Never visited the place but Nottingham nightspot Baa Bar has closed it's doors forever after 15 years.
Had a bit of a reputation for drug use and violence allegedly.
Anyone ever been and was the reputation justified?

Can I be really picky and ask for the thread title to be changed to 'Past' rather than 'Passed' please?
Never been to Baa Bar either. Always looked a bit grotty from the outside.

Cheers!
There always seems to be places opening and closing around Hockley - hard to keep track of what's there now.

Think the last time I had a drink in Hockley was in Browns!

A new Nottingham version of Monopoly is hitting the shops.
Old Market Square has taken over from Nottingham Castle as ‘The Mayfair of Nottingham’, the most expensive square on the board.
Nottingham Forest’s City Ground stadium moves up the board to a pricier spot than its rivals Notts. County. No surprise there.
Some of the other features on the board, include the Robin Hood statue, Goose Fair, Victoria Centre, Nottingham Express Transit (NET), The Lace Market, Nottingham Castle and the Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem.

When I first started attending the WFCG (1966/7) I was only 15 and I lived in Chesterfield. I would only manage a few home games a season as many as my paper round would pay for. I would catch the train and then walk into the centre and go in the cafe upstairs in Woolworths for my lunch before setting off for the ground. How many remember Woolys and the cafe upstairs?
