Title: Will the bar...
Post by: Jimmy Hill on November 14, 2014, 05:29:33 PM
...have a name?

Or will we just refer to it as the bar? Or the community centre (which sounds like a bar in Dalston)?

I like the way it encloses the ground, it looked good to see people virtually on top of the pitch all the way around on that end of the ground with the opening of the new morsoleum terrace yesterday.

Beer to start as the same I believe, but if it's not selling/doesn't improve then a fan vote to pick beers may happen.

Very good point.The new CSH makes the whole ground look much better, from the popular side & both ends.

I believe that this was an idea thrown up during one of the initial post-it pads brainstorming sessions, however it was surprisingly scuppered by a lack of support from the sporting/activity groups involved in the extensive market research that was carried out.

I understand that carpet bowls was the exception.

Carpet being a lot harder to keep clean was probably a factor. Having nowhere to sit might be a problem.

In an ideal world yes, but a lot of fans don't bother posting on here. More have access to email than use this forum.

But people who are asking CSH questions on the forum do appear to have access to the forum, and people who don't have access to the forum won't see the suggestion on the forum about sending an email.

While most don't post, lots do read.

They might be interested in the answers even if they aren't going to ask a question.

A thread on here is much more efficient as it might prevent people having to answer the same question over and over again in separate emails.
