Gaiety wasn't that bad, though it was a den of iniquity. You were usually safe in there despite the scum bags and dealers because it was usually full of off duty coppers and press!'"
I actually used to get dragged around a lot of unsavoury pubs in the early 80s by my copper mate who had recently volunteered for undercover work, the Hayfield in Chapeltown and the pub in the middle of the Uni/Poly campus (Faversham ?) were prime locations for spotting open drug dealing - I got to be quite an expert
And while I could easily pass for a scruffy unmade bed sort of student in my RAF greatcoat, my mate insisted on keeping his police short back and sides, John Holmes stylee moustache and a black leather jacket - all the things that pronounced "I am a copper" to the pubs inhabitants, he may as well have carried a siren and a flashing blue light - you can imagine that we had some uncomfortable evenings

| Quote: LFCRhino "No offence Damo lad but I hardly think the first thoughts of people when you walk into a pub would be " oh look hes a gangster/drug dealer lets shoot him" !!
I would have thought it would be more along the lines of " ID him"
No its usually "ooh look, its Alan Carr"

| Paul sykes the ex boxer was the glass collector in the gaiety just before it closed and the strippers were dogs! What was the name of the big white pub further up in Chapeltown that got closed after a shooting? was well dodgy, also the Market tavern was very lively in my youth
