Does anyone know anything about this Arena? Can you get a beer there and is it standing or seating?

It's the one with the running track around it next to the stadium. Seating for around 6,500.

Tried to find out about beer, appears facilities are thin on the ground. Possibly need to go into the National Squash Centre next door.

It's both standing & seating, but it depends which stands they open. There is a catering outlet under the main stand, but I don't know if it sells alcohol ?

The good thing is it's opposite a tram stop one after the Emptyhad if you're travelling from town. But if your driving i'd advise parking at Ashton Moss for free and getting the tram. It's 4 or 5 stops away.

Thanks I think the train might be the best way. Then I can have a few in the Salisbury on Oxford Road!

The Salisbury is a good shout, decent pub and as you say handy for Oxford Road. A bit of a schlep to the ground from that side of town, perhaps a cab if there is a few of you, or the Met from St Peters Square?
