Order from your seat at Bloomfield Road!

But how do you collect your drink. Is there a section of pre poured pints you can pick it up?

You get an order number and go up and give them the number. I'm not sure if they call you over when your order's ready like McDonalds, or they prepare it when you get to the counter.
 
I’m on O2, absolutely no chance. Where do you pick up your pre paid drinks? It’s chaotic enough in the west stand bar already. Hope it’s not a disaster, but it could be.

Yep Vodafone seems excellent, my brother has it and no issues. I am on Tesco Mobile which utilises O2 and the signal is very very poor. Text messages just about get through but nothing with any overlay like WhatsApp. Hoping our new WiFi sponsor can install AP's over the coming months.
 
Scanned the QR code - Leslie App loaded - error message! Needs tweaking plus the QR code is on the BACK of the seats so you have to crouch forward to even get to it!! Good idea BUT...

Doubt they'll be using yayzi, hardly any areas available with it yet.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to pop on here and give this a quick reply. We're going to be covering the whole stadium with Free WiFi. We've put 20Gbps fibre lines into the the stadium already, and 1Gbps going to the hotel, we've put WiFi round the hotel and we've got WiFi in the hospitality areas.

We'll have the rest of the stadium covered within the next couple of months.

We also have many more areas going live for residential broadband, parts of FY1 are live at the moment, and areas in Bispham will be live in the next couple of weeks.

Thank you for confirming this.

I did a project at AT&T stadium a couple of years back and then the new 9ers stadium in Santa Clara.

The access points were the key to all of their commercialisation. I tried the QR on Saturday and of course failed due to no data connection and no wifi canopy.

Cheers, sounds good.

I was looking into it for the home as mine runs out in April, so I thought I'd check but sadly nothing where I am yet. Which is when I tried other postcodes to see and was surprised there weren't many live yet.

Your website mentions faster Britain network and utilising existing infrastructure to minimise disruption and deploy this fibre faster.

Given its to the door is this a complicated process and is there such infrastructure in place to deliver it across the ares you operate in? I believe In Blackpool they used to use the old telewest network of cables...

How long might it take you to reach all of the areas mentioned on the website?
 
Was in the North on saturday and it looks like they are investing in some of those machines that pour 4 pints at a time although they were not up and running on Saturday.
 
On a related note I posted this on the matchday thread - is this going to be a new bar / hospitality area? It's at the back of U / T. PXL_20220122_155601424~2.jpg

If you haven’t got a wifi connection or 4G it won’t work as it is a direct link to a website

If they can provided good wifi across the stadium for all supporters to use, it’ll work well from technology stand point. They just then need to sort out the logistics of collecting what you ordered.

It works brilliantly with crowds over 70k-80k in the US so should be a doddle with 10-15k 👍
