Some very sad news regarding Wakefield away on Friday : Wed Jul 08, 2009 10:13 pm  

The pub across the road from the ground has (since our last visit there) totally shut down

So no more 45 minute waits at the bar
No more feet sticking to the floor when you walk in
No horrible stench
No more water down beer


the reason it had closed.....well apparently It never had a licence

Mclaren Field will be most distressed.

Thank fook for that, those people didn't deserve to hold a licence, even if they didn't have one, they didn't even deserve not to hold a licence.

I shall ring up Norris McWhirter now and cement my place into his Book of Records permenantly - the record will never be beaten now.

Bad times, any other suggestions?

For those who simply must have a drink I'm sure there are other establishments.

The non alcoholics who can do without a beer will simply go to the game.

we always get the train in from Leeds and get off at Westgate. We do Boons (free grub from 5.30pm), Elephant & Castle, The Hop and then to the game. Afterwards we do Fernandos on the roundabout near Wilkos
