    I was joking when I said the Beach Ballroom it was a good place but the organisation was crap, I got chased by Lee McAllisters Granny.

    The York Hall, and IMO it is not even close. It got no better than watching live virtually ringside boxing from the bar.

    The worse venue I ever went to was Loftus Road, from the moment we walked out the Station (White City) and dog **** was smeared all down the hand rails for the stairs, to the 60s dump of stadium, I knew the fight better be bloody good!

    Kings Hall (at least for McGuigan fights) seemed even better.

    :-( :nono

    York Hall is still the best and when that place is packed there is no where in Britian that creates the same atmosphere...

    And for those who know the place well, there is no better place in the World for cheap ringside seats and I do mean RING SIDE :deal
