The fact that Carling is still produced in the town makes a mockery of that statement. You take the best water yet still manage to churn out that shite? 

Still, I bet the microbrewery scene is thriving around those parts
Burton Ales were not just brewed in Burton. As a teenager I loved a Burton Ale I think brewed in Essex. 
Ind Coope wasn't it? In Romford?

They had the licence to brew the stuff.

Bit unfair if you've got magicians able to purchase tickets.
I love typing on a phone, it does a great job of making me appear as a dyslexic yokel. Or maybe I am. 
Exactly the same here. You could probably pick apart most of my posts. Especially when the ridiculous 'autocorrect' kicks in sometimes. Player names are a cսnt
It’s true. Paqueta keeps being autocorrected to cսnt. Not sure why.

There's some great pubs near the station

Went there for a friendly against them years ago, and some bloke went through the turnstile and then asked if he could be let straight back out. I reckon he was trying to do the 92 grounds thing and had something to get to.

I'm quite surprised that one or more of the local breweries have not set up an "Away Fans Zone" close to the ground.

OK, maybe "not surprised" are not the correct words, maybe they saw a marketing/selling opportunity but the fuddies on the local council poo-pooed the very though (of "outsiders" and all that money pouring into their obviously over-stuffed coffers).
You know when l said you only post utter bollocks 🙄

Got my train sorted once the date was confirmed. £26 return was too good to turn down considering Liverpool is nearly a ton just a couple of weeks after. I'll log on at 12 and see how quickly they start going. Bit odd that they have put Liverpool on sale at the same time.

1,630 is an excellent away allocation for a 6,900 capacity Stadium.

Great shout fella.
