    I don't actually know where Preedy's is. Never seen it being advertised at all.

    I've never been in Preedy's either and don't even know where it is - unless it's something similar to the bar at MK Dons then I can't see it being somewhere I'd choose to go pre-match over the town centre.

    it's next to the main reception in the ponty. they reveal the signage on matchday. i went in once and it looked fine to me. service was dire, but that could get sorted.

    I go in ponty every week and can't say I have ever noticed it.

    I thought we were installing a new scoreboard? I'm sure this was put out by the club either end of last season or start of this season, cost of £100,000 i believe

    It's on the outside of the stadium. The back of the ponty has the lotteries office on the far left, then the club shop, then the box office, then the main reception and then what used to be the supporters trust's headquarters. That got turned into a kids youth club called something like 'the ozone' and on matchdays it becomes preedys.

    We were supposed to be installing one by October last year but then PC put a stop to it in case anyone bought us because 'you don't spend money on a business before selling it' or something. Then Don said he wanted to have one by next season anyway.

    Biggest mistake the club made, was not replacing the old social club when we rebuilt Ponty End.

    And the only one guaranteed to increase crowds. IMO
