Hi Stumblemick

Yes, we all have to learn from the bottom with anything new. You have the enthusiasim that is evident by clearning out rubbish and broken items. Its only with trial and error that we suceed. As you say you now have new clientele who appreciate what you are doing and who knows maybe those complaining will come back to see your new developments. I wish you all the best for the future in Stumble Inn and if I get over in the next couple of weeks will look the pub up.

You must see by the replies already, people want you to succeed. There was a reply from a publican of twenty years who is willing to help you please take his advise. I had pubs in London 20 years ago and do not think my information would be relevant today. Just read, digest the threads on this forum and take it all as well meaning which I personally think it is and you will be on the road to attracting more customers in the coming season.

A number of questions for the new owner before he goes bust.



How did one of your female regulars recieve injuries at the stumble worse than when she over turned her car ?



Has you bar manager got the authority to ban people ( even when they are not on the premises ?)



Why are so many regulars staying away ?



Why were you shut at 10 pm on sunday 13th of july ?



Why did you allow one of your regulars to drive when according to your bar manager " she was totally off her head" yes you were there.



What qualifications does your " bar manager" have to manage your bar ?



No personality ?



No carisma ?



No tact ?



No get up and go ?



Just what is he good at other than insulting customers ??



Oh yes he did say to some elderly customers " why don't you just fcuk off you old gits "



And last but not least when is the ALBINO DEAD LEG GOING .



He is a disgrase no shirt on his underpants hanging out a pathetic specimin of human form.



People do have supported you , given you help , advise , assistance, phisial support ............. yet you choose to alienate them.



Do you want to go bust ?



Do you want to close ?



Wise up mick you are paying over the ods for food, you are paying the albino over the odds in wages, you are paying over the odds for entertainment.



Nice people get taken for a ride and stuffed and at this moment it looks like you are on the EXPRESS TRAIN

Having read this and other threads relating to Stumble, I am shocked at how nasty & spiteful people are. To put such disparaging comments about people on here and to potentially damage someones business, over a matter which few people know the truth about, is disgraceful. This has gone beyond a discussion to a vendetta and to make personal and slanderous remarks about others on here is unacceptable. You would not like this if it was YOU being discussed like this on here (especially by people who do not have facts, just gossip). The people who are taking part in this should be ashamed of themselves, especially as so many of them pretend to be 'friends' of Mick. This is meant to be a forum, where all people can participate and discuss things reasonably. To use it for this type of thing is vindictive and I feel that the moderator should step in. As a customer of the Stumble I will continue to support the pub, but as for this forum, I think it's time something was done. It should not be a method or vehicle for people to publicly abuse others, especially when they are making comments that are not correct, nor truthful.

lapta local,



I second that.



Post 13 is just wrong, in my view if you have such strong feelings speak to the man directly not post such things for all to see.

Lapta Local

I Third that. Those people making nasty remarks, should be sent to a Looney house, because the information they are given to many others on this forum are a pack of Lies. This is what' s wrong with our English Countyman, instead of praising a place they all Lie and Downgrade them. Put them to hell i say, May God get rid of them for telling Lies.

I be down to the Stumble inn soon and be putting money in your till mate, got a group of 10 coming over from the U.K., so Stumble be prepared for a coach party.

hi laptalocal , to be fair there has only been one post by one person making less than favourable remarks , and i agree this is not the place to conduct such damning statements, all the rest are by people wishing mick well and giving him support

oh dear what ıs happenıng on this forum of late, especially relating to comments on this thread. i agree with lapta local, r croton and united forever. there is ındeed more than one person on this forum willing to stir up a hornets nest with little regard to those they are being darn right disrespectful to. as has been said, if it were you people being abused you would be going bananas so please , lets drop the attacks and start using this site for proper adult dıscussıopn, comments and advice. the said incident last week was indeed witnessed by very few, however it is nothing to do with anyone other than those dırectly involved, it has no place being discussed here and it is just plain wrong to speculate and spread lies. both owner and manager are friends and the latter is rightly fuming after being branded an albino! the decision of who the owner employs is solely his. i dare say that no one short of al murray would be acceptable to some but as far as i know he s still on tv so lets accept the staff there or dont drink there, simple as that. i will be continuing to support the owner as i would hope many others will, its early days but with a clientele of genuine people and not back stabbers this place will be a good watering hole once more. to those who may wish to continue acting like kids in a playground - note to self, get a life.

On behalf of both sides:



We would ask that this subject matter be dropped from the Forum.

While various people are obviously trying to stir up bad feelings of all concerned, the people actually involved are working on a solution.

Please leave it at that and show some respect for BOTH parties's desire to resolve this matter without everybodies comments.

That would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
