The Clubhouse/Scholar/Hermitage

Just hope there's no one taking note of when and where
and putting a few snouts out of joint (excuse the pun!) inside or outside.

What they'll take on the bar, might be offset by what they have to pay the doorstaff.

Independent means independent. Showing allegiance to one over the other in a two club city,
don't be expecting a coke/cupcake party.

Exactly.

I remember the old scruff who used to go in there minesweeping pints and watching the football. He did it to me once, then a fortnight later I bought a pint of Carling, drank half of it, took it to the toilet, topped it up with piss and left it out for him, and watched him pick it up and walk off and he supped the lot.

It'd taste better with the piss
 
Railway Hotel is owned by a pork now as well. His piglet mates go boozing in there. And they don't serve stones anymore...

Shame as the beer is excellent!

Are you sure they are pigs? I felt sure Andy was a Blade, all his mates are (I mean Andy the dad, the older bloke, all his mates are Blades from Norfolk Park area)

Can add the leadmill to the list. Don't think they showed any of our 4 play off finals or multiple cup semi finals did they? I mean they are 0.5miles away from Bramall Lane

A bit disappointed by that as they could have done the same for us especially since the Leadmill is round the corner from the lane.

It feels like everyone in Sheffield has suddenly become a pork fan this week. I have a mate who has never been into football that much and has come to the odd united match with us before, now suddenly saying that if Wednesday go up he will be going to their matches next season. Only if they go up though obviously like most of the glory supporters that shed of a ground attracts.

These are dark times. :(

To be fair The Leadmill has no ties to either club and is clearly doing this as a one-off to make a few extra quid. Venues such as theirs are pretty skint these days and I love the place. I'd hate to see it close. If that means milking a few pigs for some Carlsberg money, that's fine by me.

Hate it. Met my wife there. Hope it closes and is destroyed, razed to the ground and salt poured into the rubble.

Mate I love The Washy, but a 'poor man's Washington' is basically a few tinnies of Special Brew on Dev Green. As good as it is, it's not much of a looker...

That's what you get in the Leadmill and they charge you £4 for it!
 
It's like this kind of thing has never happened before in the city. It's like we are some small town in the middle of nowhere getting giddy for our big moment.
 
Why are all these pubs showing the game on Saturday anyway? Everyone knows all 5.7 Billion of their fans will be squeezed into Wembley! o_O

Pigs at Wembley and businesses in Sheffield try to cash in?

Good on 'em, and good luck.

Scholar is a bit different

All I know is our lass works with a pig who has started going since the revamp because its his mate's pub who is a porky. He's about 24 so assume his mate would be the son.

Imagine having your son come out as a wendy...

The young lad is a rugby fan from memory, although he may have mates who are pork. I have enjoyed beers in the New Barrack Tavern, even though it is close to the stench of the unclean.
 
Ive always hated the leadmill ,poor mans Limit ,it was never in the same class ,beers like piss ,acoustics shit ,terrible for seeing bands ,queueing in the rain ,bouncers are witless no sense of humour pricks awful awful place ,the worst nightspot in Sheffield ,never had a good night there. The final straw for me was when they cut a Stiff Little Fingers gig short as they had to clear up and reopen again for a wanky student ball ,fucking shithole.Hope it burns down ,preferably tomorrow.

The Limit was a one in million place mate, right place, right time, nothing else really like it in Sheffield.

Mind you the main beer there was Websters Pennine Bitter..........urgh!
 
The Limit was unique.

The Leadmill was also a unique venue, it was never a "poor man's Limit", it catered for a different crowd with different tastes at the time The Limit closed.

Should celebrate both venues as part of our music history, compared to a lot of the venues who relied on purely DJs and the latest fashion in music, they gave homes to Live Music on a regular basis.

You weren't supposed to drink it :) Its was for sliding about in and getting all over your Green flash after it had either spilt out of your plastic 'glass' or a fight next to you had sent you flying :)
