Aaaaawww, they will be missed !!

Don't know how it's managed to keep going as long as it has. Never been many in when I'v been for lunch there

They must have known you were coming.

Hopefully, at least I got served quickly

Unfortunately,dobbins supporters or not,many people could lose their jobs and that is no good at all.Always wondered how the place on Hedon Road was making money,never seemed many in when i went by.Were these the people who had the dobbins supporters(only about 1800 then)dressed in toytown shirts with a choo-choo on the front.

It was an A4 actually,......now wheres my anorak?

Grown ups and shirts with choo-choos on should definately be kept apart.

So I have to get rid of my "Might of American Steam" T shirt then?

I hope the chef had the right stuff to cook with

Dont know how you could give them your money. Green Bricks has a large kr flag and lots of other teams football and rl flags/posters etc but nothing FC. I will not go in there now and im sure im not alone, a daft business decision to me, if it was in kr heartland i could understand but not west of the river.

Shame,really I dont like to see any boozers going bust but no doubt they will ask all their creditors if they are happy for them to go into a cva and get knack all back on the money owed.
They can then make a comeback and pretend they never went bust in the first place,claim it was all part of a master plan,expand the place to take a additional 5000 punters who have always claimed to have drunk in there and its the best boozer in the world as its name is known all over the world

Thought that was The Earl De Gray?

I also feel for the employees, was not trying to make fun of them. Its extremly hard out there now in the jobs market. But they are rovers sponsers so it was hard to resist.

Supposed to be having our works Xmas do there.....Ha Ha.....glad i said i aint going.

Or they could merge with a boozer from geordieland. take all there staff and management and have there debts payed and still stay were they are keep there name but still recon to be over 100 years old mmmmmm sounds like a plan

It would never work.

Or they could enter a arrangement and screw all the little companys that are owed or sell the premises with promises of a better place and watch as the directors take all the profits......mmmmm sounds like a plan.

When it comes to finance neither supporters can take the moral high ground

Yet you still tried too.

It was a tit for tat comment just to show said comment

The could have one of those heritage plaques put on the wall that says

'On these premises in 2007 witnessed by a solicitor a chief executive and a member of the local media Judas II was born!'

We used Platform 1 and the Boulevard for the 2nd Flash Flannagan game and dinner......Although i was impressed with the room we were given and going back to the Boulevard was brilliant.......I can't help feeling the prices we were charged for using these places really shafted us.

I'll elaborate.......The meal could've been better and the PA was not loud enough to hear Tommy Martyn's after dinner talk......even though I asked them to turn it up. (they wouldn't and flatley refused the request!!!

). The 'stewards' at the Boulevard on the day of the game let a load of folk in for free......We lost a lot of money that day and was charged a small fortune!!!!

Than been said......I do feel for anyone losing work.....I know what its like!!!!

Not entirely correct from what ive been told mate.
The building side of the business has closed down.
Platform 1 is for sale and has a couple of interested parties but will be sold as a going concern as it has bookings for the next 6 months.

And there we're leave it, as it has little relevance to FC and will just turn into the usual slag-fest eventually.
