ShireBlue Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Was it the Nando's at Elk Mill or the new one at the cinema? The plot thickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) It was awesome though wasn't it!!! Perfect chips, cheese and onion pie the best ever known to mankind and jam rolly polly pudding and custard to die for. All this followed after lunch by a visit to BP to watch Alan Groves destroy defences. Mind you, the Chinese restaurant at the bottom of Yorkshire Street, I think it was The New Moon was pretty good too Edited January 25, 2017 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Was it the Nando's at Elk Mill or the new one at the cinema? The plot thickens. Elk Mill. (If that was a serious question.) Served them myself, found SC to be a very nice guy - had a chat about the game on Saturday and then the game that night, his eyes lit up when I said I was a ST holder. I might be on my own in thinking him sticking around when/if investment comes in might just be a good thing. He's balanced the books on the whole over the last 10 years or so, whilst always backing his managers (apart from Dunn...) Going to put my tin hat on now and wait for the abuse to roll in...

If I remember right, the chease and onion pie was sold in slices, pizza style? There also used to be a bakers on London Road, Derker, that sold the most to-die-for egg and sausage buts on oven-bottoms. Dribbling at the thought...

I'll put my tin hat on too, but I agree with you, my preferred option is for additional investment that sees SC still stick around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. We know (I think) that while he's here, we won't get :censored:ed over by foreign ownership. I'd like to think that the only thing making Corney look a clown is his lack of money and with some added investment as well as another couple of business minds to bounce off, it could be quite successful. Here's hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 What's funny? The town is progressing. Albeit slowly. This may be so commercially, however in true bantz style the community shoots itself in the foot once again. <general broadcast> I've had to remove two racist comments from this thread by request, Please could we at least act like we're the most intelligent species on the planet by dragging ourselves out of the seventies? Otherwise, MailOnline is over there... Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be best to just remove it all and tell people to just behave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Butterworth retired and handed it over, most of the regular staff left including the home made pies lady. It was never the same after that. Like the Latics, when the quality goes so does a lot of support. Edited January 26, 2017 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 The Chron is "revealing" that we had potential Chinese investors at the game on Tuesday night. Just your 2 days after fans and social media revealed it then haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Can he own own clubs, albeit in different countries? I had abit of a delve about this. Basically (and not going through line by line) they can if it's not a UK League, down to Northern Premier League Level. It all comes down to conflicts of interest, such as relatives in TV company etc Can't see anything that would cause a problem from an initial look. Still almost too good to be true. Looong way to go yet, I am sure there will be dozens of options for them. http://www.efl.com/global/section10.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
