Queens Head - Named and Shamed

[Big G]

Despite me and 5 mates being in the Queens Head to watch the match they still insisted on showing the Liverpool game despite our reasoned arguement that there was only one person there to watch that game and Brighton was the local side. Had to leave and watch the match in another pub.......named and shamed.......The Queens Head, Queens Road, Brighton.
Disgrace!!!!!

the alibi is NOT on the named and shamed list, after giving the PROPER football fans the prime viewing position and BIG SCREEN while all the premier league SHITMUNCHERS were huddled around a measly WIDESCREEN

Got in there at 7 and barmaid said was showing it, then at 7:40 started questioning the supervisor as to why it was'nt on, he fobbed us off with they had advertised liverpool game and did'nt know Brighton were playing but still had to show Liverpool game......could'nt get the arguement of more people in pub wanting to watch Brighton and being the local side.

Our anger was soon dispelled by the good people at the Railway Belle, a true Brighton pub.

And one day...the windows at the Queens Head will get the loving care they deserve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Hilly Fields Harborne Birmingham gets a good mention (scruffy pub but hey) for allowing 1 Brighton fan rule the roost over the locals who wanted the Liverpool game but I got there first!

Let them watch the Looserpool game at half time and just after I said you can have the Liverpool game on now as I flew out the door at the final whistle.

We really must get a list of pubs around the country where Albion fans can congregate for live games etc in peace.

Good idea, then all our insurance premiums can go up a bit more due to mindless vandalism

A few letters to The Queens Head I think. With Falmer and the hopeful rise of this club the whole Sussex-based plastic Premiership fans concept will hopefully be challenged... then again the phrase 'Dream on' springs to mind.

Is that the one by the station? If so it's a bollocks pub anyway. You're better off not bothering with it.

Helluva lot better than the Railway Bell though, or at least so I thought.

I was almost let down by my local, the LION and LOBSTER last night. Got in there, and they had a quiz in the back room, meaning the two TV's in the front were being used for the Brighton and Liverpool games. Asked whether they were gonna put the sound on for the game, the manageress explained she thought the liverpool game would be more interesting. I explained politely that Liverpool was a long way away, and she'd lose my custom for the night, if not longer, if she didn't put the sound on for the Brighton match, and eventually she came around. Would have been shocked and hurt if the Lobster had let me down.

Shameful, that a pub in your own town showed Liverpooll instead. I arrived at The New Crown, South Shields ten minutes after kick off. I expected to find the televisions all tuned to ESPN for the Liverpool match, but there was virtually no-one in the place. I asked the barmaid for the B&HA match on Sky, and she switched to it immediately. Nobody else was bothered about the football.
I was impressed with The Seagulls. Poyet has got the team playing a neat passing game already. Providing the home form is sorted out, and Gus sees out his contract, I think next season is going to be an enjoyable one.

to be honest mate I wouldnt have thought writing letters to a f***ing pub for not showing a football match is hardly going to have the desired effect of confirming the place as a football town, in fact I would say the opposite.

What has happened to the Queens Head by the way? How can you trendify that place? If you asked me which town centre pubs would resist the Nathan-ification that has swept the town, you would have put your money on that one.

Speechless last time I went in.

I was in the Exchange,pretty good for football and a good Albion turnout in there. Heard the Montpelier - good football pub - had both games on, and free chilli for the punters

Shithole that place.

WORD. The free CHILLI was good, too. The missus DIDN'T agree however, and I also got to eat HERS.

Nice to see NMH in there as well, with all his mates.

You should've gone to the room upstairs with two widescreens, you can usually have it to yourself for weeknight footy.

 

[philsussex]

I usually pop in to the Queens Head for a swift pint of cider before the game.

No longer.

 

[The Large One]

Pleased to say that the Lord (Garry) Nelson - with all its old Albion memorabilia on the walls - was showing the match.
