Have you noticed this Gorridge bloke of theirs has copied every thing that we have done that has been a bit successful I.e. the writing on the inside of the shirt for one thing. He can’t think of anything original for himself. Other than the shite palm tree shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't realised he was a Fewer until he mentioned it, anyway, he was massively impressed with the convention, the stadium, the speed of service for drinks and the prices (five and a half quid a pint), was even impressed with The Robins where he'd gone before hand. Clearly not one to be converted, but he did say that the more he visits other grounds, the more desperate the Mem looks. So evidently we are doing something we'll if a Gashead had nothing but praise for the stadium, organisation and even the local area! He’s massively impressed with a £5.50 pint?

Think it was more around the quality of the drinks, in that they had premium drinks on offer, like that beer factory ale, Heineken and Gold, rather than Carling, Strongbow and Worthingtons.

He was also delighted to be offered a loyalty card from The Robins, similar to coffee shops, they are doing a ten-stamps on a card, get a free pint offer. Think there were a few of them that went, so they filled up a card in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Brilliant. Last night I overheard a Sag saying that the loss against Bath City was only a friendly and Rovers had most of their second string out. I heard someone else say that it wasn’t what they had heard, it was most of their first team at Bath. The Sag denied that this was the case and referred to the other chap as a ‘Shithead ***’. Then about 40 minutes later another Sag turned up (who had actually been to Trumpton) and said it was a poor game considering how many of the first team Rovers had out. The bloke that had piped up earlier (The gurt ‘Ted) said “Yep that’s exactly what I had heard” Then the original Sag started losing his shit saying “Well it was only a friendly and you can stop ******* smirking you Shithead ***!” Love it! Deluded Sag brought crashing back down to earth by one of their own. The gift Edited July 15, 2022 by Gert Mare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A strange beer, Heineken. I have drunk it both here and in the UK, draught and in cans/bottles, and I find it tends to vary generally from poor to average. I must say, though, that I have drunk some very nice draught examples, here and, of course, in The Netherlands, so I suppose, like most draught beers, it depends very much on how it is stored and served (cold) and whether the pipes are cleaned regularly! The beer that surprised me, though, was Amstel. I have drunk it in the UK, many years ago, and here occasionally, though only due to a lack of choice, as many bars stock it as a cheap draught beer, sometimes the only one on offer. A few years ago, I was in Spain, where my draught beer of choice is Estrella Damm, a fine beer, but, unfortunately, the only draught beer available was Amstel. It was hot, and I was extremenly thirsty, so, against my better judgement, I tried a glass: it was magnificent, and is clearly not the same rubbish that is served here in France. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
