Listening to fans celebrating I spared a thought for those in Braintree Spoons or similar. Any gashes in the back of the head to report anyone? |  | | |  |

Not this time mate 
I went to a different pub this time. Better atmosphere and nicer people. Plus that German bombers song wasn't being sung every 30 seconds  |  |

Not too far from me, keep meaning to drop in at some point. It looks like they've got someone running it who's making an effort, which is nice. | | | |

Back in the early 70s I used to go there sometimes at lunchtime from school and play bar billiards. Glad to see it is still going strong. |  |

None of those commercial establishments are there any more, in fact the Angel is the only business still on Bradford Street as far as I can tell. | | | |

Small world. You would have delivered papers to our house - maysent house - Georgian townhouse opposite Gingers. Used to spend all my money on sweets and panini stickers in that place. Remember ginger well, always had a joke in him, died young of heart attack and his wife kept it on | |
