A Northumberland woman said she was shocked to be turned away from a Newcastle City Centre bar over her NUFC T-shirt.
Sue Dearne, 64, branded a blanket policy, banning anyone wearing football team designs from Barluga, on Grey Street, 'ridiculous', after she was refused entry. The lifelong Newcastle United supporter said she even offered to cover up the offending top with a cardigan - but she said she was told that wasn't good enough.
A spokesperson for the Vaulkhard Group, which owns the bar, told ChronicleLive it is a policy that has been in place at the venue for 20 years and is there to 'ensure the environment for all customers is maintained.'
