Is the old wednesdayite car park going to be a retail park? If so, and the fanzone works, then maybe they will take a unit and create a Wednesday bar? I had the same thought yesterday, obviously they’d like more room than they’ve got down there at present but you feel that’s been done temporarily to gauge interest And from what I’ve seen so far, it’s been packed out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freshfish Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Little acorns. Well done SWFC ... just like the new 'Managers Preview', small changes that together create bigger and better club satisfaction. Seems like we have some good people behind the scenes now.

They just need to grasp the bands/artists that they book need to be better. Local bands with a profile locally, and a social media reach would help bring people to the fanzone and make it busier and more of a success if they were playing rather than some bloke doing covers. Proper bands make Fanzones succeed - as seen at other clubs. The two lads on Wednesday night were OK, playing covers that people knew, and they probably did it for nowt. I'm not sure a local band playing their own songs that nobody knows would be an improvement. No criticism from me, people were spending money at SWFC, enjoying themselves and it's working ( in the good weather at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck Rogers Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 This thread feels like I've gone on one of those investor forums where institutions pay weirdos to bash stocks and spread FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) to get people to sell their shares. The Fanzone is a brilliant addition. Life without Fanzone = £0 Life with Fanzone = £more Don't listen to the Fanzone derampers. They obviously have an agenda to see it fail. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if your Fanzone is packed out then you can do that If you need your Fanzone filling you put local bands on there and get them to spread the word via their social media networks as they have lots of local reach to Wednesday fans - therefore it cements the idea of the Fanzone being a good one with the Owls fans more Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They serve it free to the the ladies of the coach and packet of quavers chucked in as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
