    Closed on Saturday after one week. It's only a small thing but it's another example of terrible leadership at the club. I really hope Hughes can make things work but I can't see him sticking around once he sees through the bullshit and wasters he has around him.

    I’m as critical of the club as anyone, but your post is either incorrect due to not paying attention or just totally disingenuous. It is closed for one game and open again the game after.

    It should not be closed at all after one week. Every scenario should be covered. Bet the Executive Banquet with exhausting measures of fine wines and whisky would never be cancelled. Not so long as Ryan Sparks said fans should have a whip round for an hand dryer.

    He joined the forum on March 14, 2022 and this was his first post : https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?threads/article-in-the-athletic.6005/page-2#post-622927, I think he might have a problem with Ryan, seems he likes to attack the guy at every chance he gets.

    Here's another : https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?threads/mediocrity.6038/

    Have they said why it is closed? Maybe a staffing issue or stock ?

    If you cant get the small things right then there's a good chance you wont get the big things right either. Not throwing my rattle out of the pram but it does appear the average fan is not important to those in charge of the club. Spend less time on virtual signalling and attend to the bread and butter of this club,the working man and woman.

    Fine wines in the banqueting suite LOL
    Take it you’ve never tasted the wine In banqueting suite!!
    You can attack Ryan for lots of things but his drive in terms of off the field revenue and fan experience is a breath of fresh air, the fan zone is designed to generate much needed revenue.
    The club is a business, get the money rolling in from the suites, fan zone, sponsors and every conceivable stream. We’re not a charity, Rupp isn’t a piggy bank, more money in = more money for the on field budget. It’s not rocket science and take the rose tinted glasses off regarding Mark Lawn, he might be a fan but he didn’t do too shabbily financially in terms of City and nor would I expect him to BTW.

    Won't make money this week and trust me, the executive/boardroom beverage selection is second to none.

    Not if there are no staff available, he might have jumped in to help for a few minutes but he wouldn't have planned to be working it all by himself

    The Fanzone on North Parade will be a open as per usual. Better beer, food and atmosphere.
