Silvio Dante Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 This is actually a Yate “Legends” side playing against Man U “Legends”. For Man U, it’s not really Beckham, Giggs, Robson etc. Tends to be Wes Brown as the biggest name with Russell Beardsmore and the like getting minutes. For Yate legends, I’m expecting Richard Thompson, Nick Peare, that guy who cycles round with 4 full carrier bags on his handlebars, Molly the Tesco cat, JK Rowling and Tyrone Mings. Over 1000 sold already 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bainsey Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Tesco shopping without Molly just hasn't been the same. Honestly may even have to change supermarkets because of it - it's that upsetting not seeing her there! A total Yate legend. Fingers crossed she comes down from heaven to make an appearance in the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastonboy Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Does this dispel or prove the myth of a dead cat bounce? (and yes, as a Yate resident, it was always pleasing to see Molly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of lonely old people who were scared, were drawn to him and he gave them some cheer and comfort. Bless em. Can you believe someone complained about him. Now you don't see him anymore. The guy mentioned above who cycles everywhere with plastic bags hanging off his handlebars...I thought he was homeless. Apparently not...goes around filling his plastic bags up, with other empty plastic bags he finds. Has a cottage in Iron Acton and allegedly his gaff is full of the bags Watch out for the ' beggar' who sits by the bridge that goes to the overflow shopping car park. Him and his family, I think Albanian, all scammers. Not homeless... professional beggars. I actually confronted him about it...and he laughed and admitted it. Saying...'
