Where is everyone going to before the game? I'm not very familiar with Manchester as a city so looking for suggestions!

a few in the rodney before we go..then nip into wetherspoons round the corner from the ground..happy days

I asked this question on another thread...But its disappeared due to the shear amount of threads.





I've been to Old Trafford a couple of times, head into the city centre for a few beers before going to Sam Platts near the ground before kick off. The Wetherspoons (Bishop Blaze) and the Trafford arms near the ground get really busy so you have to be early for those two..



Usually in the city centre i just end up in a couple of wetherspoons... So i wouldn't mind knowing of any other decent city centre bars myself..

Isnt the Paramount on Oxford Road a wetherspoons?? not been in a while, remeber it being alright.............

It is indeed..

Think the place we go everyyear is called the Quay House at Salford keys about 5-10 minute walk to the ground from their. There is another pub 5 mins away from that that usually gets rowdy before kick off but the Quay house is very good.

The pub opposite Selfridges, cant think of the name of it, will not let anyone in who has some form of jersey on. They told us last year that we cant go in with football shirts on, they werent happy when we told them that they were Rugby League shirts. Add to that, we were a mixed group with Hull, Leeds, Wigan, Bradford fans all in the group.



Moon Under The Water is a good watering hole. Deansgate doesnt get as chocker as some think. Usually then travel to the Lightning Bar at LCCC or Trafford Bar which is a 10 minute walk to the stadium.



Matt Busby Way is also a good spot for a drink, fans all mix round together and can usually spot a good selection of shirts.

Sinclairs? The olde worlde one?

Sam Platts

Railway Club on Chester Road is a great pre match venue.

Whatever happaend to Tommy Ducks??

Northern Quarter would be a good shout - less likely to see people from Yorkshire in those bars (apart from in the bins).
