You`re getting mixed up Dabz mate, Mick the beast was Mick Clarke, I knew Mick Tierney ( well his family anyway).

I realised I'd got that wrong after I posted it. Mick the Beast was a bouncer or something wasn't he? I remember him seeing a girl who lived in Newall green near the Eagle in the late seventies. I forget who Mick Tierney was and how I knew him. Wasn't he a bit "tasty"with his fists?Dirty Harry said:-dabz- said:I do. Mick Tierney I think his name was.

Not sure what he did mate, I just went to school with his kids, couldn`t believe in 5 years of school nobody decided to mention who their dad was.
Yeah that`ll be Mick Tierney Dabz, remember a few people telling me battered housewives used to pay him to leather the sh1t out of their husbands, that was from a few different sources aswell, can`t imagine they`d be doing it again, fearsome looking bloke.
Dirty Harry said:The Ash was probably the only pub I ever truly felt uncomfortable in round there, even living round the corner, marrying someone who grew up with the locals and her brothers who used to be part of said locals, just always on edge, stopped going in fullstop shortly after someone saying "watch your feet near them coats mate" me "why" and them pulling it back to reveal a couple of sawn-offs, time for me to leave.
The Ash and the Cornishman were both locals of mine throughout the nineties. The Ash was full of pretty dodgy blokes who generally kept their business away from the pub. They were pretty sound blokes in the main. It was only usually a few younger dickheads that ever made any trouble in there.
The Cornishman was always pretty chilled except late on Friday's and saturday's when Ozzy's was open. Went in Ozzy's a few times but not really my scene. They did do a free rock night on a Wednesday that I used to pop into though.

The Anson on the Anson Estate in Longsight. A guy lost his eye in there when an old bird took off her high heeled shoe and twatted him in the face with it, apparently because he declined to take her out the back for a knee trembler.
Two of the regulars staggered out to the Chinese chippy next door one night and beat the owner to death because he wasn't putting any more fish on.
The pub and estate was used for filming of the TV series Scully, supposedly because it looked rougher than the show's inner city Liverpool setting.
They were trying to film a scene on the front steps but it took 30 takes because my mate from school, Lanny, kept riding through the set, scattering cast and crew, on a stolen motorbike with a pair of scissors jammed in the ignition. He was 15 and his left leg was in a full-length plaster cast after crashing the bike he had 'borrowed' a few weeks before.
The Church in Longsight, on the A6 opposite McTucky's. Yardie central, drugs, blades and brasses.
The Huntindon on Northmoor Road. Not really rough but there was a court case and CCTV last year of a 'gangsta' pulling a gun and pointing it in the face of a big fella stood outside. He took the gun off him and battered fuck out of him with it.
The Clarence on Wilmslow Road, Rusholme, could be moody on non-match days if you didn't know the lads in there.
The Black Stock, Upper Brook Street, near the MRI. My auntie's fella got knifed to death in there after bumping into someone.

There was a John Willie Lees Cabaret Bar behind the Arndale. I went to a couple of alternative music nights there. I'm sad to hear it might have closed.
