Breightmet Boy Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Speaking to a DMB at work and he told me his father-in-law was a staunch Wanderers fan and would drink in the Sweet Green before the game. I replied ‘Bit of a lad in his time’? He says ‘No, he’d have a beer in there then go to the game over Orlando Bridge” Me: ’So he was a lad then’ 😂. Nobody did that routine without wanting a bit of a ding-dong 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rudy Posted June 27, 2021 Members Share Posted June 27, 2021 Last time I went in the sweet green I got charged £18.30 for 3 pints of Guinness by the most miserable bar woman of all time. Shithole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted June 27, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2021 I've never been in the sweet green tavern My pre match pub was the General Havelock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnden Pies Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 SGT was a fantastic pint of Tetleys back in the late 80s / early 90s when the landlord was an ex copper I think (had a slight scouse accent but I didn't hold it against him as it was an A1 pint). He also sold Ye Olde pasties. Last time I went in the bar staff had faces like slapped arses, the customers were a weird unfriendly clique and the ale was undrinkable. Such a shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted June 28, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2021 They moved the bar before the lockdowns and it's aright shithole. No cask on when I went in last, no customer in either. I told the slapped arse faced bar person I had to run for my train so I couldn't have another. Long ago I went in the Havelock while I was waiting for tyres put on a company car. That was a bit wild westish, mind you I had a tie on. Landlord thought I was plain clothes and brushed some 'baccy' off one of the tables sharpish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
