  1. I ran the Golden Guinea in Redcliffe from early 1997 to end of 2000, one Saturday millwall,3pm ko, were in town and we were asked by plod to close, I refused and was told to be careful, was I sure?, do I know what Millwall fans are like? think it was manure vs arse in the lunchtime game on tv, we were very very busy as most other pubs were shut, had a great atmosphere and treated the millwall fans, 20 or 25 of em with respect and got it back. The police van kept driving past the pub REALLY slow every few mins and after its 4th or 5th passby I told them to Foxtrot Oscar as they were only likely to cause grief!!!!!!! One moment summed up the afternoon, 3 millwall fans were asking about how long the walk was to AG and I said a good 35/40 mins, as it was 2pm they said they'd better get going, a father and son who always called into us for a pre game 'thorn or 4 overheard and told them to get another beer as they'd give the 3 of them a lift in 20 mins or so. We took Saturday's money by 2.30pm in the afternoon!!!! Unfortunately in the modern era of social media the "idiot" fans would have swamped us and there's have been loads of grief which is really quite sad.

  2. No it wouldn't. It would increase their debt by £180k.

  4. None of us want the Gas to get promoted but at 50/1 I had to take the insurance bet. Just by me placing it should ensure they fail but given their history of making late successful runs it'd be nice to have some monetary compensation should they achieve it.

  5. Bristol lost 38-34 away to Exeter, 77th minute try completing a second half comeback for the chiefs, shows that if we give 100% we can give the best teams a good game
