The bouncers are absolute wankers, every one of them. We have been thrown out on many times for stupid reasons. One of my friends got banned for ages for 'drinking on the dancefloor', we are all banned now for singing scotland songs in triple kirks after a scotland game which i find totally ridiculous, they werent nasty songs or anything just cheering on our nation. Some more of my friends got completely battered last week and both had to go to hospital. I find it absolutely ridiculous and something needs to be done. The amount of times weve been thrown out for 'overly enjoying the songs' when you see a bunch of neds having fights and are allowed back in the next week. Weve never started fights and get on with most of the staff but are not allowed in because sometimes we dance too much. Weve always accepted to leave when told but its absolutely ridiculous. Especially the irish cunt, he's a complete knob

Nah, it's not. It's identification. He's a cunt that's Irish apparently, not a cunt because he's Irish.

Obviously there are a few people who have a problem with the conduct of some doorstaff at Triple Kirks/Exodus. I would advise anyone who feels they have been unjustly treated to discuss the issue soberly with the management and doorstaff at the pub. I've brought this thread to the management's attention and they are looking into the issues raised by it.

I would stress that if you do have a genuine grievance then airing it in public on this site is not going to help your chances of reconcilliation. If any libellous or defamatory material that directly affects the pub's business is aired on this thread they would be within their rights to ask us to delete such material. This puts me in a tricky situation and I hope everyone here understands the position I'm in. I and the rest of the staff will moderate this thread as usual and we ask that everyone complies with the forum rules.

Agreed. Here's what I suggest. Everybody who's had issues with the bouncers at Exo at any point in time, or has witnessed someone else get rough or unjust treatment PM me with details of what happened or what you saw, and a rough idea of the date of the occurence. Once I have a few I'll write a letter outlining my greivances from Friday and also how sick everyone else is at the treatment they've recieved there and also how some people are afraid to go back, citing all these stories as examples, and I'll send it to the manager of TKs, the manager the Scream group and the head of Option 1 security who supply the doorstaff. I would suggest Scream and TKs would take it very seriously, it can't be good for business having your customers beat up by the very people who are employed to make sure everyone is safe.

Which might be a bit of problem for this thread? The sort of thing that might get it deleted/closed?

Discussing the general cuntishness of some bouncers is quite different to identifying specific ones (unless you have good witnesses).

That's very true.

I simply hate to see people getting wrongly labelled as racist. And it's pretty important that gag reflexes don't go flying off the handle this scenario, as the allegation would likely blunt their claim.
