I also contacted the landlord of the pub in question to ease my conscience.
He kept saying how pleased he was after making a considerable profit.
I pressed him for several hours and he eventually admitted that someone had spilt some bread crumbs on the pool table.
Also, one of our 'lads', (probably one of these naughty forty types), did a fart that was so bad that Stacey, the 19 year old barmaid who works Saturdays, was sick in her mouth and reduced to tears.
I immediately instructed a telegraphic transfer of my entire life savings(£63) to the pub landlords bank account.
Disgusted at all of you.
Dickheads indeed

I was in there & by the bar in the poolroom.
Lets get the facts right...
The bar DID NOT get smashed up!
It did get out of hand a bit but it was 1 pissed up young dickhead who went too far. The young uns took the trophies down and were signing the Autoglass trophy song, the bar staff found it funny, they were even recording it on their phones! One lad then decided to smash a glass on the pool table with the base of the trophy he was holding then stamp on it. I saw a couple of his mates try to stop him. A couple of us older ones then had a word & told them to pack it in, they did and they went outside then. We had a word with the barstaff & after their initial anger (rightly so) they were fine with it all.
It was no worse than you see at half time in the concourses all over the country. But bet half on here whinging never say anything.
Get a grip

I was also at the Palfreys Lodge and while I laughed about the pool table (it's a pool table, it probably gets trashed twice a year), I found the trophy thing to be a bit disrespectful, although as confirmed by others on this forum as far as I could see the trophies weren't damaged at all. Just left a bad taste in my mouth, but that's just me. There was a single glass smashed on the pool table and then the bar staff came and covered the table with a blanket, aided no less, by Stoke fans.
Can I also point out, that while we love to comment and belittle our own 'disgraceful' fans, I'm yet to see a word on the fucking morons from Doncaster who threw bottles and eggs at us as we left the pub. I've not been through this thread so apologies if anyone has, but you know, just saying like.

Bloody hell Malcolm, don't go and spoil stories with facts, you have just killed the knicker wetters scfc supporters club thread dead in the water Oh well, we will probably only have to wait 24 hours before another sensational load of dog shit raises its head in true Oatcake fashion. I must admit that when I first read it, my heart sank and it didn't occur to me that it wasn't basically true because it was so clear and specific, and I'm normally pretty street wise about finding out the facts before forming a view. Not impressed with the OP The OP isn't lying, there were people drunk (it's a football match) and a few bits of bread were thrown around and the pool table was probably ruined. But fuck me, the amount they took behind the bar. They must have been laughing.

Clearly the OP exaggerated as what he said appears to have happened just not to the extent he said.
He's been a bit of an idiot and has now left the forum. But,what kind of person takes a trophy base and smashes a glass with it on the pool table ? That's not high spirits that's wanton vandalism.That person deserves to be called a dickhead

The lad had lost it mayf, totally off his trolley, he tried bardge past me with it in his hand but I just stood there. TBF his mates got to grips with him straight away and got him out. Dickhead yes....10 page thread no. I've seen a lot lot worse. Playing rugby away it was a ritual to steal things from pubs. The replica gun that disappeared on a infamous Stoke away day once or the pub in Bournemouth early 90's that ended up with red n white stripped walls after every other strip of wallpaper was torn off is what you call serious stuff.
The pub were naive, 4/5 coaches knowingly coming, you would have had the pool table covered or moved & the trophies put away?

To be fair if the OP hadn't have started this thread I doubt it would have even come up.No one else would have thought it warranted a thread. At the end of the day if you're letting away football fans into your pub you're probably expecting a bit of damage,it goes with the territory does it not

It's taken 10 pages to get the story of Coach load Smashed up the place, trophies all destroyed down to 1 lad been a dickhead and smashed a glass with the base of a trophy. If had started out as that story it probably wouldn't have got past 1 page.

It goes to show how far a simple exaggeration goes though doesn't it? The OP should have been moderating the thread and explaining himself, just so it didn't get so out of hand that people are actually taking time out of their lives to help out and inform others - Re. Malcolm
I found the whole thing kinda funny from an outside perspective, but I can see why others are pissed off

fact of it was it wasn't just one lad and it wasn't just one glass to be fair. Pool table was soaked in ale and more than one trophy was broken. The young lads were ok just singing and throwing bread ? having a laugh until they stacked the pint glasses on the table tried to hit them with the cue ball and failed. A couple of lads then smashed the glasses with the base of the trophy and cues. Glass flew which didn't go down to well with a couple of older lads playing cards. Then he threw it on the floor and stamped on it until he broke it. Dickhead yes to be honest but not as bad as some have made out. I'm sure the Landlord made a killing and wasn't that bothered to be honest. This pub was split between lounge and bar that's why most in there didn't even know anything had happened It was ok in the lounge. Don't be too hard on the OP coz they pissed quite a few people off who saw it but not the end of the world.

Its a shame the OP has closed his account, I don't like to see that, but it didn't have to get so far out of hand either. Too bad that other posters like Britvic were not on earlier, maybe the OP would still be around. He was upset obviously, hence the thread. Shame it went to such a titanic shit-storm though!

My feelings towards the incident really depend on the density of the bread in question, bread in itself as a descriptive term is far too vague.

When I rang the pub, I didn't ask what had happened, I just asked whether they had any complaints at all against Stoke fans, to which the answer was a very clear "no". They mentioned singing and said they had no problem with that but didn't mention anything else. Whether that was because they genuinely weren't bothered about the things which did happen, or whether it was because business had been brisk and they just didn't want to make any kind of issue about the damage which did occur, I don't know. They may have been unclear and therefore very cautious about exactly who I was, even though I explained my FSF role. Having chided myself for initially taking the first post at face value, I now feel guilty for having assumed after my conversation with the pub that singing was the only thing which happened and that the OP had made all the rest up. I've been involved in so many of these kinds of things (although usually between the versions given by stewards and fans rather than different fans) that I really should by now have learnt that so often the truth lies somewhere in the middle Apologies all round.

What a strange place for so much weird shit to happen! Its like it's cursed or something!

The OP alleged that Stoke fans "smashed the bar up, pool table fucked and all the trophies that have been there for years smashed..." The initial reaction was in direct response to this level of detail. If it didn't happen then there's nothing for the bread-chuckers to get all offended about other than the OP's exaggeration... I was in the pub and bollocked a few kids, they were lining glasses up on pool table, and whacking balls at them.pool table was fuked, covered in bread glass and booze.they were also stamping on trophies that have probably been in the pub for years..bunch of little pricks

No wonder theyre still arguing about what happened in Dealey Plaza 50 years ago, theres loads of different theories about this and it only happened last week.
we should have a song about this and sing it at matchdays. It could go viral. It could be on "youtube".
Martin "Kebab house closes in sneyd green shocker" Tideswell should get involved. As should Eric "busker" Newton
Im writing an opera about it in 4 parts. "You cant make an Omlette without breaking glass"
