I had a bit of a good-natured disagreement / Twitter row with Hackbridge Harry this afternoon about the Roy Sisley trifle story. He said that the version he heard had the catering at Sandy Lane making a trifle on the premises. I was racking my brain trying to remember 1) Where at Sandy Lane there was a kitchen and 2) Who among the staff at Sandy Lane had the culinary skill to make a trifle. The hashtag #triflegate is already taking over the internet. Conspiracy theorists are calling it the new 9/11. But before outsiders take over I thought I'd ask the Bog End Forum.
What exactly is the truth behind the Roy Sisley trifle story?

My memory, and the fact that I didn't go to a game between us leaving Sandy Lane and last season, are making things, ahem, a......"trifle" confusing.

My big memory towards the end was bushes and flowers growing out of the terraces. Also seem to remember it being used for filiming a couple of times after it shut down but before it was turned into houses. (Danny Baker doing one of his football of the 70's shows if memory serves me.)
But what about #triflegate? Hearing so many different versions that it's confusing me. And the truth is out there.....somewhere.

I heard a story that he ate so much trifle one time at Sandy Lane that he puked up A story corroborated by Dave Irons, so it must be true.
I've just ordered a couple of trifle related t-shirts off the internet, my favourite one says ' Real Men Eat Trifle ' I want to get printed on the back ' So Does Roy Sisley '...............Sorry Roy.

I'd buy that t-shirt!
And that's the version I heard too. I think we're getting to the bottom of #triflegate

I've heard a very strong rumour that it was the occasion of Mr Sisley's birthday and one of the ladies who helped run the bar at Sandy Lane (Carol?) made the said birthday boy a trifle for his birthday and presented to him at the club (whether it was made on the premises or whether it was made and brought in I'm afraid my sources cannot confirm).
Now the story goes that everyone at the club was waiting for our tannoy announcer to share out the spoils, especially some of the young kids that were around that afternoon. Boy oh no! Mr Sisley sat there and ate the entire bowl of trifle himself - the remains of which are said to have been found later in various locations around the Sandy Lane premises mixed in with assorted liquids and sundry unidentifiable stomach contents

To be fair, this was after weeks of listening to slander from you about some Millwall fans being "rough" and "unsociable". ):
