Does anyone know if the club is operating cashless or will you still be able to pay via cash? Been to a few places recently and they operate a no cash policy.

With Beast Burger being situated between the Main Stand and Pontoon, do you think people from the lower/upper will be able to go and get one or will it be restricted like previous years?

There will be no brioche buns left in Aldi or Lidl then. He goes in early and empties the shelves.

Will we be able to enter the fanzone at half-time from the upper for a beer?

I tend to avoid the Trust bar and use that temporary bar in the entrance when it's there instead, easier to get served.

Docks Beers, sounds interesting, anyone know what's on offer?

As previous years - you can’t transfer stands. Other options for Upper/Lower

Thanks for that Kristine, I suppose drinking in view of the pitch would be an issue to be fair.

What was the previous arrangement/ deal? Let's hope it brings a few more pounds into the coffers

Commercial partnership but horrendous offerings.
Rather support local breweries & independents.

This is good for the fanzone, most people will prefer Docks Beers to Carling dog pi$$.

Carling, Coors and Worthingtons.

What a terrible trio of beers.

Ah, so that’s what they are! I’ve been trying to figure that out for yonks.

Great day back at BP today, was a little late arriving so didn’t get chance to sample the fan zone, but I can only echo the comments about the drink selection in the Trust bar.

Carling, Worthington’s and Aspall’s all at the absolute pìss poor end of mass produced beer and cider, and not a great deal of choice of bottles in the fridges either.

It’s a captive audience so people will ultimately buy it regardless, however in this era of constructive feedback it would have been great to have had the option of something slightly more premium. A Docks beer or two would be ideal,  but if we’re stuck with Molson Coors for commercial reasons then something like a Pilsner Urquell (ideally on tap but if not, in the fridge) would be welcomed. I’d happily pay another couple of quid a pint for something that isn’t Carling.
