i have been asked by the steward of batley irish nash (hull k r supporter) to let all hull k r fans know that they will be made very welcome in the nash for drinks before the game against batley or if you wish to stop off on your way to any other away game.

'Babes in the Wood' will be my port of call

I like that place next to the station, Cellar Bar I think.

Ive always found the Pink Pussy Club above the off licence very accommodating!

If you're stood in the stand at the top of the slope - behind that stand to your right are the best pies in the whole of Rugby League. Nobody else comes close imo.

These pies you rate so much. Are they fake or pukka?

I can see you being a gastronome Lord Pickering.

As an aside, why is it so hard for clubs to actually sell decent beer and food?

The Stoop used to have a bar with several real ales on hand pump, add in a decent local farm shop type pork pie and I'd have a pie and pint every week instead of buying a bottle of water now and again.

I'm not saying it should totally take over from what most people want, a few largers but why can't it be added?

I seem to remember the beer and grub been better than avarage when Rovers played at Fulhams Craven Cottage ground. It's maybe a southern thing ?

Presumably difficult to keep beer at grounds in good fettle because the pumps will only get used once a fortnight

You keep the pipes clean, jobs a good un. Our problem is we sell Worthington keg. All gas and froth. With countless excellent microbreweries in Yorkshire supplying a huge array of outstanding ( imo) cask conditioned real ale, there's a trick being missed by someone somewhere.

Neither, mercifully. Just good quality pork pies and far better than the norm.

I'll second that. I always look for the Batley away game first and make sure I'm not working, just for the pies. Best pies in Rugby League bar none. Proper butcher made as well AFAIK. None of that Pukka rubbish we get at Fev.

Looked to be boarded up last time I passed.
