mattypnufc Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I know people have issues with 'Stack' and the Geordie Shore crowd, however as a fan zone (temp) it's a very good thing to partner up with them. I'm sure Sela's partnership will also be class....it'll look unreal in all truth and the fact that Home and Away games will be screened will bring a much needed boost to that end of town.

TBG Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) I'd imagine the expansion runs along side the fan zone being there. I think some don't appreciate just how long it'll take to expand the Gallowgate. It's not something they're gonna get done in pre season ready for the season start.

mattypnufc Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I'd say they may press on with the east stand/corner potential expansion in that time. I'd also imagine there'll be a proviso of a break point if they wish to expand the Gallowgate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Good news that. People wanted a focal point for chants to get off the ground, this could help with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose there's plenty of room behind it still. But then again whilst it's there I would doubt they'd start anything. The 3 years would leave us just shy of 2017. With SJP a venue for euro 2018 I would of thought they'd want to keep the fanzone for that event? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very much 'Eeeee Chantelle get a photo of is holding me £10 cocktail. Oi mate move out the way' #influencer. Was actually decent though when they had the match on.

JonBez comesock Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 What happens with home games ? tv screens surely the crowd noise / sound of a goal going in will be 2 / 3 seconds ahead Always a tv delay - 🫣 Other than that it’s a great idea 💡 fantastic before and after games Away games etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This delay on the gallowgate would suggest some confidence with the east stand maybe? I reckon they better get on to the phone to that gadgey and buy st J's terrace.

With Mandy putting the focus on food and drink sales in connection with expansion maybe the fanzone is a trial of what expansion would be like in terms of potential revenue?

Superior Acuña Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) They had a fanzone thing outside at Man City when I went away there this year and I thought it was fuckin horrendous. And at least there it's understandable cos there's fuck all around the ground. Not optimistic, hope it doesn't damage the pubs (maybe I'm talking shite).

Stifler Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Excellent news, however it’s important to point out that they say it’s a midweek venue, and with it not actually being a part of SJP, they may struggle with being allowed to show Saturday 3pm KO’s.
