Help with pubs please

[Taffywolf]

know a few Swansea fans that are attending Saturday and want a drink in the city centre. What's the best pubs for away fans and is there any they should keep away from. Thanks.

 

[WasStefan]

There ay none

 

[Shifnal Wolf]

Blue Brick by the station? easy walk to the ground also.

 

[Deleted member 4023]

Preferably one that the mixers don't go to

 

[MonkeySpanner]

I think the great western let's away fans in but I could be wrong. I drank in the hogsheads last time over for the Sunderland game, nice place but don't know there policy for away fans. Funnily enough whilst bopping around town for that game I didn't see any away fans anywhere.

 

[Dubwolf71]

Great Western is ok for away fans.

Was in McGhees after the Swansea game in our last year in the Premier and 2 Swansea fans came in. Now that was funny.

 

[blakenhall wolf]

Bluebrick is the only one really.
Was in there last season with around 50 singing Villa fans. (Ha singing villa fans doh sound right)

 

[Dawnwolf]

Bohemian is away friendly

 

[Dawnwolf]

If bluebrick is the one by the railway thats the one police tell awaybfans to go too

 

[Northamptonwolf]

Western allows away fans

Ive seen away fans in a lot of city centre pubs before. If they dont wear colours and dont act up they are usually fine, especially if they get there before door staff

 

[Dudleywolf]

If only a few, then Posada but I agree the Bohemian sounds a good choice

 

[Deleted member 3518]

Bluebrick best.

Preferably one that the mixers don't go to

Haven't you brought away fans the last two time?

 

[Deleted member 3518]

Bohemian is away friendly

Not recently, a definite NO to away fans unless accompanied by MolMixers!!

Tell em not to wear colours and learn the password in perfect dialect. Example of password dialect below.

 

[USA Wolf]

Tell 'em USA Wolf sent 'em, they'll only punch 'em once!

 

[Mr Wolf]

In Town you’ve only got the Blue Brick, Bohemians & the Grainstore (City Bar) that will generally allow away fans in with no hassle. The rest have a no away fan policy pretty much.

You could always go Chapel Ash way & go Royal Oak, Combemere & Clarendon where away fans should be ok.

 

[northbank1967]

tap or the old still we will give you a nice warm welcome

 

[wolvesultra]

Avoid; Tap, Old Still, Mgees, Billy Wright and round there

Ok if no colours and they're not idiots but might have trouble getting past bouncers: hogs, spoons, goose, royal London

Ok if no colours and not idiots; wheatsheaf, posada, lychgate, hooded ram, cuban

 

[Ned Stark]

I've seen away in the Cuban Exchange before with no trouble

 

[Michellis]

Not sure I’ve ever seen an away fan in The Posada. Usually wall to wall Wolves in there.

This.

I’m amazed away fans haven’t cottoned on to Chapel Ash yet. Only takes one set to post about it and the word's out there.

Great cobs and the ale is always kept well. Does get a tad rammed from 12:30 onwards.

 

[WasStefan]

Aside from blue brick i'd say Yates

Very warm.

Nor me Stefan.

Yates is a right crap place on match days.Had a right gew with them last wik when we popped in to meet the Aussie lad and lass.Ordered 2 bottles of bud and they poured em into a plastic glass.(if there such a thing) I said if I knew ya was gonna do that I wouldn't have asked for a bottle.

 

[el gringo]

A few years ago I was in the Cuban Exchange also, and there were Portsmouth
fans in there, no problems.

 

[wolvesultra]

Nah nor me but it's the type of place they would be ok in now

 

[1972 i began]

The Exchange ( Cuban ) The Octopus,and the tavern in the town used to be my favourite places in the 70s.

 

[1972 i began]

Nag nor me but it's the type of place they would be ok in I think

Not sure about that mate.Early doors it's quite quiet in there,and gets busy as people are walking down to the match who may pop in.It's bin rowdy wen we have played big games,Villa,Chelsea,Newcastle.with plenty of singing.Getting to enjoy a couple in there to be honest,its not bad to get served.

No sorry to say its rubbish getting served so I'd stay away if I was yow lot.

You think? I do only use it from time to time always thought there's been a bit of singing but looking around it's not what I'd call a risky crowd. Mind you think last time I was in was Boro first game.

 

[1972 i began]

To be honest there are probably loads of away fans in ar pubs and if they ay gor any colours on they should be all right.The problems start when there are loads in a pub and then start singing.I remember playing villa,we were in the George Wallace wen a bloke came over and sed,do you mind if I sit here with you all.He said I'm villa if you don't mind.He was a sound guy.

 

[RosehillWolf]

You would be absolutely fine in the Western, the George Wallis or the Blue Brick....nonsense saying there are no away friendly pubs

Well technically there aren't. So it's not nonesense at all

 

[Northamptonwolf]

Dont know why more fans dont embrace away fans having a social drink. Like any club 99.9% of fans are good humoured human beings just out for the day supporting their team.

Imagine if we couldnt get into any pubs in every city. There would be outcry!

Hogs have a home fans only policy. Think there's a sign on the door, they've also checked some of my old away shirts a few times
That said if you don't wear Colours or have an accent I see no reason why you won't get away with it.

 

[1972 i began]

I was in the goose about 5pm wen we played Brizzle rovers.An elderly couple came in,sat down and was looking at the menue.The lady took her coat off to reveal a Brizzle top.The doorman went over and told them to leave.WTF.They looked like they were in their late 70s.Why couldn't he have just sed.Can you cover your top up as its home fans only.I told them to go in yates.They seemed very upset,and I dow blame em.They day have stone island or ****ing doc ****ing Martin's on.
