Behind The Goals

[student]

Does anybody know if the club have anything in place for the first home game of the season, to replace the Behind the Goals Bar. Me and my dad have been regulars in here for years and are wondering if the club will provide something temporary for a pre match pint?

Yes. Outdoor bar going in between east and south stand. ST holders only.

[DarrenSQH]

[Sir David Gray]

400 people capacity and hopefully increasing that to 1000 in due course.

Marquee going up behind the East stand at the South stand end in time for the first home game. Club will continue to look for a permanent solution.

It's not been, it was apparently discussed at the working together meeting last night.

I'm assuming it's going to be in the area where the car park is just now in the corner?

Don't think it was announced, but mentioned on the LWT Thread I think?

So it will be full of Partick fans then. ;-)

[Since90+2]

Must be a fair size marquee if it can accommodate up to 400 people.

Excellent. Lobbing bottles at the queuing Hearts, Rangers and Celtic fans should be no problem

Potential for trouble is the first thing I thought of when I read it's to be between the east and the south. Strange place for it and cant see how it'll work for Cat A games.

Hopefully we'll see an announcement from the club on this soon. Season starts on sat and we've heard hee haw about the BTG replacement.

[Sean1875]

Still majorly gutted about BTG closing

I don't think it will actually be between the stands as there is a big fence separating the areas to keep fans segregated.

More likely that what was meant was at the South end of the east stand where there is a fair amount of open space that could accomodate a marquee

[Real Emerald]

I'm pleased something is being done but a marquee for 400 people would suggest standing. Not exactly a replacement for most of the old guys and young kids who are regulars of BTG. It's such a shame that a modern stadium with masses of internal space resorts to putting loyal ST holders in a tent. I'll give it a go and may be pleasantly surprised, we'll see.

Mine isn't that posh

[Hermit Crab]

Can you actually go for a pint at half time? Would be class if so. I know you can't drink in stadiums but would the tent fall under the same regulations? Probably wishful thinking here.

My ST is S43 though, so I'm happy regardless.

I doubt it. Alcohol sales are banned in Scottish football grounds except hospitality.

[Ritchie]

Anybody know if kids are allowed in the marquee?

Agree re the elder punters and kids. Plenty of space inside our stadium.

Looking at the location of the tent in the photo it looks ideal for me. I'm in sect 43 as well so couldnt be any handier
