Yep, and while they are always rightly described as a minority, it's a much bigger minority than anyone ever seems to want to admit.

They opened one in Liverpool a few weeks ago and almost immediately alienated half of their potential customer base by holding a Liverpool FC-themed event for the derby last week.

Yep, they came down at the same time as us and PNE went up.
