Well, all good stuff and - yes - there is a strong commercial driver behind much of what is listed. However, there are clearly plans to make the 150th anniversary the High Point it should be.
Who is the subject of the proposed statue behind the North Stand? - Ron S?

It's a sculpt of himself, made out of season ticket holders melted down seats.  😉

Well thats a confidence booster for young boys

[PeterWithesShin]

And old men like me.

It's even more distasteful using Young boys

Speak for yourself Ducky.

Yesterday's result:

Swiss Cup - second round
Vevey Sports 2-4 Young Boys.

Vevey Sports play in the 3rd tier of Swiss football.

The YB captain Loris Benito played his first game after 7 months out with an ACL, and keeper was back after being put with a shoulder injury. But they lost their 6'2" Senegalese defensive midfielder Cheikh Niasse to a pretty poor tackle - he's doubtful for Tuesday's game.

We'll be playing on a plastic pitch - something called Polytan LigaTurf RS Pro CoolPlus - whatever that is.

Anybody have a plan where to go for a pint before kick off?

[Somniloquism]

A bar?

In seriousness though, Everton fans did this guide in 2015 and should still be relevant for the general areas if specific named places have closed.

Probably the bar up the road from my house for a couple.

I asked a friend who lives in Bern and they said this place is new and close to the station https://mccarthysirishpub.ch/bern/ I also used to go here when I lived in Bern https://www.cafedespyrenees.ch/ it’s on the Kornhaus square which is convenient for trams to the ground

It sounds like we should asking you rather than vice versa.

[AndyR]

Well it’s been a while since I lived in Bern so I’m not 100% anymore. The old tram depot used to be really good, they have a microbrewery and serve food. I never really liked the Mr Pickwick pub but. I’m really looking forward to the match, it’s been much too long for me!

I'm not going so feel free to ignore me completely, but Irish (and English) style pubs are the very last place I'd be headed on a visit to a city I'd never been to before.

[PeterWithesShin]

It depends if you want to drink and sing or explore a bit I guess. I'd be in the 'look around and enjoy the place' camp, some though will want to do the full 'Villa on tour' stuff.
