JamCal Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Because what's stopping a random from just putting on a Wanderers jersey to go to the roxy without having gone to the game...? I got in at 10:40 without paying so..... Link to comment
Malone Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Because what's stopping a random from just putting on a Wanderers jersey to go to the roxy without having gone to the game...? Buys wanderers jersey for $100 to avoid a $10 entry? Link to comment
JamCal Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Well what's to stop someone not in a wanderers jersey saying "Oh but I'm a wanderers fan you have to let me in."? Link to comment
Neverbloom Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 they can ask if you have a membership and force you to show a membership for free entry along with ID then problem is fixed Link to comment
CMontgomeryBurns Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I reiterate. This is supposed to be our "home pub". These questions shouldn't need to be asked. Link to comment
JamCal Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Probably not... But I've not had to pay a cent to go there every week. So clearly there's been a mistake. Link to comment

Themumf Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 That was probably me you saw yeah. Would have been around 11.00 - beer in the woolie, but to eat and then headed to the roxy. Won't be an issue in future, will just stick to the woolie. Paying to get into pubs is un-English anyway. Link to comment
Tranquilo Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 10 bucks is a bargain the match when we beat Adelaide after dinner me and few try to get in there and tryed to hit us up with $25 each! Link to comment
JosephWSW56 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) People paid? I've never paid, probably because I wear my jersey However, my mate who isn't even a football fan tagged along with me yesterday. He was wearing a singlet and he got in without paying either..?

Themumf Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 We all had jerseys on and still got stung for the 10 bucks. Link to comment

Skull Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Burns you pay an entry fee because Roxy is not a pub, it is a club. Jamcal it happens on a weekly basis, they seem to be selective of who they charge and who they don't. If you want a guaranteed free 'pub', stick to the woollie Link to comment
CMontgomeryBurns Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 And herein the Woolpack Drinking Crew forms. Link to comment
Jaggy Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I've tried the Roxy but prefer the Woolpack, to me the "Woolie" is the spiritual home. On Saturday when I was there it was like the early days, you get a beer with no line up, easily find a seat, free sausage sizzle and the fans still warm their vocals with the occasional song.

FairPlay Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 You shouldnt have to pay to get into a home pub. imo, both places have their +/-'s, but the woolie had a better feel to it last year than the roxy does this year. Link to comment
Hughesy Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Ive been back afterwards quite a few times and never been charged. Interestingly though, on Saturday the guy in front of me was charged but I was stamped and went straight through. Is it possibly because they can tell from the license scanner if you were there before the game? Link to comment
Themumf Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Not sure - I was there before the game (and they got 90 bucks of my hard earned to prove it) but still a cover charge. Woolpack Drinking Crew it is. Do we need a flag and s**t.... ? Link to comment
102megan Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 The Woolpack Drinking Crew is a heap of us Bay 55ers, plus various other awesome forumites & people! Everyone's welcome! Link to comment
Steve92 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Wanderers fans aren't meant to be getting charged no matter what time but these ****wits that run the club "levelz" that actually aren't part of the roxy are the people charging every week they do this I'll try and speak to a few people see what can be done Link to comment
Legionista Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Woolie + Roxy bar chicks would be ideal. Link to comment
Benched Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Guy's and girl's, there is good and bad for both venues....and both venue's are very different. Just choose what suit's you best. Link to comment
Balkanite Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Guy's and girl's, there is good and bad for both venues....and both venue's are very different. Just choose what suit's you best. Woolpack! Link to comment
CMontgomeryBurns Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Did the Roxy end up doing that "first 200 schooners of Toohey's New are free" thing? Link to comment
Hughesy Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Did the Roxy end up doing that "first 200 schooners of Toohey's New are free" thing?Yeah I think that's a bit of a myth, there's been a few gamedays where we've been one of the first people to rock up and we've been given jack **** Link to comment
