Dutchman Pub

[ISpeds00]

Cordonded off by police with tape
Reports of a stabbing
Any locals clued up?

[ClaretAndJew]

Reports of someone speaking coherently.

I went past about 4 o clock and the front was sealed off with 2 police cars/4 coppers talking to people out front.

But the beer garden was still busy and sidedoor open, so I presumed nothing serious. Certainly the people in the pub didn't seem like much was going on.

Dreadful pub, apparently someone's been chinned and fallen badly. Hope they are ok

Clued up?...in Padiham?

Glued up more likely.

[GetIntoEm]

Only place in padiham where the beer garden is packed when the pubs not even open

Not really.

I'd always protect my family. A scumbag pub fight is completely different

[GetIntoEm]

Not really, but if it meant defending my family against an oxygen thief I'd rate my chances

[TheFamilyCat]

But what if he was punched and seriously injured by someone defending their family?

Then fair play. You play with feathers, you'll get your arse tickled

[TheFamilyCat]

So do you hope they're OK or not?

[GetIntoEm]

So do you hope they're OK or not?

Yes, long term. Short term, reep what you sow

[TheFamilyCat]

But they might not have "reaped" anything.

Might have reaped a black eye and a sore head

and a swollen neck

[GetIntoEm]

and a swollen neck

It was like that to begin with

[Goalkeeper]

This has turned into a surreal thread, but strangely funny.

[Hapag Lloyd]

I reckon GetIntoEm couldn’t punch himself out of a wet paper bag.

Where are you finding a circa 6ft paper bag?
Why is it wet?
Why does he need to punch his way out of it?
Is the top tied or could he not just tip the bag and crawl out the top?

I think it's time for a "good news from Padiham" Thread.

I had a very pleasant ride down to Gawthorpe Hall yesterday that was very busy with families taking in the sunshine.

Our training ground seemed to be very busy with young teams around 3.30pm. Was there another tournament on?

That will be the Pre-Academy age groups (U7 & U8s) playing games , they normally play late afternoon.

This reminds me of a lad I went through Basic Army training with.

His name was Steve Tuckett. He was a former professional boxer and his claim to fame was being on the end of the quickest knockout in a British ring at the time.
They had him on Big Breakfast the week later saying he couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag and had him literally fighting out of a giant paper bag

I'm not sure what was happening down there yesterday, but the annual tournament kicks off on May 30th. Always a good event, worth a look down.
