In the 70's there was a couple of guys (irish?) who I worked with and saw in the old Mitre (until spotted by the landlord). Jim ? and Mick (Murphy?) Mick got done for biting a police dog.

I just about remember the browns 2 irish lads who used to work the doors. Think it was Jimmy and Sam it could be that sam was the dad of Jimmy. .
