Tsunami Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 There’s Super Mac, what happened when he left was something straight out of the 80’s. We went to Rafferty’s to be amongst normal Radgies. Staggering stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Dog & Parrot is best avoided, aye it plays decent music but it's a student place at best and the hovel you've described at its worst. That Wraith is there before and after every game is extra reason to avoid it. Town Wall do probably the best Guinness in the town now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They serve decent Guinness but according to them the Council decree it has to be in a plastic glass unless you know the owner when a proper glass is ok. Wraith then turns up with SuperMac to give his post match thoughts and in doing so a part of me dies seeing my childhood hero paraded like a side show exhibit. All topped off by a large group of travellers turning up with a black dwarf dressed up in a baby blue romper suit, cable tied around the hands with “Dick the Baby” emblazoned on the romper suit. Ensues loads of laughs, photos and me complaining to the bar staff who were shit scared and me and my mate having to leave out pint and walk out before we said too much. Incredible; I’m still in shock tbh. I'm sorry what? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked in a few weeks ago and walked out as soon as I saw the clientele. Was better back in the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 It was better when the 2 lads behind the bar looked off their tits trying to serve you and they couldn’t afford to heat the place compared to what I witnessed today….. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Anyone going in the Dog and Parrot wants their head examining. Anyone looking for a decent pint of Guinness outside the Irish Club wants their head examining. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually looks better now, it's has a refit but the student clientele is awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was last in in early February for the trebles, only place that springs to mind that does 3 for £6. Usually I'd never go in, it's one of the most popular student places hence the rowdy clientele on a weekend. 32 minutes ago, WarrenBartonCentrePartin said: Anyone going in the Dog and Parrot wants their head examining.

Personally go by this account tbh. https://www.instagram.com/guinness_upon_tyne/ Inside the Irish Centre looks like a depressing auld bloke's social club from the 90s, however nice the Guinness is.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Irish Club is spot on. It’s where the food bank stems from and is left-wing as fuck. Might look grim but the beer is good, it shows the early game and holds events like this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Anyone think football would improve if goal difference came after goals scored instead of the other way around when it comes to separating teams on the same amounts of points? While GD certainly feels fairer (and probably my preference), it's hard to argue that teams wouldn't be going for it more if it came down to goals scored rather than GD.
