Had a beer with the butcher last Thursday and haven't spoken to him since then - surprised he hasn't come on to talk about our super trades on Friday.
No prizes for guessing his views on the Brooks/Watts delistings

Club Legend John Nicols used to own a TV/Electrical showroom in the 70s - something like ? Bruce Warehouse.
Anyway he got robbed, but that was OK because he was insured.
But lo and behold they found the tellies in a warehouse owned by his brother.
And of course there is that other rumour that the club got Big Nick off a really serious charge back in his early days in the late 50s when Big Prick had been trying to earn some "quick money".
Big Nick went to gaol for embezzlement in the late 60's or very early 70's.
Caaaarltoon pulled some strings & got him out to play.
I'm sure he was sent to the prison farm up in Gippslland. One of my uncles lived near there & every time we went up there to see him, he would say that this was where John Nichols was sent.
