That honestly looks class, hoping they utilise it for some gigs as well.

The fanzone was at capacity, as it became 1 in 1 out. I was upstairs in Ricardo's, & could see the large queue at the entrance, & that the fan zone was packed. There were clouds of smoke, especially at the stage area. A brilliant addition though, as is the satellite shop against the Boothen wall. They said that they had done lots of sales. Some sizes of home tops sold out. I was told that they will re-stock in September. You need either your season card or Ricardo's membership card, to get into the fanzone. Wait. What? So fans who don't have a season ticket don't get access unless they pay (how much?) for Ricardo's? I thought it was open access to fans? |

Having sampled it before and after I can only say a massive thank you to the club for bringing this to the match day routine. Many years ago after a game at Man City (Diouf 1 nil) I came back to this board like a kid at Christmas just hoping that one day we'd have something similar. I can only apologise if I've bored people to tears with it over the years but I just know our fans will take to this in a big way. We were never going to get it under Scholes but since the new broom has swept through the other side of the club it's just onwards and upwards. You can never guarantee a result in football but if you can produce pre and post match atmosphere in a facility like that then you are onto a winner. It's great, really great. 👍 It’s great knowing we can get some things right. I’ve a couple of spaces free in the newly inaugurated SJW fan club….if you’re interested? |

When we sign Tom Cannon I'll take him up the statue.... 🤣 Joking aside I completely get where you’re coming from. It was almost starting to feel like “We’re Stoke. We can’t be given nice things. So we’ll just eat our chips outside the club shop and queue for hours in the concourse to get a flat shit lager.” But fuck that, we’re as good as any fans north or south, Premiership or League Two. And we should act like that and be treated like that. We are Stoke. |

Love the fan zone and in particular the stage but the stage seems a little bit of a wasted space if we are only going to have a DJ playing.
Hopefully they ate going to make use of the stage

It was nice. Opening day could've done with more welcoming weather but it seems a good way to spend prematch
