The Home Pub of LUSCS
by Herman Phua
Amidst the sea of red that engulfs the football scene in Singapore, there is now a welcome haven for Whites fans.
The Lot, Stock & Barrel Pub.
LUSCS has made the LS&B its spiritual home, a place where members and other fans with a passion for Leeds United can meet to escape the hordes of Red shirted supporters.
Match Meets, Committee meetings and get-togethers with members and overseas fans are now held at the LS&B.
The pub, which is along Seah Street, is conveniently located in the heart of Singapore, close to the famous Raffles Hotel (See location map). It serves a wide variety of brews, including Strongbow -- LUFC's official sponsor. Hungry customers can also order food into the pub from the menus of the many fine restaurants within the vicinity.
Even before LUSCS was officially established, a few Leeds fans, including many from the committee, had already been meeting informally at the LS&B whenever Leeds matches were telecast live to Singapore.
That, and the solid support shown by LS&B owner Jerry Lee helped to make the decision to christen LS&B as the club's home pub easier.
 To cater to the influx of Leeds fans, Jerry installed a large, flat-screen television in the pub. That, and all the other TV sets in the pub, will always be tuned in to the Leeds matches -- even when a red-shirted team is playing at the same time.
The LS&B also sponsors many of the prizes in the LUSCS lucky draws that are held during half-time. And to make sure that the Singapore Whites do not go hungry during Match Meets, Jerry regularly provides tasty snacks.
Indeed, the LS&B is even turning into a "must-visit" watering hole for Whites fans passing through Singapore.  After LUSCS issued an "Open Invitation" in LUFC.com to visiting fans for its Match Meets, the pub has seen more customers turning up in their Whites shirt.
So whether you're living in Singapore, or a Leeds fan passing through, pop on down to the LS&B and get a feel of the Whites Home Pub in Singapore.
You will not regret it.
