[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

*Coughs loudly to attract attention*

I got a right pasting a few weeks back for a very mild dig at Kirkby. Neg rep, spelling errors pointed out, the whole works. I felt like a schoolboy being told off.

Why's Blackpool fair game? Don't we have posters who live there? If so, I hope they come on here to defend their town...

The point I made was that if you can't spell Kirkby, then theres every chance you haven't even visited Kirkby and in no position to formulate such a condemning opinion and and criticise the area to a foreign fan asking for advice. You wern't singled out, I have made this point as demonstrated several times, about journalists and other members.

As I told you at the time, if someone said "Oxfurd is a dump" - I am sure you would mention the spelling. Equally, if someone asked what Oxford was like, and someone who hadn't visited 'Oxfurd' publicly slated the area, am sure you would take issue

Errrmmmmm I was born in Kirkby , but tbh it has good and bad parts pretty much like all towns in the UK. Rugby itself aint a paradise, but there are some decent parts.

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

btw , yes i have been to oxford.

the manor ground with a fence that stopped you seeing the ball when it was 5 yds away

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Now they have a stadium with only 3 sides!!!! you can watch the game for free by standing in the car park

Everton is a local club for local people.

It reminds me of a few years back, they did 1 of them Birkenhead Tunnel will be closed after the game thingys on the PA. Some smart arse behind made some comment along the lines of "Yeah and dont come back you plastic scousers", I turned round and told the cnut my feelings on his comment.

I was chosen innit.

Has anyone been to Rhyl lately? very sad.

Me and the missus used to visit Blackpool, book a B&B for the weekend and see a show, sometimes took her old fella who we pushed in his wheelchair. One visit to the North Shore theatre, her dad's favourite was on, a Shirley Bassey look-a-like with a few others, Robbie Williams etc.

We had to go around the back and take the lift up, as we came out of the lift and up a ramp, the theatre was chocker, all facing us as we entered from the side of the stage, as I pushed her old fella, I spotted a yellow and black line that I thought was keeping the carpet down...WRONG! it was a step down, the chair went over and her old fella shot forward hanging out of the chair, the audience all gasped in horror but I managed to pull him back on the chair, some of the audience clapped me.

For someone else the embarrassment would have killed them.

So Rhyl is crap as well?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

This is sad. I either went to Blackpool or Ryhl on my hols when I was a wee lad. Please don't say Isle of Mann is going into the crapper too.

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Can't be worse than Great Yarmouth.

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

great yawnmouth i believe ?

 

[danzante]

just

So Rhyl is crap as well?

I was amazed as I passed through on my bike a couple of months back, couldn't believe how down the nick it had fallen, the fair has completely gone, just the arcade on the front facing the kids paddling pool.

Having said that, Towyn, just along the road looks bigger and a decent fair where the outdoor market is, our kids spent their summer hols in Towyn, used to put the youngest in a draw, used it as a cot, when they cried we'd shut the draw.

The police last night had a severe hard on for denying access to the ground to anyone who looked even remotely pissed . As I scoffed down my butty outside the working mens club near the away end ( Thats being polite ) I was betting in my head who would get in and who wouldnt . More or less every pissed up late comer got turned away but not before they had the face to face treatment by the fuzz .

I got asked for a light / the time about three times before I went in by a variety of scrots who all strangely enough had gloves on ( No suprises for guessing why ) before I went in I overheard one lamenting that he had missed his chance to " Bang " some oblivious pissed up Blue because there was too many police about .

Its been quite a while since ive traded blows with someone but at that moment I was seriously thinking about it . What kind of bloke plots to crack an innocent football fan who is obvious bladdered ?

I hope we get them in the cup I really do as it will be a different story then and we"ll see if they have the balls when our support is not like it was last night .

To be honest me and the misses go to Blackpool a couple of times a year in the autumn and have a great crack

Wouldnt fancy it from a Footy point of view though
