Fan zone at Hillsborough?

Not bad for starters I reckon!

Once the proof of concept has been proven to be worth it I can see this expanding rapidly to a much bigger area

 

Could they go all the way under the North stand? 

Probably need some remodeling

based on how many are wearing shirts, there home crowd figures etc , we need to do far more to get young kids hooked ,cant rely on the bolding 50s 60s 70 year old supporters forever ,this is the reason why our away supporters travel in such good numbers yet our home support is pretty poor compared , name a club what can easily sell 25% of its average home crowd for an away game within 100 miles? 

They have been much better at this since I were a lad. They used to let u15s in for £5. And now im bloody 40!

The club has been doing this already.

 

There’s been a little area for kids kick around, and a bar and some food (can’t remember what exactly).

 

Its not a new idea even for Wednesday. Maybe it wasn’t given much support by the fans?

The club has had a much scaled down version of this kind of thing


This has bars, places to chill and live bands on

its a good 3 years since they did that , and this just looks like a bar area with a bit of music playing at the min , cant see any activities , ie mini football for kids at present ,but maybe they will for the portsmouth game.

Not incorrect.

 

From the club site, as posted by you…

…“This is the first outdoor event of its nature at Hillsborough for some time”.

 

They’ve done it before,

 

But for whatever reason, they didn’t keep it going. I suspect lack of support based on the few times I was there. Hopefully it’ll kick on this time.

And I’d expand it all the way behind the N stand (once the junk’s been cleared away).

I wouldn’t say totally different.

From the photo and much of the write up, it’s pretty much the same, but I do acknowledge that “a rooftop stage where local artists will perform” could be transformative. I assume that local artists are already signed up.
