The Chesterfield squad were very heavy handed. From 6 allnighters they caught one person with a couple of grams of speed, they would have had more success down the Adam and Eve the dozy pillocks At the end of the day the police didn't want the nighters there, they even objected to an application for a licence for one of the local colliery brass bands :graywanker: They caused the management , who were well up for the nighters to be held there some right grief In the end it wasn't worth the hassle.
Apparently the management was asked a couple of years ago about the prospect of nighters there again and they seemed keen at the time, nothing came of it.
