Pre-Match at the Co-op Live

[Rammy Blue]

I don’t think it’s OTT to be moaning about time it takes to get served, it’s a bar ffs. If I went to my local and it took 25 mins, or whatever, I wouldn’t be going back.

Just calling out shit as shit. It’s just a dark bar with flashing lights and loud Abba music in the early afternoon. If that’s your thing, knock yourself out mate.

Don't go then, simple as.

It's a nice idea but obviously not for everyone. It was trying to be everything to everyone. The lack of access to bars meant no one was going to get pissed. I've never understood why they haven't had a covered or enclosed area before.

like other grounds have ?
rags have got a gazebo

I won’t. But if someone asks me what it’s like I’m going to tell them. That OK boss?

There's a very strange new trend on BM of certain posters branding any opinions which don't align with theirs on any club related subject as moaning. This thread is yet another example of that. This pre match option clearly won't be for everyone but it's interesting to read the views of people who were there yesterday. I would only go if FOCs got free beer but it will be a good option for some.

I'd point out to those who are effectively moaning about others moaning (in their view) that forums such as this are for people to express their opinions on all sorts of things. If you can't accept that then maybe forums aren't for you.

Exactly.

Have an opinion. Don’t like it for whatever valid reason. Criticism of the club. Etc. You ungrateful moaning bastards. Look at all the money Sheikh Mansour has spent on the club. Look at all the trophies City have won. If you don’t like it fuck off! But it was only an opinion as part of the on-going conversation on a City forum.

I moaned yesterday because I wasn’t allowed in before 2pm, even though it states on the OS the bar IS open until 2pm, and closes at 2.30pm.

I have always praised the new bar at the back of SSL1. It’s looks, design, and more importantly the fantastic service by the bar staff. You won’t get 1 City fan who drinks at that bar, and there are thousand of City fans that do, complaining about it. It’s a brilliant bar.
