Only in Stoke could people be arguing, or even care, about a fight that may or may not have happened in a pub 17 years ago.

The American on Waterloo Rd, brings back memories, we'd always start off there before the march onto Vale Park

This is bugging me ive have never known of this happening, Gypos have tried and failed at the Knave pal but Meir and Abbey just coming Chell Heath for mither let alone smashing the pub up is beyond me, what was the girls name you dated? As far as the Meir lads go it was drugs related and at the time I assumed the same with regards to the Abbey lads but I can't say for sure. Maybe the local , main 'hard men' weren't in , maybe thats why they faced little resistance. It wasnt a random attack neither, those targted in the main seemed to know the attackers and seemed to be expecting the trouble, people werent picked out at random (with the exception of the gentle giant) so maybe there was more to what went on than meets the eye. And come on I'm not going name the bird on here am I, for all I know her or her brothers might post on here. I've left them and that chapter of my life well n truely in the past ;D Just to clear this up mate i was speaking to the landlord Roy Spilsbury last night who has been there since the Knave re-opened in 1992 and he assures me that this has never happened. He said that in the early days of having the pub a group of lads came in looking for trouble, within ten minutes the Chell Heath boys came up and sorted them right out and the lads who came looking for it bolted out.

Knave of Clubs Chell Heath I wouldn't say 'hard' more 'dirty' I dated a girl from Cheall heath years ago and was in there one night when some Meir lads came in and smashed the place up and the locals didnt hang around, they ran off with no reistance and the few that didnt run got slapped silly The following week was pretty much the same story but this time it was a group of Abbey Hulton lads that did the damage, it was one Saturday night after Stoke had played away (cant remember where) That never happened, nice story tho story teller

I think you'r the one embarrassed about the events, that's why you are denying them, either that or you weren't there and no one thought you were important enough to tell you

Knave of clubs, Jesus that was/is? a hole!! We used to "score" form a lad up there used to fucking hate that place!! The Goose in stanfields was on a par with the knave equally as intimidating..
