Got to the Valley an hour before KO so thought I check out the Fans Zone for the first time. Was served within 5 mins and beer was overpriced but knew that before hand.
Can see why people use it and fair play to the club for putting this together considering the amount of pubs within 0.5 miles of the ground that have closed over the past 20 years.
Don’t think I’ll use it again back to drinking in Woolwich pre match.
Credit where it’s due yesterday. Got served quickly in the bar twice. Although the pour left a bit to be desired. Head like Humpty Dumpty on it. But you can’t have it all.
Went down half time at about 36/37 expecting hell and got served in 2 minutes.
One swallow and all that but a good start. Good luck up the arse whoever gave it.

Half time was a shambles. Went down shortly before half time as usual, only to be met with quite long queues and being told that they cant serve until half time. Some gibberish about licensing? Nobody seemed to have a clue from the guys in suits, and the security people had to calm a few annoyed down ! common sense says either dont open until half time, or realise that the fans bar is just an extension of the concourse areas, where you can be served before half time

The concourses you cannot see the picth from so the licence in football grounds allow the sales. The Fans Bar you can see the pitch so no alcohol can be served all the time the actual match is being played

There are blinds pulled down, with barriers also in place to stop you going near windows. And if that is the case, why are you still allowed to be in the fans bar a good 5-10minutes AFTER the second half has started ?

Surprised Fans Bar allows that kind of action.
Yeah i might give it another try with those changes.
Bartrams was pretty good yesterday. Walked up at 11:30. Got served straight away. A little wait for the second but a massive improvement.
We went in there because of the crap music being played in the fanzone. I know I am old now but surely we can get something a bit more multi generation?
Finally, did go to the fanzone for a pint afterwards. Got seved pretty quick but sadly no meantime IPA on sale (in spite of the price list indicating so).
