I think that’s what we all need to acknowledge, it’s a work in progress and as long as the feedback is taken on board and changes made, it’s happy days. We have the debate about a new stadium time and again on here but that’s a pipe dream. What I would like to think isn’t a pipe dream is some investment in to the facilities around the fan village. That is something that can pay for itself. Having it mainly based in the players training facilities isn’t ideal IMO and they need to try and utilise the outdoor space more but at the same time shield people from the elements when needed. If they grow the food and drink options over time then they can bring some good income in.

Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"
I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

Give it a wide berth, the Warriors get zero income from it!

| Well surely most Warriors fans will? It's not like there's no other option nearby.

Definitely up until the long gap away from the DW cause I was talking to the main chap regards lack of cash payments.
Point now being its great things seem to be more 'in house' than previous. I can understand why they did it until they had the infrastructure in place.
Just need get rid of "Benny Burgers" and we'll be reet!

| Quote: MattyB "Went into the fanzone again pre and post match. Very busy inside and a good number of people outside on the running track as it was a pleasant evening.
Once noticeable difference I saw was the running of the bar, in games prior the bar was run by a third party company.
For the Wire game both bars were ran by Wigan staff (at least one of them was a player from the ladies team). Great to see as hopefully all takings and profits go directly to the club.
With regards to the food we had Ben Westwood's burger van outside. So plenty to work on from that respect. I believe it is work in progress and will only get bigger and better for the remainder of this season and into next but it must be having a positive £££ going into the club which is great.'"
I went with my nephew who was up from Dorset with his son. He absolutely loved the concept.
We didn't buy a burger from Ben's van
