I don't mind people selling out for a pound of flesh - but selling out for a free pint, a dodgy plate of chips and a few piccys of local celebs plastered on the wall?

Is there nowt sacred?

We get the picture Tealeaf.....you don't like Wetherspoons......you believe that you are too good for them....they are too provincial for you.
So why keep on about it?
No-one is going to force you in there.........and at least there is one thing we can be sure of....if we do go in there....we won't be meeting you! Hallelujah.

They must only wheel out the VIP's for the official opening ceremony ;)

The local football league club seemed to be well represented :)

In what way, Dave? Players present on the opening day or memorabilia on the walls?

Andy Proctor was part of the offical opening team and at least a couple of members of staff present although I had to text one of them and ask who dressed them :D

Ok, I won't ask who! Sounds like a reasonable place to have my postmatch pint, while I'm waiting for the X41. :)

Yes, the thought of bumping into him in there might put some people right off the place.

What about the local stuff on display, Bernard? Anything Stanley related?
