The White Horse 17:45 - Nov 9 with 1853 viewscatch74

I’m not in Suffolk enough but when I’ve been to Ipswich lately the White Horse seems to be in a very weird condition. Anyone know what’s going on there. Haven’t read the attached yet, so maybe some info there.

Poll: Who are the Numbskulls?

Sky news have done a bit about the white horse as well.. the Beatles lord nelson and obviously dickens, who I believe said it was a bit of a shiittee hole, all stayed there.

Also, and surely of more note, I DJ'd there 2 or 3 times in about 2002.

One night in particular the promoter had split the flyer (one side each) for the night with a grow shop in Ipswich, the EADT somehow confected an outrage that the White Horse was associating with drug growing, and had a front page story about it.

We were feeling pretty confident that we'd get a good crowd with that sort of coverage, but alas it was just the usual 30 or so who turned up, and the White Horse decided that they weren't too keen on hosting us anymore!

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
Poll: How confident are you of promotion now? Predicted final position...

For a heart-stopping moment I thought you were referring to the White Horse in Edwardstone.

Thank Goodness you're not

Maybe a local football team could support it. Perhaps one with a connection to the club crest. There may even be a musician with links to said club who might help?

"......Paul Mariner......John Wark...... Brian Tablet...errrrrrr Talbot"
Poll: In a hellish scenario, would you rather...

They just had a bit on look east about it. It’s been bought by a businessman with the idea to do it up . It’s looking v unloved at the moment: leaking roof, damp.

The main room was one of several venues the Town had for independent club nights. the Caribbean, The Attic, The Venue, even upstairs at the Hogs Head . Was a vibrant time in 90’s up to about 2010.

Had some cracking nights in there back in the day, such a shame someone hasn’t reopened it as a bar and pumped some money into the place.. it’s worked in places like the botanist, or arcade tavern.. maybe when we are back in the prem next season ..

Likewise, had some great nights in there and really enjoyed rubbing shoulders with many of the Town players post game on a Saturday. Seem to recall than Bam Bam was ‘quite lively’.

It's a favourite haunt when I am back East.... for a small pub in a quiet village it has excellent gigs and events going on.

When I was a kid, I lived next door.... moved away long before I got a taste for Abbot Ale and partying

You are all very disrespectful. It should always be the Great White Horse.
