Anyone Remember The Bluebirds Club ?

Re: Anyone Remember The Bluebirds Club ?

Talking of licensed premises near the ground, what’s the sketch with that Sandmartin place now? Went to go in for a pint a few seasons back but was told by a doorman that there was no horizontal drinking (apparently that’s bouncer speak for ‘you can’t stand up and drink, you have to sit down and eat’.) You’d have thought that on a match day there’d be a fortune to be made if it was packed out with fans. It must be the only pub practically in grounds of any club that doesn’t encourage home fans.....or do they now? I haven’t got a clue......Surely ‘The Bluebird’ would’ve been a more appropriate name also or are the brewery involved determined to distance themselves from the club albeit not in closeness?

I'm sure you, or maybe someone else, posted almost exactly the same thing soon after it opened.
