Rip the groggers rest

BFC will miss you

 

Haven't been in for years. Are the glasses still filthy?

Ale wasn't upto much either.

 

It would be a tad harsh of me to say good riddance but personally always thought it was a right dive

Not sure about that Bryn.When it first opened as the Yorkshire Man I thought it was a decent pub.The last time I went in about 3 years ago it stunk like a tramps vest.Its the first pub I've been in when the staffs teeth count was about five and that was them all combined.

 

Took r lass there after the crawley game (trying to get her into bfc) she was like where the fook ya brought me wipe ya feet on way out or what lol

 

Went in after Norwich relegated us for first time. Once maybe twice since. Right dive and beautiful exterior

 

Only ever been in once, I thought it was a right ***** hole.

 

I miss sock and lighter man who used to stand outside but I'll not miss the boozer, could have been a brilliant pub one licensing laws changed, should have done it up to a high standard, and had it open until 06-00 and introduced some sort of taxi queuing system, maybe even made it a 80s style burny inn

 

had some good times in there , didn't go in for years after it being a must last pint. was a **** hole tbf and one thing i will never get mi head round, why was it one of the dearest pints in town ? oh and the bear was gash !

 

Been in tonight for old time's sake. Fond memories of Thurs nights as an under age drinker in the South Yorkshireman back in the early 80s. RIP...:-(

 

Of course it's a dive and they ale is ******* ***** but every other satdy between 2 and 3 it was the best atmosphere int tarn,r.i.p groggers,al miss thi,sithi.

 

Had some great prematches in there back in the day. Full of characters.

Regularly have a swift un in there before heading down to Oakwell. Based on location to be honest.

 

that should read beer not bear ! mind there was some monsters in that would be classed as bers

 

This is going to sound ridiculously sexist (possibly offensive) but there was a lass who worked in there a few years back and she had the best pair of **** I've ever seen and probably will ever see. I'm sure I'm not the only one who noticed.

 

ok the pub is a **** hole but it will allways be barnsley ......rip .....wheres the new one going to be ...lol

 

Last time I was in there about 4 o clock on a random Thursday afternoon 7/8 years someone was getting a blow job in the corner. Heroin will do that to a person I guess. Used to enjoy the Yorkshireman back in the day though.

 

dark haired bird is its same one im thinking of

 

I brought a big crowd from London up to Barnsley for my stag do about ten years or so ago. Half the lads were from Barnsley, half were southerners who were looking forward to experiencing the Barnsley Saturday night out that we'd been telling them about. And we had arranged decent seats at the front of the East Upper for the game against Brentford (think Ross Turnbull howler after a couple of minutes). Anyway, one of the lads was coming down from Glasgow and was on the train behind us from Sheffield, so we decided to show the southern lads the glory of the Yorkshireman whilst waiting for him, before getting taxis to the grandeur of the Stairfoot Travelodge. It was about 11:30 at this time and there were about three blokes in the pub.

We'd all dumped our bags in the corner and were stood drinking when three of the southern lads came over looking a bit shell shocked. We asked them what was wrong and they said that they had ordered their beer when one of the three punters came over to them, told them it was a Barnsley pub, to drink their beer and then f*ck off. They sheepishly explained the situation to him and sidled over to us. When we left the pub and got in the taxi, one of the lads regaled the driver with the story. The driver asked whether it was a tall bloke with a moustache and a bomber jacket. When my mate said yes the driver said, 'ah, that'll be Ticking Timebomb'. When my mate asked why he's called Ticking Timebomb, the driver said it's because you never know when he's going to go off! Needless to say, the southern lads didn't fancy popping back in there for one after the game!

This story is told, of course, with full support of Ticking Timebomb's actions that day and I support him all the way...just in case he is a poster on here!

 

wasnt nudger was it ??
