Is it an ew sports bar though of just walkabout being renamed - I like the bit where htey say that they have swindon fan;s in on a Sat night causing trouble, I think that may have nothing to do with football just the clientelle they attract
How do they know they're Swindon fans? They can't have a Swindon shirt on, because they're banned! Pathetic. Anyone who lowers themselves to go in there and watch the final is a moron. Actually that's previous obvious if they're going to watch it in a pub in Swindon instead of going to Wembley! |

One thing about what they said doesn't make any sense is that they have said that they had a fight outside last july, but that is impossible as they only opened last friday, and then they refused to let us in as it was their VIP opening. I also tried to watch the game in there on Monday but was told they were not showing it, i asked the bar staff if they were still part of walkabout and was told no. Walkabout as a company don't show local team football in their pubs. Rudy's was the only pub we could find that was showing the game.

I think the thing about the trouble is fair - but only if opposition are in town.
I can't imagine a load of Charlton fans suddenly turning up and storming the place.

I have been in Walkabout as it was for Champions League finals and there were plenty of Chelsea & Man U fans to fight each other or even amongst themselves yet they were allowed in wearing their plastic shirts. There's something wrong when you can't sit in a pub in your home town wearing the shirt of your local team

Don't see what the problem is, there are plenty of other places to go to.

Yes, that's the point: Maybe anyone not able to get to the game might want to watch it in a pub where they're actually welcome. rather than this place which is just trying to cash in on the final but ordinarily wouldn't show Town games or (apparently) let Town fans in |

Quite right. Aside from anything else, I think you have to assume that anyone who thinks that Swindon fans are more 'violent' than most must be fairly new to football...and probably shouldn't be running a sports bar. |
