acquiescefc Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 7 hours ago, OWL1969 said: Nickname for Inter City Owl coaches. No ale, just pop, crisps and fruit gums. Might be a saying for the older uns, used to hear it regularly 25 years ago. "Are you going on train, booze bus, in car or wi fruit gum?" It was always a last resort to go with said "fruit gum" never heard that but then ive never been on an inter city owl (coach) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbloke no1 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 was used to describe the old inter city owl coachs ,you couldnt take any drink on board ,so you had a fruit gum as strongest alternative.they used to sell pop and crisp like on old club kids trips too.

Guest mkowl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Remember you couldn't take booze but hadn't ever heard the fruit gum comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaping Lannys Perm Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 As much as I'd love this (it'd certainly save me a good amount) I don't see the incentive for the club. We already sell out a good proportion of away games, so it's not like it would improve our away attendance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
