[Archived] Rovers Get Together In Melbourne

[Blueboy Downunder]

well, blueboy will be there aswell.

i fly back to australia on wednesday.....so will be making my way to the charles dickens.....for those folks that have not been there before, be careful though cause you might miss it as it is situated in a basement.

uncle dave - it serves great meals and top quality ale and lager....just hope they serve tooheys new, otherwise sr is bringing a crate for me.

i will bring my rovers flag that i took to south africa and we can have a picture taken and send it in to rovers for it to be printed into a matchday programme.

btw....SR, where are you staying?

I could be a go-er. Charles Dickens is a good pub, and you can bet the Arsenals mugs will be there so we need to give 'em some noise.

Blueboy, I've sent you an email about accommodation, and no I wont be bringing a case of Tooheys New for you, there's enough pubs in Melbourne owned by Tooheys that will sell you one

[Chris_Roe]

blueboy...

dont suppose you can bring a tape of the burnley match(es) back with you ?? we could even get the charles dickens to show them as a warm up for the arse game...

[Paul]

There should be a tape of the first game circulating in Aus already. I think the higlights of the replay are enroute.

If it's the one you sent me it hasn't arrived yet.

Once it does I'll post on here.

Should be drank with care Just ask Dr Rich!

Or maybe the drinks that followed were to blame

[mhead]

Please purchase tickets for Sunday's big match and we will put dummies in the seats.

At least they won't leave early.

The package arrived today.Many thanks Paul.

Now,unless he's received a tape from elsewhere,Sydney Rovers is down for the tape next.

[Sydney Rovers]

Well hotels booked and now work is paying my airfares as I have to be in Melbourne for a meeting

Now, what time are we meeting up at the Charles Dickens?

[Blueboy Downunder]

lads

lets all remember that the game is an early kick-off....at 11.45pm i think. so we all need to be ther at least 3hrs before it starts so we can get a few good ones down our gulletts. i will probably be there just around 8pm....accommodation i have no idea where i am staying yet....probably at my mums in sunshine so she will come and get me i think...or rather hope.

i trust that we will all be wearing the blue and white? if not......shame on you

[SouthAussieRover]

To the tune of "Football's coming home".....

"Blueboy's coming home..."

Time to change him back to BlueBoyDownunder?

[Blueboy Downunder]

can't wait lads. and by the way south aussie...even if victor can't make your place....then i certainly will.

[Chris_Roe]

okay boys

8 pm it is, should be a great night.

rovers shirts are manadatory i think

[TROOPER]

What about a get together in Brisvegas for the Semi you Queenslanders?

[mattyc2422]

rovers shirts are manadatory i think

I've been wearing mine for the past 20+ odd hours. Pre-FA cup (during the day), during FA Cup, and post FA-Cup. And then I fell asleep in it.

I want to outnumber the Arse fans.

[Blueboy Downunder]

the rovers shirts are your entrance fees....so to speak!

be good to see some faces old and new. i am looking forward to meeting on saturday cause noi doubt we will have some great discussions about rovers.

[pg]

What sort of beer do they have on tap?? It's been so long since I've been there...

..in fact the last time was to watch West Ham vs Rovers. That was the game when Berkovic got Gallagher sent off.

BTW I had a house-warming on Sunday and the bath was full of Coopers Pale Ale, Sparkling Ale, Dark Ale, Mild Ale and Cooper's Heritage. I've still got 3/4 of slab of Dark Ale left if you want to come over after the game

[Chris_Roe]
