The Fish

They're top rate and to be honest, the Wylam brewery have more hits than misses imo. There's some duffers but there's some really nice pints as well. Most pubs will let you try before you buy as long as it's not busy. Not any more boss. I mean there's still some rougher parts, but it's gentrified like a mother fucker. There's a beer shop by mine that do tasting nights on the same evening the wine shops are doing theirs. That's a fucking sight mind, beardy blokes looking oh so serious while sipping a pint called Bloody 'Ell and talking about the hoppy notes while ten yards down the street the Tatler crowd are looking oh so serious while discussing the legs on a Chilean Shiraz.

Used to work in a pub in the Sluice where an old bloke would come in and order a "Pntaml". Asked him a few times to repeat it it, but it took one of regulars to explain that the bloke was after a pint of mild. He was from Ashington like.

Birmingham City Blackburn Rovers Bolton Wanderers Brentford Brighton & Hove Albion Bristol City Burnley Cardiff City Charlton Athletic Derby County Fulham Huddersfield Town Hull City Ipswich Town Middlesbrough Milton Keynes Dons Nottingham Forest Preston North End Queens Park Rangers Reading Rotherham United Sheffield Wednesday Just worried you'll have a coronary next season if there are too many 9s or 10s...

This company researches global booze sales. The researchers go to over 100 Markets and come back with lovely lovely* local booze. *usually it's awful awful, to be honest.

That pub I linked to above (the Balham Bowls Club) is surprisingly lacking in pretension as well. I mean, there's a lot of worn down Barbour jackets, thick knit jumpers and overbites. That's South West London though. To be honest if you like your ales, you're really were served round my neck of the woods and while there are a few pubs that are filled with arseholes in Gilets and chinos of a dangerous hue, there's very few properly shoreditch wankers.

Last time I was up the Bacchus had some decent ales on, but it's an odd pub.

Nope, as I understand it we're £30m odd in profit. I obviously don't understand it

Whenever I watch that highlight I swear I can hear Sir Bob start cheering before anyone else.

http://balhambowlsclub.com/ Aye and it's a boozy one.

What about Jakehead IPA, or Bohemia from the Wylam Brewery? If it's just the twatty names that put you off, you're missing out on some cracking beers.

Depends if it's tonic wine or not.

Wouldn't there be plenty of bonuses, instead of a high base wage?

Raddlered

Guessing that Colback, Perez, Riviere were all on buttons

Aye we're all better off with Buckfast Or Stella, or Fosters, or...

Well, other than I think they're both rank, I agree. Stella's got a really strong chemical taste, for me. Never sure if it's the lager or whatever they've used to clean the pipes I'm tasting Every time someone turns up with a pint of that, My dad will drop the old "like making love in a canoe" Dad-Joke

Can't think of a mass produced lager that I actually enjoy. It's either weak as piss or taste like it's taken straight from the ICI runoff pipes. Honestly it's a bit cringe worthy ordering a pint of "Pint" or "Man Machine", but even that discomfort is better than forcing down a pint of Carling or Stella.

Turnover down, but profit up. Is that due to a 10% drop in the "Wages to Turnover Ratio"?

Aye it was Forest and Sheff Wed. Hate Woan, but don't mind them so much I guess because they haven't been relevant for so long? 84 is a bit early for me, I'd only have been 3

The image people have of me because of this isn't very accurate mate.

So our 2nd highest goal scorer has no qualities beside being big and mental? By the way, Mitrovic has a comparable shot accuracy to Sergio Aguero (50%-52%) Having an opinion is only worthwhile if it's based on something The reason you want to move on is because you've been comprehensively tucked in I'm not sure of the value of the smiley faces at the end of sentences, but it seems to be your thing, so in an effort to make you comfortable I'll continue

The food is good once in a while, but the music is way too loud and service is generally poor. Honest Burger, Dirty Burger, Hache Can't remember the last time I paid over £5 for a pint. Mind, I don't usually go for lagers, it's all guest ales and IPAs

Why? I don't mind them myself, I think they've done the right thing in appointing a legacy manager, rather than a quick fix, get us promoted, kind of manager.
