There is no argument really... Bars can refuse who they want. If a bar feels that barring uniformed members means their bar stays intact, then its within their right.... Are there service people here who can honestly say its never happened to them in the past? Would be a touch disingenuous.
The FAMILY have accepted the apology for this MISUNDERSTANDING....

No it hasnt, its only recently that service personnel have started travelling home etc in uniform , as i've stated before soldiers tend not to go out for a night on the piss in uniform, you'd know that if you lived here .
Wow.

Well aren't you a pleasant individual.
Exactly. Can't see why there is even a debate.
In fact going further than this uniform ban - there were quite a few pubs in Winchester 15-20 years ago where squaddies were banned completely - uniform OR civvies.

Bushy...youre talking bullshit...it was like that in Portsmouth in the 70s ffs...
Youre right, most dont go out in uniform, it was positively discouraged due to the IRA, but what is the history of this bar? Do you know? Has there been trouble there in the past with military in uniform? Do you know?...
The FAMILY have accepted it was a MISUNDERSTANDING....but, im sure you will be indignant on their behalf for them.

its in coventry you prick, there are no bases there, and the FAMILY who weren't banned have accepted an apology, probably the last thing they want to be bothered with now, but the squaddies who were banned , most of whom werent family, havent accepted anything, and stop with this "misunderstanding" crap , the issue i and others are complaining about is the fact that uniformed soldiers were banned in the first place, funeral or no funeral.

Never had a problem in Guzz either...Portsmouth was different though... was a few places that were pretty anti..
The only major incident I was involved in Guzz was an attack on 'Rooftops' club in Plymouth after one of our people was badly beaten in there, in uniform, by
local skins... we were dragged out of our beds, told to dress in fatigues, webbing belts and boots, and were transported by Navy vehicles to the venue, and destroyed the place...Portsmouth seemed to have plenty of places that were anti uniform, and there are often problems between the military and civiians in some of the garrison/navy towns. To deny it is a little bit silly. Added to that, we are involved in a war that a large portion of the country has trouble with, and will make statements as such to soldiers if identified....which, as we can see from the board today, a reaction is always going to be there, and usually aggressive...
And yes, there are no bases there, but there are bases in nearby towns....
Sorry Bushy, I realise that you want to be beatified by the British public for being in uniform, but a lot of the country wont agree with you.

Can't help thinking this is probably the case. Just as lots of pubs near football grounds say no football colours
