Chewy, how come your new chant didn't make it on to the terracing on Saturday?
Olay, olay!
If you're not jumping, you're not Gas!
Olay, Olay!
Sung whilst bouncing.
Thought it might have caught on?

But not the barbeque. No butter on rolls, no fried onions, and no vinegar for the chips. Guy doing food had gloves on for health reasons, then handled the money as well.
But booze and atmosphere wise, yes he had it sussed.

They were two short on the food counter, for sure. But a good effort by the landlord

Those who went straight to the Cricketers missed fantastic hospitality in the Rack of Ale and a large selection of excellent ales and cider served directly to our tables.
A steady stream of free food before and after the game - pork pies, scotch eggs, cheesy nibbles, baskets of chips, pork scratchings and even l'escargot - well, Dover is in France after all.....and at the end of the evening the landlsdy sent us off to the train station armed with a bag of cheese cubes and pickled onions.
Well done to the Rack of Ale.
If we are playing Dover next season (god forbid) I'll definitely be heading to the rack of Ale again!

Chewy - the 2 of you did your best to get that song going but lets be honest, it was crap. 10 out 10 for effort though  |

In there after the match - great beers and selection of free chips from the chippy next door. Also big thumbs up for the Mash Tun down by Market Square (Dover's first Micro Pub I understand) - midday opener but serving at eleven! PP

Yep cracking atmosphere and the nearer to kick off it got the louder the singing got too, you could hear it loud and clear as we were walking up that steep footpath to the ground, superb day all round with exception of the result but hey ho, we go again on Saturday, Come on Gateshead, Come on Rovers  |

Small, but cozy, Shepherd Neame pub just up Lower Rd, past the Crabble Corn Mill. Beautiful location. 3 SN ales on handpull, plus a guess beer. Really good food at a fair price. 2 decent sized TVs. 1 showing Reading and 1 showing Chel / Man U. |

I've never understood the over zealous nature of food hygiene. Christ, if you have seen the amount of times I've touched food after preparing unwashed uncooked poultry, I must have eaten 1000 meals after touching money. Every hygiene rule I have broken, yet no food poisoning or bad stomach after 33 years....

Well my group of lads had 6 burgers and chip and they were all very nice. Blackthorn, good service, pleasant people, nice weather, great atmosphere. Anyone having the slightest moan needs to get a life.
