Does anyone know his background?

 

Remember a picture of him that got posted on here, showing him younger in a suit - so imagine that his behaviour changed since he was known at the football.

You mean he didn't come out the womb with a 30 year old Fox Leisure Tracksuit top carrying a Sainsbury's carrier bag?

[Ted Maul]

They really are useless aren't they.

 

Stick some decent food and beers on and they'd make a killing.

Even more reason to arrive early and stay late you say 🤔

But it's imperative that I leave at least 15 minutes before the end of the game so as to beat the traffic I reply  

Beat the footfall and get to the fanzone to get the most out of the additional post match hour!

The only Fan Zone we want is that bloke from the Leeds game back.

 

"You are crying into your Hovis, my son!"

‘Whats wrong with ya Leeds!’

They found it difficult getting him out with that blue Leicester jesters hat on

Did anyone ever work out what the "local" beer was in the concourse?

[AjcW]

They could have had two really cool local street food vendors and a pop up bar from Everards or someone similar.

 

Just another indictment of that outrageous contract we are tied in to with Compass group.

Look, I love a pile on the club as much as the next FT div.

 

But it’s small lurch in the right direction to creating a bit more atmosphere pre-match that hopefully translates to the stadium.

 

Let’s wait to see how shit it is before we batter ‘em.

 

Besides, it’s only a trial. By the time the permanent fan zone & stadium development is complete in 2050, they might’ve actually got it half-right.

 

 

Kind of doesn't matter if it's sh1te, as long as there's something to build on, my lads 7 and any stuff like this he'll love it, he enjoys being with Leicester fans more than the game it's self. He's desperate to meet filbert fox.

[Lako42]

It's essentially a Chang tent. 

 

 

Why would I want to buy one of the worst beers ever made and drink it out of a plastic cup in a carpark in December?

Possibly you'll need to leave 30 minutes before the end so you can have a good 15 minutes in the fan zone 

 

It's called a win / win scenario end game my friend

I suspect it's Fosters

Tigers do this stuff so well. 

 

 

They're great at it. That bar area you can walk in and out of pre match with local beers, selection of decent food/drink vans outside. TVs with other games on, the team walk across from the hotel etc 

 

All things to actually get you there early. Unlike us where it's a free coconut, the offer of some flat overpriced beer and being touched up by a security guard

yeah agreed, it's genuinely very well done 

[Lako42]

Tigers have a band on in the concourse after the game and it's generally very well attended. 

 

Octoberfest / Christmas/ other special days all have big things in the square outside as well as in the concourse. It's just really good and a great atmosphere. 

[UniFox21]

Even Fulham do more than we do to get people down early and into the ground, with cheaper beer like an hour before kick off

Reduced to £58 a pint 

[Tommy G]

I think if we had kasabian, hand crafted pies and a micro brewery people would still moan. 

 

Saying that, won't get any of my money! But its a step in the right direction that can hopefully be finessed after some constructive feedback.

Would all be great if you didn't have to watch the Tigers

Bye bye, Red Leicester Sausage Roll.

They should have a samosa stand there selling delicious Leicester samosas!

For a Fanzone to work you need to create new behaviours, with incredible offers. Easy is if it's a new ground and you do enough to blow people away like Man City do with City Square. It's all scalable but I can't see many rushing to get to this unless it is absolutely world class. It will take time, a long, long time but changing behaviours especially of a football fan who has done the same routine for X years is a massive challenge.

 

Good luck to them, but we are about 15 years behind already.
