welshgaz Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 1 hour ago, underdog said: Okay here is today's fan bar update...u16 will be allowed in free as long as they are with an adult. refreshments to be purchased separate. Adults is £3 entry with a free 1st refreshment or a food item. Please be mindful we are running this as a bar environment with no family area. Also as it really is a basic inside, its not really fit to have wee ones running about as well...please see photos we have already posted as we are trying to be as honest as we can In as little time we are trying to pull this off. Also, we might need a couple of volunteers this Friday afternoon to help arrange the furniture (once I have done loading and unloading it tomoz Without killing myself)...so if you fancy a workout with furniture and have good sweeping, wiping down skills, please put you name below or pm me. Cheers Does a refreshment mean an alcoholic drink? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open to all BP, entrance is on the car park side of the North stand, in between the OEC entrance and the GLo gym entrance if that helps.

Minimal coverage IMO for most fans. The idea I'd have thought is to advertise new ventures as wide as possible, but it appears you are discounting signs and newspapers (Can't see any article in the Oldham Times for example). Could you also point out me where the new fans bar is mentioned on the club's official website? Edited December 21, 2017 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello BP, yes hopefully to see if there is a viable product. i understand your comments with regards to promoting it, but with a week to sort it and with a lot of trust staff still Working with the run up to Xmas, we decided just to run with what resources we had....social media being a very useful tool. printing posters and adverts would cost and beleive it or not, having an access to a printer too. It's usually me doing the printing but I'm off work so relying on personal printers can literally be a pain and ink cost too. so it's social media and word of mouth this time but who knows if there will be a next time to organise ourselves better Edited December 21, 2017 by underdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Of course it’s viable. It will be packed, anybody who thinks different has been listening to corney for too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
