I don't really understand why a Fanzone would benefit Stanley or how the 40k would be spent.

These are usually areas outside grounds with bars, food and sometimes entertainment, but there is normally not too much to them. What is planned for Stanley's?

Being cynical they are normally a club's way of getting a large share of the pre-match pub trade, but it isn't as though the pubs around the ground are 10 deep at the bar and too busy to get in like other clubs who have these things. With the £40k figure known I assume it has been designed and costed at a high level, so it would be a good idea to share some more detail with fans to encourage donations, as I can't visualise what it is or where is is going to be etc from the text on the club website, and I am not sure that others will be able to either.
