To make the Embo desirable add a chaser

Used to go in the Embo myself back in the day Sitwell but last visit was about 8 years ago ... fk me you def needed chasers to morph some of the sea pigs in skirts in there into anything remotely palatable on the eye when I was last in !

Bobby Charlton looks dejected and his United team-mates deflated as George Best shakes the hand of Willie Carlin of Derby (Watney Cup Final, August 1970 - Derby 4 Man. Utd. 1.Full article.​

Ah, Willie Carlin, a great player. We got him from Carlisle and he then went on to Derby. According to Wikipedia, our then-manager Arthur Rowley was a bit of a bastard towards him.

The tattoo said "The Brute" on it

It had three, the Superman badge on the end, "The Brute" on one side and "The Other Side" on the other side. He used to get challenged by blokes in pubs that their willy was bigger, so he just used to lob it out which always shut them up.

Sadly been closed down for a couple of years,rumours about it being a Chinese or Thai restaurant appear to be false,more likely to become flats
