At the risk of taking the thread off at a complete tangent, I can confirm that I too have had a really good curry in the Bull.
We'll start a curry thread then. You know where The Cellar is.

But before you go, were there any empty seats? Because if there were, then the Bull should forget about curry as it's obviously not that popular.

Well I popped into my local Tesco at 2200 last night and there were only about 10 other people in there, I have off course done the right thing and emailed them highlighting the fact and suggested they should close that branch down.
There's clearly no demand for shopping at 10pm on a Wednesday.

I hope you used red pen.

Yep, I attached a picture of the other customers that were in the store and drew red circles round their heads.

To avoid descending to the depths of some others though, you should concede the possibility that some regular 22:00 Wednesday shoppers couldn't make it, while others may have been in the car park or (provided the branch had them) toilets.
 
As many of you will know,that over the years my loyalty for the MEN has never wavered and I have "enjoyed" some fine banter on this forum,with my fellow Blue Mooners.
Having read the MEN for some 35+ years,it was our only link between the Club and Supporters and what was happening with regard to transfers,the usual bi-yearly take overs and Swales Out-Lee In Bandwagon.Certainly stuck out here in Mid Cheshire,it was our saviour,along with anything that we have caught from those Saturday afternoons with Picadilly Sport being the other source.
Over the past few years I have been the most staunchest fan of SB and argued his corner,ref his fine coverage of the Blues,even though I knew of his old allegiance towards our bitter rivals.That will continue,as I firmly believe that Stuart has now changed certain views on how Blues now perceive him.
However,in light of this stupid article and the response from all Blue Mooners,including myself,my head tells me to carry on purchasing my MEN,but with a heavy heart it could well be the end of seeing it ever again in the Oakes household.
All the great work that SB has done over the past few years,on this forum,has now disintegrated into oblivion.Stuart,not your fault mate,but some cretin within your organisation thought a nice cheap shot at City would help your newspaper to gain a response from the Blues,but never,ever in the way your colleagues could imagine.
Whether an agenda is there,I am not certain,mainly due that I do see the MEN every night and read all articles,either criticising or giving some positives.Indeed even my Rag mates hate the MCEN,as likewise they have the same slant on feelings exactly as we do.
I come to the conclusion that my support towards the MEN is now at a all time low,something I have never felt before.But at the end of the day my feeling for my Club runs stronger than the support for a supposed "local newspaper".
Amen.

Now there's a reaction.

Have they said if they will remove the article. ?

By all accounts it still appears to be going strong.
