Pre-match drinking - all change next season

[PeterWithesShin]

We went into the Holte pub , only trouble in there was the rads were on full pelt and it was two deep at the bar.

You were lucky.10 deep at the Sacred Heart.Triple, quadruple rounds, half hour wait
No chance of getting pissed

Me and RedSox got to the Sacred Heart about an hour and a half before KO, saw how rammed it was outside and headed back to the ground. I've very rarely, if ever, seen the Sacred Heart so full that the car park was full of people drinking.

After being turned away (being busy not because I have the youthful looks of a 16 year old) from the Villa half of the Witton arms we walked straight in to the away half, delightful expirience that was, it's strange being a football fan and seeing close up how the other half live, bellends the lot of them, we managed to make it to the Villa half through a hole in the fence.

Chico and I were in the Sacred Heart too and getting served was an ordeal. I was offering people a couple of quid premium for their pints but got nowhere. People buying rounds of 20 pints.....

Fine in The Bartons. Well, until an hour or so after the game when they closed the bar because people committed the heinous crime of singing.

Top marks for loudly singing "We are not singing any more"

What sort of oub closes the bar because of people singing?

[cheltenhamlion]

One with a well populated restaurant attached.

The people in the restaurant area looked quite nonplussed about it all. I felt a bit sorry for the barman, him and the rest of the barstaff had grafted their bollocks off before the match and after.

I think we left at the correct time.

Makes me feel better about leaving after one pint now, as I had a family party to go to.

Popped into the Aston Tavern for the first time yesterday. It's very nicely done out and in the summer the outside part wil be a pleasant place to sit. £3 in mind, although it included a free pork bap which unfortunatley was more bap than pork.

Walked past on the way to the game and it looked dead in there, although this was at about 7.30pm to be fair.

As sparsley attended last night as it has been at any point this season, it was great, you didnt have to queue for a pint.

That's no way to get the muslims into the pub.

By the sound of it, there wasn't enough pork to cause offence
