In the olden days, when everything was in sepia (look it up) and you could go out of a night, drink ten pints, hire the services of a world weary prostitute for a hour, buy a big bag of chips & a rissole, get the tram home and still have change from a five bob note, retired footballers opened pubs.
What pubs would Newcastle players run once their glory days are over.............?
Joey Barton would be landlord of 'The reformed *******'. I can imagine going in there as a non regular and seeing Barton (with tash) staring malevolently and unblinkingly at the stranger while wiping out a pint pot with a dirty tea towel..
Faustino Asprilla would be a barman in a shack in the jungle called 'Mad Mungo's crazy Bongo shack' where hombres drink evil home brew from whole coconuts thru straws...
Carol, she'd run a seedy winebar called the 'Thirty pieces of Silver', where the management actively encourgae the clientelle to betray their loved ones...
Colo would have a country pub on a canal called 'The coiffured lock' (geddit? lock - locks - hair - canal locks)....never mind.....
Jonas would be the hotel barman off Benidorm..
Chrissy H would run 'The betrayed badger'
Chris Waddle would own 'The Mullett'..
Don't know what pub Chiek would own, but it wouldn't be on 'the worlds hardest pubs' on Sky, because Chiek wouldn't want to associate himself with such pussies....
The pub co-owned by John Barnes and Barry Venison, 'The Jacket', would have the worst decor known to man...
Leon Best's pub wouldn't fill you full of confidence when you first saw it, but after a couple of pints you'd be pleasantly surprised...
Haris Vucik's pub would be called 'The FFS, what do I need to do?!' - it would be a fantastic pub, but hidden away where no-one could find it...
and now, as is usually the case when I post these pointless articles, it's over to you......
