点评:Visited here as an away football fan before the Portsmouth game as the pub was being advertised as the away dedicated pub.
On arrival all was good and you were allowed in with colours on. Pub looked decent with Barnsley football items all over the place which is great. Other fans all seemed friendly, but our visit was spoilt by what appeared to be the doorman.
On arrival a local man was on the door, with no SIA door badge shown which is illegal, but he was coming across as the doorman. He seemed ok at first, but was then going round telling people to move their jackets from seats.
Due to football colours being allowed, I got my flag out which is a size of an average tablecloth and it normally goes on the table in pubs we visit. Normally it promotes great conversation between fans as it’s got our European games on from 2008.
However, despite a nice bar lady seeing me putting it out and not objecting, as soon as I put it on the table, the ‘doorman’ quickly came across, started tugging at the corner of it whilst saying, ‘Put that away now! It will upset the locals and if you don’t like it, you can leave!’
Well, if I hadn’t had just bought a round we would’ve left as the way he spoke to us was a disgrace. Plus if we hadn’t have been sensible, mature people then it could’ve caused an issue as most people would’ve reacted to the way he spoke to us.
Why not simply come across and politely say, ‘Excuse me mate, do you mind putting that away as it may cause issues?’ I’d have been happy with that and from reading other reviews there seems to be an issue with a member of staff there, so probably him going power crazy?
I’ve tried to ring the Licensee to advise, but every time I ring, the person answering says they can’t hear me.
It was a shame as it seemed like a decent local pub and the other staff were lovely, but we won’t be returning and I’ll be advising others not to visit.
翻译:在朴茨茅斯比赛之前作为客场足球迷来这里参观,因为该酒吧被宣传为客场专用酒吧。
抵达时一切都很好,你可以穿着颜色进入。酒吧看起来不错,到处都是巴恩斯利足球用品,这很棒。其他球迷似乎都很友好,但我们的访问被似乎是门卫的人破坏了。
到达时,一名当地男子站在门上,没有出示 SIA 门牌,这是违法的,但他是门卫。起初他看起来还不错,但后来四处走动告诉人们把夹克从座位上移开。
由于允许使用足球颜色,我拿出了我的旗帜,它有一块普通桌布那么大,它通常放在我们去的酒吧的桌子上。通常它会促进球迷之间的良好对话,因为我们从 2008 年开始举办欧洲比赛。
然而,尽管一位漂亮的酒吧女士看到我把它拿出来并没有反对,但当我把它放在桌子上时,“门童”很快就走了过来,开始用力拉着它的一角说,‘现在把它收起来吧!这会让当地人不高兴,如果你不喜欢,你可以离开!”
好吧,如果我没有刚买了一轮,我们就会离开,因为他对我们说话的方式是一种耻辱。另外,如果我们不是明智、成熟的人,那么它可能会引起问题,因为大多数人会对他对我们说话的方式做出反应。
为什么不简单地走过来礼貌地说,“对不起,伙计,你介意把它收起来吗,因为它可能会引起问题?”我对此很满意,而且从阅读其他评论来看,其中一名成员似乎有问题那里的工作人员,所以他可能会发疯吗?
我试着打电话给被许可人建议,但每次我打电话时,接电话的人都说他们听不到我的声音。
很遗憾,因为它看起来像是一家体面的当地酒吧,其他工作人员也很可爱,但我们不会回来,我会建议其他人不要去。
