The Black Horse in Monkseaton
originated in 1793 as a two-storey stone building, which was later modified to include a third floor. The building still standing today, a familiar design in the centre of Monkseaton, was constructed on the same site and completed in 1952. Key Dates in the History of The Black Horse:

1793: The original Black Horse Inn is built. Late 1800s/Early 1900s: The pub was also known as the Sportsman's Arms and served as an accommodation for travelers.
1936: The Monkseaton Urban District Council grants permission for the demolition of the original building, allowing the current structure to be built on the site.

We all know the noise. The roar.

Roughly 12,000 Geordies standing shoulder to shoulder in the Gallowgate, full of passion, pride, and belief. A sea of black and white flags rippling as the chants of Blaydon Races echo around St James' Park.

It’s hair on the back of your neck excitement that few grounds in world football can ever match.

Now take a step back.

Imagine looking at that stand on a matchday and seeing nearly half of it wiped out. Over 5,200 empty seats.

Imagine the sudden chill. The silence. The massive, gut-wrenching space where brothers, fathers, sons, and mates used to stand and sing together.

Each year in the UK, roughly 5,200 men take their own lives.

That is over 5,200 empty seats left behind every single year. 5,200 too many.

And that is exactly why we care so deeply about what we do at ANDYSMANCLUB.

We want every supporter heading home to their family after the game, no matter what happened on the pitch.

We want every kid sharing a matchday routine with their dad, grandad, or brother to keep those same seats side by side for decades to come.

We want every single man out there to know that no matter what battle you’re facing behind closed doors, you do not have to carry it on your own.

It’s always okay to talk.

No man left behind.

Right.
Apparently, pubs are “too expensive.” 😬🥵💰

I hear it every day. 🤯

Usually from someone clutching a £6 artisan coffee, scrolling TikTok on a £1,200 phone, while explaining how £6 for a pint is daylight robbery. 💎

But sure. The pub is the problem. 👌

Let me explain this slowly…

You’re not paying £6 for “b**r”! 🍺

You’re paying for an experience, for a community, for…

💸 The heating being on before you arrive.
💸 The lights staying on after you leave.
💸 The loos being scrubbed (you’re welcome).
💸 The glasses being washed.
💸 The staff being paid.
💸 The licences. The insurance. The rates. The tax.
💸 The little bite the card machine takes every single time you tap.
💸 And the fact that when the cellar floods at 11pm on a Tuesday… it’s me in wellies.

You’re not just buying a drink. 🍷

You’re renting a space to exist in public without being moved on. To socialise. To make friends. To feel welcome. To belong. ❤️

Go and sit in the middle of ASDA for three hours debating VAR and see how long that lasts. Try getting banter from a self-checkout. 😅

Pubs aren’t competing with supermarket booze. 🛒

We’re competing with the idea that community should be free. 🏘️❤️

And here’s the bit I find fascinating…

The same people who mourn “the death of the British pub” are the ones who treat us like overpriced off-licences. 🍾

We don’t sell b**r. 🍺

We sell:
👉 First dates that turned into marriages.
👉 Wakes where the real stories came out.
👉 “Ok, just one” that became the best night of the year.
👉 Somewhere to decompress when the world’s had enough of you and you’ve had enough of the world.

We sell a place to not be alone. 🫂

If you want cheap: stay on your sofa with a four-pack of lukewarm cans 🛋️🥵🍻

But PLEASE don’t confuse low cost with value! 🤷‍♂️

Anyway, I’ll be over here - overcharging for heating, chairs, and human interaction. 🔥🪑🤗

Tag a mate who needs to stop being a tight-arse and buy a round! You know the one. 😂👇
