'Blue'/'Red' Pubs

[citytilllidie]

On sick swan day, myself and four muckers were skipping back into town along the canal toepath.
Decided we'd dive into the first boozer we came across, which was The Deansgate, which was
packed.
Anyway, just after being served and looking for somewhere to sit, who do we spot but our Raggy mates from our local, who we'd grown up with. The faces on them twats when they saw us. Nowhere to run or hide, well we didn't hold back, took the piss big style, I even rushed to the bar to get them a round as I didn't want them sloping off. Ha Ha, one of our greatest days.

Cheers lads - good to know that there are some United fans who can behave like sane human beings when faced with a City fan!

In hindsight, I'm glad I didn't stick his head in the urinals like he deserved as it would have ruined the night out - but I am hoping I bump into him in the street one day when he isn't tanked up with whiskey and with his mates...see how hard he is then!

I just hope that City fans, when the shoe is on the other foot, all behave like adults and can draw the line at banter!

Regarding pubs in town always thought many pubs have rag memorabilia on the walls etc, but can't think of any city pubs doing the same, not even crown and anchor.

Mother Macs used to have pictures up. The Hare and Hounds used to have both City and Rags up.

You don't pollute a good whisky with anything but possibly a bit of ice. Mind you it's arguable whether JD fits that description. ;-)

Could have been Knob Creek.

A couple used to be 50/50 picture on the walls but since we moved from maine rd ones like the circus and abercrombe seem to be just rag pictures nowadays, grey horse still has a mix.

A couple of years back the Grey Horse was owned by a blue called Vinnie. He upped sticks and moved to the continent.

Had the unfortunate displeasure of attending the Bishops Blaze for a leaving do on a Friday night. I was late but I entered the pub, I heard a work colleague shout at the top of his voice “Ya late ya big blue bastard” in a jokey manner.

As you can imagine a lot turned around but I just carried on walking up to the bar and asked him to get one in.

Didn’t encounter any problems thank god but I must admit I didn’t feel at all at ease!
