bars are a big concern of ours at the moment, firstly the lost revenue from not serving to over half of the stadium, and secondly the fact that the unavailability of beer at the ground detracts from the match day experience. this will be sorted sooner rather than later.

stanley store would be great if we could get bigger premises, could be a stanley megastore then :-) although there is no short term solution to this we will be opening the ticket office section of this from monday, using the window near the main stand turnstiles, which should help to reduce the number of people coming in to pick up press passes and other tickets etc. also we are looking to keep the programme selling outside the store again to free up space for those looking to browse merchandise.

the catering arangement is a great deal for the club, and takes away the issues with ordering stock, dealing with unused stock, employing staff etc. current agreement ends at the end of this season, all tender enquiries welcome...

family stand has been brought up as part of the whole package of making our games more affordable. hopefully we'll have something in place for the rochdale game. will be an area of the main stand with no smoking and zero tolerance on swearing.

if ever a question isn't answered please feel free to get in touch...

what about a stanley superstore in the town centre ie where icon is. its shutting down it will encourage visitors and residents of accrington to go in and buy something ...
