So will go the OC and then the bartons followed by either A.) Aston Social or B.) The Adventurers for a sing song pre game.

Any suggestions whether to go A or B?

When I was a kid I remember the singing in places like the Witton Arms and the banter we had with the away fans.  Does this exist anywhere around VP anymore?  The only atmosphere in terms of singing that I have found these days is at the Adventurers.  I live in Spain and so when I get over for a game I want a bit of atmosphere and it seems there are not too many options in that respect.  I get the impression that some pubs regulars see the whole singing thing to be below them as if it's some kind of second class activity.  Is this the case or have I totally misread the situation and if so where is the atmosphere these days?

Same for me, although I'm going to the Bartons this Sunday. The chippy round the corner from the Ruskin has been closed for ages now, I thought it was a temporary thing :(
