The Ninian Pub !!

Sun Apr 17, 2011 8:54 pm

To be honest i think the Pubs days are numbered. On a Match day it is used to the Maximum but even after the game the place is Dead. I cant imagine what its like on non match days. But to be honest i now don't like even drinking in Canton on match days, i hate with a passion drinking out of plastic cups. That's why i prefer the City Centre for having a proper glass.
Back to the Ninian Pub!! also it has no atmosphere or character about the place and if it was my local i would not use it. I dont even know what they could do to change it but to be honest i cant see it surviving for long on the basis of 2 hours before the game. My honest opinion.

The Nin was always my local over the years but the last 8-10 has just gone to nothing

it is always dead nothing going on and who wants to pay extortionate rates mid week when if you wanna drink you can do it cheap in the house with friends and have a fag indoors

all pub dyas are numbered!

Fair play they are trying hard--footie on Sky. Karaoke on Saturday Carvery 4.99

Its just in a bad spot with too much competition.

I had a pint of real ale in Witherspoons yesterday for 1.55 then a few pints of Carlsberg in the Corp and Clive for 1.99


Hard for them to compete

I just dont know whats happening to our pubs-- I went past the Vic Park tonight and there looked like about 6 people in there and the Clive had about 12 in.


I think young people more are much more boring and lacking in personality than us over 40s.

Steve start drinking in the Ivor Davies mate in Canton it is a wetherspoons and they serve bow in glass before the game and straight after.
I too am pissed off drinking out of plastic as i was loyal to the canton cross for years but now the wetherspoons for me. :ayatollah:
Not bad prices either and more choice of drink :D :ayatollah:

We started in the Kiwi bar in town last weekend. Beer was £1.75 a pint :ayatollah:
Moved onto Prince then into ground. I never drink in the ground tho, its foul.
Back into town after the game then. Although i do enjoy a nice pint in the Corp or Cornwall (depending which way we walk back)

Not only does drinking out of a plastic cup in the Ninian turn the drink fowl and warm - but it makes me feel like an under-age Chav, I think if they dont go back to glass like most other pubs in Canton, I might have to start finding somewhere else to drink! fed up of having to down 4 cans on the way in now!!! :lol:

Say what you think don't hold back :lol:

Re: The Ninian Pub !!

Annis you are very quiet on this subject. But what are the chances of getting proper glasses and not just for yourself bought back to the Ninian ? What are the stats for trouble in the Ninian pub before a game in the last ten years ? I bet it is f**k all. But what pisses me off is they use those really shiity plastic cups and it makes a pint like shit and to be honest if there is a pub in Cnton that uses glasses then i am of there. :cry: :cry:

Marc it if f*cking disgusting and to be charged nearly £3 for the pleasure is a f*cking rip off. I thinks it is boycot the Ninian until it behaves like a normal pub and serves beer Lager cider in a glass like it should do :evil: :evil: . I was in there on Sat Chief after the game until the Semi had finished sorry i missed you
