What are you on about? there are no screens in there at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy had spent many years (30?) at the top Freedom on South Road before moving to the Cottage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron99 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Surely a pub this good will be taken on by someone at some stage & open again? https://www.thestar.co.uk/business/sadness-another-sheffield-pub-falls-victim-coronavirus-pandemic-2926071 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it was Wardy, and before that Les May at the Hallamshire on Commonside. Les May. Liked chatting to him. Didn't he play for Accrington Stanley?

chris101 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Bad reporting by The Star the lease for the pub is available so to say it's closing is a bad headline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was an old thread that was revived. Perhaps mods could change the title before the pub loses anymore custom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
