Dave Picken - just so that the playing field is fairly level - is a person with an "edcuated palate"the same as a person with an "educated palate" ?
Trophy, of which you speak highly, is a nondescript brew with falling sales and "Black Sheep" is an aquired taste, aquired by people who live in drab Yorkshire villages with limited education. And why bother to insult the members of Hartlepool Cricket Club about their choice of beer ? We might want to borrow their ground one day. Last week I imbibed the John Smiths nectar in Hemel Hempstead, (don't ask why), and the week before in Llandudno. It won't be long now before the conquest is complete. By the way I think I am the only man in town who knows that Calcaria was the Latin name for Tadcaster. Also, I hear of a new brew at this year's Munich Beer Festival called "Johannes Schmidt's Smooth".

the Gateman, i have never come across "a drab Yorkshire village with limited education" please enlighten where?

He's entitled to say it ... he's from Huddersfield!

Huddersfield! apologies Gateman, you"ve suffered enough..

I hope this doesn't mean the Banks is going. There would be a riot among us oldies.

We'd never get rid of Banks

Good keeper, England lost in Mexico when they played without him.

Gateman - did you celevrate Yorkshire Day yesterday??

The weather was even Yorkshire-ish for you.

Gateman believe me you don’t want to go to the Munich beer festival. You have to book and rent a place at a table by the hour depending on the tent as to how expensive and then the beer cost about 8€ a half litre. German dark beer is cloudy and deliberately so it takes a bit of getting used to but for the sake of the cause I have stuck to it.

PS Johannes is a Austrian name. Its like calling a Scot English they dont like it.

Robok,

How do you drink loads of Trophy and not get dead fat?

Robok,

Seems to be on a mission to prove that if nothing else trophy does the job you pay ur £2.05 for.

I still like that concoction that was shoved in front of me on Saturday, black Aftershock and Smirnoff Ice mmmmm.

(oh I can hear the Gatemans disgust now)

Still only £1-56 for the best pint of John Smiths in the Country and its just up the road at Horden Rugby Club. Ahhh roll on opening time.

I could not agree more. Absolutely spot on!

Is Coach Elect really Mel Gibson ?
