Pretty sure that The Maypole (https://maypolefreehouse.co.uk https://maypolefreehouse.co.uk), which is round the back of the Baron, is safe... thank goodness.

- nerdponx 2y ago> We are a Euro FREE Zone which means no sports will be shown at the pub. American here. What the heck does this mean?
- dickiedyce 2y agoLOL. Pubs in the UK tend to fall into roughly 2 camps... with TV, and without. And the with TV ones can be quite extreme, and conversation can be difficult when people are distracted by a TV visible whichever way you look. During the European football championships, lots of pubs have wall-to-wall football coverage (as in soccer, not Rugby in drag) which serious drinkers might want to avoid ;-) (And for the more sports obsessed, it also makes, avoiding seeing the scores before you get home and watch it properly on catch-up much easier...)
- pm215 2y agoIt means they haven't updated their website since summer when the European football championships were on :-) (and that, as the sibling comment says, they're advertising themselves as a pub where you go to avoid the coverage rather than a pub where you go to watch it).
