One objector told the licensing board: "When we first moved here 20 years ago there was music four nights a week and the noise levels continued long after the music had finished. Drunken fights were the norm after closing time.
"Obviously we will oppose any extension of the Blue Bell's licence which is going to contribute to recreating that situation."
People living in nearby Hutton Croft have also joined together and formed a petition, bearing 20 signatures so far, that they have submitted to the licensing board. The petition complains of fighting outside the pub, excess noise and glasses being smashed in the street.
Also objecting to the variations to the Blue Bell's licence are officials from Sheffield Council's environmental protection service.
They say the pub is in a residential area and could therefore cause "excessive noise disturbance" for neighbours.
Councillors will decide whether the changes to the licence should be permitted what they meet at Sheffield Town Hall at 10am tomorrow.
