Actually the sign says 'No prams inside the bar during LIVERPOOL matches..Sorry!' ..I know because I wrote it. We do not allow prams or buggies in the bar during a Liverpool match and we make no excuses for that decision. Had you bothered to come anywhere near to Shankly's in the build up to game you could have seen it first hand. We are shoulder to shoulder with supporters who come at least an hour before kickoff to get seats and standing room inside and outside the bar. Those who come prior to the match with buggies can fold them and store them under the pool table for the duration of the game. So to conclude. With the exception of 90 minutes of a Liverpool match, buggies and prams are welcome in the bar as you would have found had you bothered to come in at any other time.

We use plastic 'glasses' during Liverpool matches for ease and safety and start to change over to them about an hour before kickoff..unfortunately you came in as we were changing over. As I recall, there were abut 6 people in the bar who were finishing their drinks in glasses. I did not serve you, but overheard the exchange. It should have been explained in a better way. I apologise
