Due to working late last night, knew wouldn't make the game, so me and mate went into the Lass to watch what we could....arrived bout 30mins into the match.
However, on the big screen they had the Liverpool game on....with barely anyone watching it. Asked barmaid if she would put City game on. Only to be told the manager had instructed her to leave Scousers on....'Can you put it on the small tv at the back then?' She obliged, only for five minutes later for the manager to come storming in and turning it back to Liverpool....said it meant 'the sound couldn't be on the main screen if split'.
Then told us he would put it on the small screen near the bar....but commentary would be in German....and that area is so small, and was no available room to see it properly....
Sorry, but we found this totally unacceptable in a pub IN Manchester, that Liverpool are given precedent...told him and he laughed and said he hated City......told him where to stick it and left.
Have been a regular in that pub since it got done up in early 80's....back when Joe Flynn was the landlord....my missus even worked there for him when we first set up home together....but will be boycotting it from now on....and reckon all Blues should too.....fcuk 'em.
