    You were so close to The Coopers, my favourite.

    I was in there, amongst many others.

    My match report pretty much mirrors DT's.

    Nice quirky little pub, sometimes a bit of a performance getting served when its busy though. My youngest lad used to be mates with Dale the landlady's son. I think Dale is eventually going to take it over. They have some great fancy dress parties and beer festivals there and they have an open mic folk night on tuesdays. The name comes from it's origins as a store room where the brewery workers used to spend their time off and it evolved into a sort of club and then eventually into a pub. There's always a good choice of beers and a friendly atmosphere.
