Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Brechin's Bar in Govan is often called The Black Mans, this in relation to the statue of not a black man on the corner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 How can anyone feel ashamed of a pub named after a dog... It appears to be a local tradition in the town dating back centuries: You getting into a total nick over this is pretty much the least surprising thing on P&B ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in Linlithgow on Saturday as well (the real one ). All the locals I know think Greene King are being a bit silly about the pub name...............although none of them would be seen at the Gammon protest. They also all think the pub is pish (we certainly never drink there if we are out). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Are there any other pub names the folk of P&B find objectionable? As an aside the Red Lion in Aberdeen was known as The Beastie but I don't think Prince Andrew ever drank in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
