I have lived in Staffordshire for 14 years but the place is an institution in Shrewsbury. I used to go every friday night in the late 90's & it was brill. The Buttermarket is no different from any other club when you compare peoples behaviour when under influence of alcohol. Anyone who can't control themselves & who feel it necessary to be violent should be barred & prosecuted. It's not the clubs fault!!!
LONG LIVE THE BUTTERMARKET!!!!!!!!!!

The individuals involved could have been anywhere, it is not as if it happens every day. This is all about councillors being 'seen' to combat a problem, rather than about the problem being addressed.

To restrict the opening times in this manner is a knee-jerk reaction, which if not reversed, will seriously affect Shrewsbury's reputation for live music.

One important thing to remember is that the people who's fun you are ultimately trying to stop also vote for you.
not something to take lightly when this figure runs into thousands.

There arem't really many others so people have to go furthur afield which means bigger a carbon footprint and shrewsbury losing a great thing. It puts shrewstown on the map. Ilove the jazz and roots night, it brings a bit of cultural diversity to a place where there isn't much.

This is a significant club and an historic one at that, I feel it would be a big loss to shrewsbury as a whole, as it brings something extra and alot more other than a pop club for boozers (which brings so much more trouble). Its the only place to bring diverse music and djs from all over to shrewsbury and would be a significant loss
