Bouncer Laws

[gaza123]

i was refused entry into a pub due to it being too late. but due to my drunken state i got verbal with the bouncers in a slightly abusive way. Due to being a young girl i did not get physical with the bouncers nor was i on the premises at the time. They are proceeding to barr me from the pub for a period of time now but i want to know if legally they can barr me even when i wasnt on the premises or for not getting physical..(apparently i called them every name under the sun) Also these bouncers work for a company outside of the pub and not for the actual pub itself. They are hired to work there.

I'd say each place has its own discretion for who they do and don't allow into their premises and as the bouncers often get the brunt of any trouble they probably rely on their judgment.

Regardless of the fact you were techinically on the premises and didn't get physical, you were still in a drunken state, showing you can't control you alcohol, and abusive so I can't say I blame them.

If it was discriminatory against race, disability etc... then you may have a case but they probably just don't want potential troublemakers in their premises.

i dont care about them not letting me in that night. But to barr me from there for a period of time for one mishap. Ive been going there for the past 2 years and never once sparked trouble.

Hmmm, Doorman can refuse entry to anyone they like. If you dont agree, all you can do is write to the owner.
Doorman have a hard enough job to do, without some pumped up little kid causing trouble inside.
Many innocent drinkers get hurt because of drunken behaviour inside. They would prefer to not let you in so as to protect you and other people.
If i was you, i would go back and apologise and grovel, then next time you go down there, you might get in then...

Gaza 1 2 3 - You are onto a loser, I'm afraid. Better luck next time !!!

They can bar you for as long as they like even for no reason at all.

They can bar whoever they want for whatever reason.

Make not to self - dont get drunk and then get involved in a row with doormen because you wont win.

Dimwit.

Read your post. Young girl? Drunk? Abusive? Doesn't remember what was said?

If you were in charge of the premises, what would you do?
