"NOW WE CAN'T EVEN WATCH THE MATCH TOGETHER ON THE TELLY NOW!" Update: "OH YES WE CAN!"

 Posted '3:00pm bells' Friday 18th September 2020

EVEN THE MOVIN' HEADS HAVE GOT TO 'SOCIALY DISTANCE' AND 

WEAR FACE MASKS IN 'ROSIES BAR'!

With the new restrictions in the north eest affectin' 2 million people, we can't even meet friends in a pub nuw, to watch Toon games together!  

Aa booked at table for 6 upstairs in 'Rosies Bar' near SJP for wor home game v Brightin on Sunday---BUT!---today a'v had 2 phone caalls off mates to say that because we can't sit together, they arn't comin' now!

This will be devastatin news for AALL 'liquid lubrication locations' (pubs!), az they will be forced to torn a group of 6 friends away, for fear of a spot check, and ultimate closure!

I am gannin into 'Rosies' later today (On mee own!) to find oot exactly wot the situation iz, but I fear that they will tell me that anly ONE of us will be allowed in, az we are not related or live in the same hoosehold!

That's one person drinkin up to 6 pints durin the match, instead of 36 pints between us!

It will surely finish off many of the pubs that HAVE reopened since restrictions were lifted and sadly 2 historic pubs, 'The Crown Posada' near the Quayside (The Toons oldest pub, opened in the 1700s!) and 'The Star' on Westgate Road, will be closed for good! (so we hear!)

I will let yoo naa just wot they tell me in 'Rosies' when aa gan for me normal 'liquid lubrications'!

Az per usual, "Watch this space!" for forthaa news! 

Updated '3:10pm bells'

Just hord, aall the bar staff in Fitzys, The Bacchus and not surprisingly, The Crown Pasada have been made redundant! (Aall city centre boozers!)

Updated '4:55pm bells'

Accordin to manageress of Rosie's there are NO restrictions on 6 friends meeting for match in bar!

Sign on door of Rosies

It's not law!
