This stuff any good?

I've had a few non-alcoholic my favourites were Mahou and Lucky Saint. Thanks

yes - the Estrella Free Damm is pretty good, and for me it’s much easier to get hold of than Lucky Saint ( which I also think is bloody good for an AF beer ). Other ones I like are Brewdog (Nanny State, and Hazy AF), and the Brooklyn Lager one..

I also just found this website, which looks really useful... https://steadydrinker.com/start-here/

On the standard stuff tonight so made a small dent in this. May as well drink some of the stock saves going out. It's a 1.5 ltr if your wondering why the label is upside down. Not just for our Australian viewers.

The Griffin Irish pub in Modena is converting its stale beer to beer vinegar, not one to drink but great for your fish and chips. One for our breweries to try.

Being a Bolton fan, you could probably start one in a telephone box. :D

My brother was a General in MCB (Mongy's Cuckoo Boys) - non-PC and I won't explain the original if the name suffice to say he was pretty handy by bro (he's a social working now!).

One time we were playing Sheffield United at home (that had some top boys too) and they were ripping seats out of the Burnden Stand and skimming them off the terracing in the Paddock where I was with my bro. These were the old wooden and metal seats, not the plastic one.

Anyway, the Blades fans entered the Paddock en-mass and my bro goes steaming, 'come and get some you Sheffield cūnts'. then our Dad in the stand above sees my bro (Andrew, for twas is name) see's our Drew laying into the lads and shouts top note 'Andrew! Home!'

God he was embarrassed, we were wetting ourselves, fight not really started probs plods got there but our Drew got a right bóllocking at home after.

Happy Days, fighting and maiming!

The good old days, when Bolton had a side. Btw, the best thing you ever did was take Owen Coyle off us, we’ve never looked back (Apart from a period under Brian Laws and Eddie Howe). Still, onwards and upwards. :D

Coyle was a player at Bolton, and extremely unpopular, had his own chant 'Owen Coyle, Owen Coyle, Owen, Owen Coyle, he hits the ball, it does fuk all, Owen, Owen Coyle'

Then he saved our bacon, 1-2 away down to Gretna (but at home, game was switched cos Gretna wanted the money from a bigger gate) I think 5 mins left of so, Coyle only scores twice, 3-2. Hero after that.

TBF I though he did quite well for us as a manager, and conducted himself superbly when Mwamba was in collapsed on the pitch at Spurs and spent all that time in hospital etc, then we lost 5-0 to Stoke in FA Cup semi, and after that it was all downhill.

Still going downhill....

Very nice Sancerre rose, proceeded by a nice v and t. Now considering the 8yo expression of Lagavullin

Tbh, I thought he was a decent guy until he abandoned us mid-season and took all the club infrastructure with him. That f*cked us up big style, but in the end we got Sean Dyche and since then it’s been up and up and as long as we can keep him, we’ll do well. Since he came to us he, and his team, have created 5 England players from relative Journeymen; Tom Heaton, Nick Pope, James Tarkowski, Danny Ings, Michael Keene and Dwight O’Neill will be the next. Not too bad for a club our size.

No doubt you'll remember the 2-2 at Turf Moor when McGinlay never gave the ball back after an injury and stored. TBF the Howard Gayle tackle earlierwas a bit OTT, and set the tome for the game' He broke young Nicky Spooner's leg and ended his career and said after if he'd meant it he'd have broke both his legs.

Atmos was really malevolent, nowt like these provincial Lancashire Derbies for proper ill-feeling! Never saw us lose at Turf Moor, in fact to Burnley at all. Once saw Jim McDonagh, our keeper score with a long kick in a 3-0 win, it was windy (and wet) and he'd been trying it all that half, Burnley keeper was a bit dense not spotting that one mind, the whole crowd was waiting for it.
