Shrinking attendances and another season with the prospect of relegation will hopefully show that he has gone too far this time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved this pub, often went there before the match in the early 90s. Cracking place. Slalom D and Old Peculier on tap. Some tremendous bands blues/rock/punk. Council wanted rid.... for some reason. Bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3960 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Broken doll was an old school rough as fuck pub and great with it. Just up from Svens there was a pub on the corner of Westgate Road called the Waterloo I think which did a roaring trade during a strike at S&N which lasted about six weeks in about 1983. I have no idea if its still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17629 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I was passing the site of the Barley Mow yssterday as it happens. Sad sight, something needs doing to it as it looks dangerous. My favourite ever pub. Who could forget old George Vickers and his harmonica. "Aye son." Broken doll i only ever went to to score drugs tbh. It was wierdly rough as fuck without actually feeling threatening. Btw, the Trent has had a bit of a makeover without ruining it, surprisingly.

Ha the Percy became the Bee's Knees...... that went well My favourite pub in town was The Haymarket Hotel. They served a cracking pint & the jukebox was really loud. Saturday afternoons in The Percy Arms playing pinball drinking cans of Red Stripe & double Jack & Coke chasers. Then trying to cross Percy Street to get to the Haymarket bus station, happy days 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didnt need many of them mind that's a later picture of the doll after it was taken over by s&n. matthew brown who sold slalom d (shudder!) and theakstons were subject to a hostile takeover by s&n in about '87ish. the original matthew brown sign of a broken doll is really difficult to find, although i have got it somewhere, ill try and find it an old tower pc in the loft. hat doffed to those who mentioned the barley mow, was another cracking pub back in the day, although the doll and the mayfair will always give me the fondest memories! anyway, just thought id mention the s&n takeover by virtue of an ambiguous link to the thread itself!
