Quoted from Heisenberg
I’ll gladly watch Premier League or Champions League games in the pub as I can watch them as a neutral, but competitive England or Town games are too important to watch in a pub for me. If I can watch games at home that mean something, I’ll always choose that option. Plus, if it goes pear shaped and someone in the pub finds it funny that you’ve lost, I find it’s guaranteed trouble. At home, I can just kick the cat (tortoise, in reality!).


I used to kick the tortoise.

Now I can’t catch the bloody thing.  😞 😞


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

of course its the pub thats in the wrong ...not the @rseholes who cant behave like decent human beings and watch a public event without trying to smash something up...

Really decent lot running the market tavern now. Imagine this is so they can control numbers and ensure it’s not a night ruined by too many people in or drunk up nobs.

I must have read it wrong.

Thought it was £5 for a wristband  but you got a free drink? Appreciate that's expensive but helps control the numbers I guess.

Not my bag anyway but each to their  own


The idea of charging a fiver including a free pint is to keep the riff raff out.

So, to control numbers and nob heads you charge £5.00  to anyone who wants to pay it.    With nothing in return.   ?!!

How about £5.00 armbands with the first drink paid for (profit approx £1.50 per arm band.). First 300 ( if that’s their comfort zone) then no more to be sold.  That’s controlling numbers.

As someone who clearly knows them please explain their rationale behind this if not greed.

And a genuine (not loaded) question. Is it the same management as Shuberts/Fiddler?

Haven’t been there for any previous games. So please let me know how many tellys ‘SMASHED’. Look forward to them enticing the higher echelons of the Cleethorpes public in the future. What with it being such a classy establishment 😂😂😂😂😂

Edit:  I was in Studio tonight and got soaked when England scored.

I guess mass bans are on their way.

You need to get out more. Standard practise in most places outside GY for games like this. Keeps numbers manageable
