I'm intrigued by how they get around the single use plastics thing with these, are they going to trust football fans with actual glass?

:cautious:If you have a few too many drinks and keep the magnetic bases please don't walk to near the kerb. You may get dragged into the road when a vehicle passes.
Although you might get a free ride on the side of a bus as it goes by.:whistle:

We should bin off that whole making the away fans feel welcome bollocks.

Fucking blue lights and Chelsea songs for the twats when they visit. No thanks.

Whilst i agree to a point (baring in mind we don't know the full details) but the reason i'm guessing is less about making them feel welcome and more about building an atmosphere (which is partly what THFC are selling) it takes two sides to build an atmosphere.
Get the away fans going you should in theory get the home team wanting to drown them out.

I don’t think we’ve done it for that reason. It’s business innit. We’re building one of the finest stadiums in the world and you want all fans talking about it and shit. However, from a fan point of view, I think we should be blasting out Glory Glory with state of the art projectors showing a loop of all the fouls Dier did at the battle of the bridge. That’d be my preference.

Also, on your point, I think it’s much better to try and make the away fans as uncomfortable as possible (as we home fans should try and do for all visiting teams and supporters) but, like I say, I understand why we’ve done it I just disagree with that particular aspect. Not that it really bothers me (well, until we’re 3-0 down at HT and I’m pissed off knowing that the chavs or whoever are lapping it up with all their home comforts)

I think you're both right, that's certainly the impression I got when I asked yesterday, I think they want to build as much atmosphere as possible in the stadium but at the same time they want more fans to feel comfortable and spend more money so they can maximise revenue.
