Some on here will remember heading over the Pennines to the Northwich Victoria Supporters Trust Beer Festival a couple of years ago. We took about ten from the forum, were given a tour of the ground and supped some decent ales and generally had a cracking run out.
Well - Pez and the Vics Trust have invited us again this year with the event costing £5.00 a ticket and being held on June 16th.
Can I also point out (to those who may not closely follow Northern Premier League football ) that the Vics could use as much support as they can get right now. The club had a rough week last month and in the space of 48 hours lost their entire coaching team and got booted out of their ground - the neighbouring concrete factory wants to expand!
Apart from that, the club are having a decent season and promotion back to the Conf North is not out of the question!
More to the point - the Vics are a grand old club (older than us) whose Drill Field ground was the oldest in the world till they moved out about 8 years ago - and we've met them twice in the league and never lost They are the kind of club and dedicated fans that football can't afford to lose.
If you'd be up for going over again - and showing some Blades support for a historic club in difficult times - either reply on this thread or drop me a PM.
