I wasn't old enough to drink in the old one so I'll say the Hall of Fame.

I just wish they'd get rid of the mezzanine in there, it makes the place feel smaller than it is.

If it sells real ale, it'll do for me!
Bottoms up!

None whatsover taken Andy , Sue was a total legend along with the Bronte Bar (pop n crisps as a young un pre match ) and to be fair the old 'hen hut' on the site of the current bar, holds as many memories...

Training with the ladybirds on a Thurs night , Sues motown tapes , the smell of gas from the heaters , 'Samoan Sunrise Cocktails'(created by our imports that season John 'honest i was going round the roundabout the right way' Collis ,Paul Okesene, and holidaying aussie and 'all round good guy' ,Wariwck Badger RIP ),Carlton Farrell and Andy Tyres singing ' you've lost that lovin feeling ' on new years eve and the mice running up the back of the bar ..loved it ..great memories..god feel old

What about the VIP bar, this was situated under the main stand predominantly for players etc, if my memory serves me. There was also the Cricket Club, I also remember the 'old hen hut', one night springs to mind when a certain Mr Fisher returned with his Doncaster team for a midweek game (circa 1992) when we left the bar at 3.30 a.m. the next day, after witnessing some unreal scenes. However i must opt for the Bronte Bar, a certain Mr. Tom Sharpe on the lighter singing DEWILAH to the appplause of all whom witnessed.
