Amongst others one is very apt for the naysayers.

I believe one evening a shout went out there was a problem in gents, and upon his arrival some went to town on him (especially doing his knees). Chinese whispers, only something I heard. Just, it coincided with him not being seen again within that fraternity.. |

I did some security work myself and The legend of Patrick was about for years after his enforced retirement. Sadly after he was filled in another bunch of thugs took over, who took great delight in throwing people about for a bit of sport on a Saturday night. I think one had a surname of Baxter but I could be wrong.
Patrick was actually alright, he just didn’t let anyone in if you’re dress code wasn’t on point, you were too drunk, underage or acting like a Burke. He let me in on most occasions despite me being at least 1 of the aforementioned in my youth.

You can't p!ss off so many without someone having a word somewhere. He abused his power. Ironic that by stopping so many knees up that's exactly what he got... Say no more. |

Remember that documentary called Muscle about those clowns 🤡 I think Ronnie Baxter worked the doors at Tiffanys in the 1970's & 80's. An absolute thug, but he also raised a fair bit for charity over the years, he used to dress up as a fairy for various charitable events, I seem to recall. For those of you wondering where Tiffanys was, the top Of Blackboy Hill, where the Spire hospital now stands. |

I worked at Odyssey and remember Patrick, scary bugger but as a lowly glass collector helped me out more than once |

Blimey! Perhaps I should have started a separate thread on this. I didn’t know the names but I do remember there used to be two of them on the door at Odeyssey (I think one was slightly oriental looking but might be misremembering that?). I remember being turned away in Yate as well (was it Spirals? Is it still there?). I borrowed someone’s clothes to look different and went back for a second attempt - almost got away with it but caught before I got to the top of the stairs.
... anyway, back to Coughlan ...
