in General Charlton
Has anyone been in there yet if so what are your views....Went in there last week, not totally impressed to be honest. A lot smaller and not enough seats. Bar area miniscule, staff cant get past each other...also beer going up in October.

    I liked it, remember there is going to be a basement floor which wasn't ready on Saturday.

    Seemed good.

    Agreed about lack of chairs and tables and there wasn't much room but it isn't finished yet.

    There was a football scratchcard going around which is always a good sign. Money was to pay for cafc memorabilia to go on the walls.

    Liked it, agreed smaller, but you got to look beyond matchday huge place empty.

    Beer going up still will be cheaper than the pubs and beer goes up all the time.

    New furniture will be coming as well the old stuff is just temp.

    I like it

    Well there is a surprise another post moaning about the club. No doubt you made some suggestions.?

    Personally i like it, its a place to have a beer with your mates before and after the game.

    Can we expect to see Tony Watt as a greeter as the Liberal Club soon then?

    It will be good when it's all complete. It's certainly better than it was when just the left side was open.

    It's early days and still needs to be completed. It was OK though and for me it's only a place to meet up with mates for a beer before the game.

    The CIU was established by a chap named Henry Solly, the only other Solly I've ever heard off.

    (I'm not good with facts or shit, I didn't have a clue what CIU was. So rather than risk another James/Jimmy saga, I did a quick google)

    I personally know how hard people worked make it a better club.Getting up hours before it opens to make sure that the club is in set up just for people to moan. Know doubt you have paid your annual membership? If you can still find a cheaper pint where prior or after a game when the prices do go up maybe you should have a booze there. As stated earlier did you say anything on Saturday or do you just moan on a forum?

    It must be great in your perfect world, would be great to how you would have laid the club out, made it better, and receive your input Chippycafc.

    I have been a member of three C&I clubs over the years (now two) and the Lib is the only one that I have been refused to. That was in the Premiership days (dream on) when match tickets were given priority. Which I believe was illegal.
