear it when it was previously very good. A thumbs up , had a sausage roll and its was excellent and back to the piglets standard of the past. Only downside it cost £4.25! |

Bar prices £6 a pint even shandy's.... a lot less supporters in the bars last sat..it seems like a protest..2 drinks pastie & sausage roll £19 ,thinking of pubing it first,it's a good way to lose fans in the bars also no Tea, coffee or water in West stand,other than tap for water.

Not sure I get this, essentially football is entertainment or that's the theory,if you went to a concert or most other forms of entertainment it would cost a lot more,for some reason it seems Sport in general should provide refreshments at a cheaper cost than other venues. |

Not been to an away game yet this season but is £6 a pint high or about average? Remembering it’s cheaper ooop north. |

Unfortunately it seems thats the going rate nowadays. Even drinking at the Oak before a game they now have 'surge' pricing where the prices go up when its busy which is dead cheeky.
For reference its £5.10 for a gold on their app right now.
