The new cheese ones are garbage, fall apart and taste no cheese at all. They must of made them next to a block of cheese and the smell wandered over. The real truth about carver patties is they are very stodgy but for some unknown reason remind me of being 7/8 near holly trinity church in the outdoor market with me mum. I think they are thicker than they use to be but it could be my ****ing memory or lack of it... That market was bloody brilliant, remember buying 20 pairs of jeans for 8 quid each, they was a tenner but got a deal. I set sail the next day to st Petersburg ( was Leningrad back then) on the black market I swooped them for. 50 boxes of Havana Cuban cigars, sold all of them to the cockney landlord of barham pub on bilton grange for £25 a box. I was 17 at the time and the ship was my first one I went to sea on, it was called the Baltic Valiant. I have some brilliant stories of Leningrad in the late 70s, coldest, greyist ****ing place I’ve ever been but oh my lord you could make a buck on the black market..Won’t tell you how I got sacked, **** spoiling a good yarn.. True story...

Back to the McCant thing, ok, he said, everything's agreed, wages, medical & fee, so for me that rules out Mayer, no fee. So IF the answers he gave to Burnsy was Williams, then he shouldn't have said that everything was agreed, regardless of whether the other team move the posts at the 11th hour, he could have been vague like usual, said, it's looking like things are done, but we just have to get it over the line before we confirm.
Anyway, enough of that now. I think we all have opinions on this & on GM.
I'm not going to be singing GM's name from the rooftops after 1 win, but if he gets us up, then I'll look forward to next season, although he will still have a lot to prove after last season.
I think GM will have to be top 6 after 10 games for me to believe he has any hope of getting us up, if we aren't top 6, then he should go. I had faith in Parkinson until we played Colchester & got battered, McCant, same result 5-1 v Brentford was when I lost faith in him, so he has a hell of a lot to prove to me & id say most fans!

I think technically, he was my Dad's uncle (I forget), I only knew him due to having to go round at Christmas and him giving me beer when I was about six.

Carver's patties don't have fish in them, they're potato and sage like normal patties, but they are bread-crumbed, not battered.

They did the same thing with fish in them, but they were fish cakes, not patties.

I thought they did two types? One battered and one breaded. Remember having the conversation as to which ones were vegan (as there’s often milk in batter).
Or maybe I’m going daft (not as daft as Kemps thinking there’s fish in them mind you...)

When I was doing my apprenticeship at Fenners I accidently managed to fail one unit at College by not completing sufficient homework tasks. I was bollocked from one side of Marfleet Lane to the other but then the outcome was an extra afternoon off to go and repeat the missing unit for a year. I always left work in enough time to get the bus into town and buy 2 breaded ice hockey pucks and chips from Bob Carvers then, armed with a copy of The Sun, go and eat them in the classroom in Queens Gardens. Afterwards i spent the afternoon taking the piss out of the first year apprentices who being a year younger than me were nobbut bains really and easy meat for the quick Ernie wit.

The work was piss easy and I was being paid for doing nowt due to having previously failed because of my own laziness.






A salient life lesson for us all, I feel.
