Cabbage Patch before the game : Mon Mar 02, 2009 12:49 pm  
Hello all,

Finally got to a game for the first time in 2 years (kids, who'd ave em) at the weekend and before hand went to the Cabbage Patch pub for a few looseners.

Spoke to a few fans in there (mainly all shot to bits) but wondered if any of you were there so I can work out some of the people on the site.

I was at the bar in a big parker and Wigan Warriors hoodie and my mate was in the GB shirt.

Did I see Bilko in there (saw a very tall fella with dark hair and sidies)?

Who was the 'older' bloke who sang the song to the whole bar with about 6 guys joining in for the choruses?

I too was guilty of being in 'that' corner. Great day once again. Love the London away trip.

I'm surprised you remember being in any corner Woody :)

It was fair to say the 'corner' had supped a good few. So who was the guy leading the singing? Anyone on here?

I was talking to some guy in the pub who was talking to me like a long lost friend, then bumped into him in the ground and he carried on. Good bloke, totally trashed bless him.

Probably Scotty or Lucas (warriors_rooster, or whatever rubbish username he uses. can't remember).

Yeah and I think it is fair to say we'd supped a good few :D
