They've been on my avoid list since we beat Barnsley in the cup and the door man made me take my city top off

Same happened to me at Sinclairs before the Steaua game
Fuck em
Well annoying that. They seem to have a totally random door policy that varies from match to match. For the West Ham game a few days later they were letting blues in with colours no problem. It could be a tactic for European games though and it might not just be down to the bar because we went in there prior to the semi against Real last season. It was mainly Real fans bouncing round and having a good time in the pissing rain with us lot having a good craic and a sing-off with them. Suddenly, the police turned up and said they wanted all the City fans out of there even though there was no trouble whatsoever. We refused to budge then the next minute the pub stopped serving and all the City and Real fans drank up and fucked off. My mate asked a copper what it was all about and we got some tale about it being to do with the Slask Wroclaw fans attacking the Sevilla fans outside there several months earlier. What the fuck that has to do with City v Real Madrid and City v Steaua Bucharest is beyond me.

Its the inconsistency that does my head in, sometimes pubs let you in and sometimes they don't

It varies usually due to the Manager/Licensee and who they want in there.I was in there for the Real game too, when the singing started.

Some days we've allowed shirts,
Other days it's been simply used as an "excuse" as they don't want a gang of lads in there... So rather than saying: "I don't like the look of you"
It causes less aggro just to say no trainers or something.
Best bet is to go in single/pairs, avoid being in groups, no colours, hiding football tattoos and avoid wearing certain associated Hooly brands such as stone island, Fila, Adidas sambas etc...
Many of the lads who work on the doors in town are Blues, area managers I've met for a few of the biggest firms which run the doors are Blues...its nothing prejudicial against us, it's just some of the licensees/managers in bars in town are pretentious middle class cretins stuck up their own assess who would rather sell expensive cocktails to Chinese tourists than say a full round of Carling to working class mancunians
