It was always called Caseys evidently after a long standing Landlord from many years ago - called that early as the early 1970's when I sneaked in there for a pint with my mates from the under 18 youth team after a training session pre season as the barman was pulling the pints about 8 of us in the tiny bar ... he asked where have you all come from & the lad at the front stated the church under 18s youth team up the road - he smiled & served us - as we glared our mate out 14p for a pint of bitter-

15p in the nice lounge on the other side of the bar - almost 6 pints for a £ sounds cheap - I was earning £9-15 p - plus £ 3.00 keep for my keep - plus bus fares to work etc left me with about £3.00 to spend per week .....
