Edstar101 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Big Jabba at the Lamplight was a decent big guy. Not sure how tough he really was however fazman1977 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edstar101 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Guy on the door when I worked in a pub in Edinburgh was nothing to look at - under 6 foot, stick thin and ginger to boot He was however a black belt in 4 or 5 different martial arts and a registered instructor in most if not all of them I'll never forget him dealing with 4 massive SA rugby fans - 3 of them leaving rather sheepishly carrying their mate after they misjudged him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthensSaint Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 You knew it had been a good night in the Yorkie when you ended up out the tradesmen entrance next to the ex-service mans rather then the front door at York Place. I was lucky, as Rickardo's Head used to open the emergency door and I was bundled out second after trying to save his arse. rickardo and MySpazz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center Half Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 The back Door at the Yorkie Athens was okay, the exit at the Sally where you ended out in a back alley never did find out where it was in day light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fazman1977 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Bruce McAlpine that's the doorman at McDiarmid Park worked the doors when he was younger, and was a hardy bassa to boot.

chips Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Trying to remember the bouncer at the club that was attached, round the side of The Waverley ??? Chequers bar went through many bouncers, got to the point where they actually hired the main troublemakers on the door. For a short time they had Mick,Con and Jumbo Kelly bouncing but that backfired, then they had Canadian John (Henderson). Like the Yorkie they ended up hiring doormen from falkirk but shut soon after.
