Thursday 11th Fanzone meeting


The meeting was interesting. Russ at the club seemed to really appreciate the consultation.

The capacity for the new fanzone is set at 1000. The capacity will be largerwhen the doors are left open. There will be TV walls. Discussion over the sound, whether to have music or football commentary?.

There are plans to relocate the museum and improve accessibility.

When Dick’s Bar closes, what will happen to the large mural, the large poem Goldstone Ghosts, the picture of Dick Knight and the other special wall decorations ? They have plans to safeguard these and relocate elsewhere in the stadium.

ACTION Charlie to write up some notes from the meeting and load them on the FAB website.
