Opening a multi-faith prayer room from Saturday. Which this is obviously objectively excellent and progressive news & we should all be proud of the club, I believe the jokes about the timing of this and the correlation with our form write themselves. A prayer room in an Abbey with a Monk in charge and a team that has won Nun. That's going to take some beating, I doff my cap to you. |

Yes in positive news we’ve announced something as pointless as the team in the last 6 league games. |

It’s not going to affect your match day experience is it? |

Yep, the club should never announce anything I don't give a flip about. flip anyone else.

Isn't the point that it will hopefully encourage those who were put off by the lack of such a facility, or even improve the experience for those who already come.
I have no interest in religion but this has no impact on me.

I suspect better urinals would helped bring more in than this.
Hey ho, might get a few more fan engagement type points to make up for the lack of football ones.

Empty room cheaper than new toilets, we haven't played Man U for ages.

I would like to know if anyone has ever been put of from going to a football match / cinema / theatre / because it didn't have a pray / multi faith room. Some locations, such as a workplace or airport I can understand because you tend to be there for a longer period of time. Other locations, I just don't understand how it helps. |

Mass is one thing Father, but the density you'd be dealing with is quite another.

We should see this as another aspect of the club as a welcoming community asset. You would be surprised the number of people from different faiths that do pray regularly; I know of footballers who do so before a game and need to find a quiet space to do this.

I've tried praying before our games this season & look what's happened |
