Wetherspoons, where cheap beer and lager is nearly always close to being out of date, hence the cheap price! and taste!

If u want a cheap pint of anything then go to Wetherspoons, if u want a decent pint of anything that tastes as it should, but that’s much more expensive, then go elsewhere!

I would actually go further and say not only is the ale okay at Spoons but the food isn't bad either. Don't get me wrong it's not gourmet but sitting with mates, having a decent pint and steak isnt the worst evening.

And unlike in Brewdog on the Cowley Road you arent bothered by hipsters wearing Victorian riding capes.

Birra morreti or similar.

Des is 100% a Moretti drinker. He could do ads for it.

Pale, Zesty, Hoppy - that's our new front three for next year isn't it?

I hear Hoppy is injury prone, which makes his signing a

I hope (with tomorrows game(s) in mind ) this local pale ale would be his tipple of choice ...

Little Ox do some great beers. Get on down to their brewery in Freeland , you won't regret it

And yes, they need a microbrewery at the new ground

I do like a Victorian Riding Cape mind! Punk and Wingman IPA are decent and Black Heart is a good stout.

That could actually be Browne's or Goodwin's nickname

Poor Des. There is a slight look of hostage video in the latest OUFC video. #PrayforDes

I'm quite snobby but some Weatherspoons are OK - they seem to vary quite a lot. Certainly very cheap and convenient.

Yes either a microbrewery, or sourcing beers from different local breweries.
I actually prefer the second option to try and advertise and help different local breweries.

Fosters, John Smiths, Strongbow, that should cover everyone.

Getting back to the point (kind of), I recently realised how pointless all of this when it became apparent that certain people will want Des out no matter what he does.
If Arsenal fans were slagging off Wenger, Henry and Pires during their invincible season, what hope has anybody got?

Also, it makes me wonder how cyclical forums are. I imagine there are people on here gibbering on about the exact themes and subjects as they were 20 years ago. 20 goal a season striker, proper #9, fancy football vs robust stuff etc.
