Re: away pub at hillsborough
We didn't enjoy our last trip to Wednesday last season (as far as local hospitality was concerned). I think the Horse and Jockey last time was the one full of Wednesday meat-heads. Not very welcoming. So, this year we decided to do one of two things.....
1). Park up near Bramall Lane, enjoy a pint or two and a meal in the Vietnamese rice and noodle restaurant near-by (really good stuff there!). Then tram it over to Hillsborough. Or.
2). Go to Wentworth (recommended by an LTLF member and used by us for the Barnsley game last season). We chose the latter this time, but were disappointed to see new 'no football fans' and 'no buses' signs at the pub (George and Dragon). We went in for a couple of drinks and were told that this normally-welcoming pub had been told by the police to discourage football fans because of the antics (not of Reds fans) but of Wolves fans who last season turned up in three bus loads already p--sed and proceded to cover the village in broken glass and urine. Scum. Just thought I'd warn those of you who go in that huge bus sometimes. I think they'll still welcome you if you phone first because you give football fans a good name. The guy who owns the shop opposite the pub (does great buuties) thinks so highly of the reds that he bet on us beating the Owls yesterday.

We just had beers in the City Centre, then got on a seriously crowded Tram upto Leppings Lane. It was fun, good banter on the tram.

Yeah I went to the pub up the that bloody hill !! Nice enough place and some decent Wednesday fans outside, taking interest in us and all hating Sheff Utd. Went back after for a few.
When we asked the police that was the place they were sending all away fans, one of the locals said in 30 odd years they only had one major bit of trouble with away fans and that was the wheel pinchers who claim to never walk alone.

Just got back from this pub. Full of Middlesbro fans but the barmaid has the biggest tits i've ever seen. Her face wasn't great but they were literally bigger than my head.
