I hope things go well for them whatever happens.

Have to admit have only used the fanzone on 2-3 occassions since it opened. 26/27 WDDDDWWLLL🤨 25/26WDWWDLWDLWWLWLDLDLDLLDWWWWWDDWDLWWDLWWLWWLWWWD.Play Offs LL 😮‍💨 2024/2025LWLWLLWWWLWLWLWDLWWLLWWLLDLDWWWWDDWLLWWLWDLDDL☹️ 2023/24 DLWDDWDLLLWDLLLLWDDDWDLLWLDLLDWDDWLLDWLWLWL but not NLN 😁

Time to get some decent beer in there . All a matter of taste, and their stuff isn’t what I’d normally go for but I find it an OK change of pace once in a while. Now if I had to choose my favourite beers, middle aged g*t that I am, it would have to be: Timothy Taylor Landlord Whitstable Bay Brakspear Gold Bateman’s XXXB Bateman’s Combine Harvest St Austell Tribute What are everyone else’s favourite beers?

It’s pretty impossible to have a pint at half time without leaving your seat after 35 minutes. At festivals you see self pour kiosks, bottle bars etc. Not sure how well these would work if you are only serving every 2 weeks though. If there was a way of selling more beer you would increase income and atmosphere.

I have always assumed Docks made a profit from their pop up bars in the Fan zone, every game big queues with fans often having more than one pint, obviously appreciative there is staff costs and rent to the club, maybe the club has put up the prices? Or just maybe Docks has re-asssed its operations and has decided not to continue I have not been in fan zone for a while, but I have heard from people who had been in that since 2nd half of last season they have only had one bar open and has been understaffed.
