I think the bar could possibly do with being bigger and I kind of get both views. With nobody in it, it looks abit boring but it had closed. I was only allowed in to take a quick picture. If you had 500 fans in there, decked out in clobber, chatting excitedly about the game coming up, you would have atmosphere and you would not see the floor. I guess it is for masses of people to wander in, with muddy feet and dripping from rain, and have a pint under cover... no frills and easy to maintain. My other conspiracy theory is that they kept it cheap and cheerful, can see how it goes demand wise and sales/costs etc and they can decide better what to incorporate when they rebuild the kop.....
