Tbh that was a partly jocular style post. However it is the case that people who come on and ask about away pubs etc- they could well be police- the surprise might be if none were.

The Batman Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Ok Ladies and Gentlemen I have done a quick dash around some of the pubs around New Street and asked the staff what their policy is and the ciders on offer. Head of Steam - No colours ideally but door staff will show discretion. As alluded to above, they do Stowford Press and they have a guest cider on cask in the back. Plus some fruit cider which i've never heard of. Flight Club - Darts pub. No Colours at all, no large groups. They do Orchard Thieves and Bulmers Trocodero - All shirts fine, no bother to them, cheap, but lacking in cider quality Sun on the Hill - Thatchers Gold and Haze galore, but his door staff are a tad more picky but as long as you've not had a skinful before hand, you should be ok Briar Rose - Girl i spoke to said they have no intention of serving anyone going to any football matches. Whether they have some Minority Report esque precogs in their basement i do not know, but how they plan on implementing that policy is beyond me. Ignore. not worth your hassle. The Wellington - No under 18's (strictly), but happy to have all fans in there. Hogans on draft and a few guest ciders on offer. It's an ale pub. the Square Peg - Plenty of ciders including Angry Orchard, all fans wearing colours welcome. The Shakespeare - first pub you see on exiting New Street. Forgot to go in to ask. Will ask them tomorrow but i imagine home fans only. If you want something near the ground then google is your friend, i aint traveling all the way out there in my lunch break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not done St Andrews before but been told to drink near station not the ground. Anyone know a good one in the centre? Where we all going?

TuxHarry Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 The Railway right outside the station decent boozer. Don’t go to Briar Rose 1) it’s shit and 2) you won’t get in. Cricketers Arms if you’re close to ground, otherwise around digbeth. bull ring tavern is a superb pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onehowie Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Remember a good following of City fans at The Old Crown, Digbeth two years ago. Away fans were welcome....does anyone know if this is still the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I’ve been to Birmingham 3 times and 3 times I’ve seen the visiting supporters who were at the Hawthorns that day. No trouble should I add! They will most likely be drinking in the same places.

Mr Roper Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Was thinking of THe Square Peg ( spoons ) Corporation Street ,only because I have been there before and seems a pretty good boozer and 30 mins walk from the ground or an Uber to save me old legs .
