I did post some text but I cant see it now?

The Sandon plays a huge part in Liverpool FC history, John Houlding, team changing rooms etc but is there any displays inside like photos or other stuff illustrating this? Here's my questions:

1. If I go in and get a pint and have a nosey around will I get me face punched in, having a Yorkshire accent?
2. Is there anything to look at once I get in there?
3. Will the bloke who's just about to stick his size 9 into my mouth stop if I explain I am a life long Liverpool fan, despite my Yorkshire accent?

you getting a kick in would have nothing to dowith the accent dude, and a size 9 aint all that.

From what ive heard from my lot going there, a liverpool fan is a liverpool fan, might get some abuse, but itd be friendly rib tickling on the most part

ok, so it's a relatively safe place to nip in for a pint on the way to a game then? providing I dont take me manc mate in there with his manc shirt on?
