People have offered to take a 76-year-old grandad for a pint after he claims he was refused entry to a Liverpool city centre bar for being "too old".
Anthony Severs, from Vauxhall, was out on Mathew Street on July 25 when he left The Grapes and walked up to Irish bar McCooley's at around 10pm to get a pint and shelter from the rain. However, Anthony said he was left "shell shocked" when he was turned away by a bouncer, who he claims said he was "too old" to come in.
Retired shipbuilder Anthony told the ECHO he had not experienced anything like it in his near-60 years drinking in Liverpool city centre.
