Good point there Chissitt abouth the pumps.

Maybe even more experienced bar staff. Pulling a decent pint is quite an art and unfortunately a dying one too.

Just thinking back a few years now as to the amount of players ran pubs, Brian Lockwood comes to mind and a lot of the ex Hull KR players of their good 80s era also ran pubs

It's everything to do with the pumps, most landlords/stewards will clean out their lines at least once a week, failure to do so results in a poor pint irrespective of whose pulling it.
Maybe whoever is in charge of the bars are choosing to ignore this because of the cost or maybe just ignorant of the procedure who knows,

Worked a RAF bar for about 3 years and for me it's the cleaning of the pipes, we only opened 2 nights a week so cleaned the pipes in between each opening and we never had complaints. People will not drink from dirty pipes for long, the pain the following day is simply not worth it, that and the fact it is coming in a plastic pot it just will never do well

Come on Vasty, signing Thurston, back to the real world. That even beats my comments regarding Fifita and Graham.

They were out of our price bracket, and if the Zero Tackle website is accurate regarding salary cap values, then Thurstones value is nearly double that of Graham.or Fifita.

I dont think any SL club would have any serious wiggle room without having a detrimental impact of their squad or exceeding the cap.

Overall, with our budget and season ticket sales, I think we have a good squad.

There was never going to be a massive turnover as Chester seems pretty happpy with what he had. We have added speed, size and a bit of depth in the pivotal positions.

IMO, Miller is a good player and is still learning. We have just told the team who finished top to do one when they approached to sign him. He is teaming up with an NRL half back who just cant get regular game time. Hes atbthe prime of his career and probably just wants to kick start it now. I am really looking forward to seeing how this partnership pans out.

Brian still has a pub in Howden, he did have a house close to the Newmarket development but don't know if he still has.

You're going back some years there and as far as i can remember the shop never had a name but the lad who owned it was called Geoff. Bought my lads their first NRL shirts from there, one was the old maroon Manly shirt but can't remember the others.

What's stranger is I've never said anything about you been relegation fodder on the VT what I've actually said is it wouldn't surprise me if Kear was in charge come the end of the season I've said you've recruited better than Widnes, Huddersfield, Salford and Leigh and I had an opinion on Allgood being someone who has actually watched every game he's played for the last 2 seasons he's ok nothing more and when I said I thought you would have sold more season tickets it's that you seem to be the most stable you've been for a few years now with good solid signings ( the days of superstar signings are long gone)

I bet you're fun at parties.

Yep, I must have been about 17 or 18 when I bought it.
Very slim fit now, even before slim fit was thought of!

My wife bought me a Cronulla Sharks shirt from there in about 1984/5 for training ... stood me in good stead as it helped me decide where to live and which team to support when we moved to Sydney in 2008.

doible post

Season ticket got mine, love my club love my City.
Up the Trin

don't think 7 days a week is realistic but match days are possible, also you only have to look at the amount of people waiting to get served shows that the quicker keg beer is to get punters in and away from the bar

having spent the best part of learning brewing it doesn't take long for to lose your reputation do to one clown not cleaning the lines, I had one pub who held our beer in a dry and not the cellar needless to say it popped due to be left in 24 deg heat

there is now a plastic pot is worthy of being served in but they are far more expensive
