The landlord of an iconic old-school West End pub, famed for hosting football legends, says he has been "forced out" after three decades in the job.
Steve Burns has spent half of his life as the tenant of the Black Bull on Barrack Road - catering to crowds of Magpie fans and a "great bunch of locals".
He said he was informed by the owner of the building, Trust Inns, via e-mail that he had 10 days to exit the premises in November 2021 otherwise he would be chased for dilapidation cost.
