manchester based fans

[bnfrnkln]

afternoon all,
firstly i hope ive not been tarnished for life on NSC for starting the elliott bennett to norwich thread

I'm on the move from worthing to manchester tomorrow in search of fame and fortune and while packing my albion shirts into my bag i wondered how many other fans are based around the city centre up there? wouldn't mind sitting down in a pub for soccer saturday and hearing cheers when we stick a few past watford on saturday.
any good recommendations for bars etc?

cheers, and see you at oldham and rochdale

Good luck in Manchester, great city and had four very good years up there, but pack warm for games at the Dale!

There's quite a few of us in Manchester, we do travel to a lot of the away games (just done Southampton, Exeter and Bournemuff) and Watford, Orient and Brizzle are all lined up for next week.

Whenever the Albion are on TV we go to a pub together and baffle the locals, so you will be more than welcome.

 

[house your seagull]

there's a handful of us but we don't meet up unless we're live on the box.

where abouts you moving to?

 

[bnfrnkln]

moving to the deansgate locks area.
the plymouth game is on sky in about a months time if i remember rightly? if you meet up for that let me know!

Cheers

i normally put a little post on here if we're watching in a pub so keep your eyes peeled.

I live in Manchester, but have never been to a pub meet up

Deansgate locks is lively on a weekend night, but then I guess you already know that!

Welcome to the republic of mancunia,hope you enjoy your time here,give this pub a visit ,The Peveril of the Peak, a few FC United fans meet on a wednesday for a few beers.

Deansgate is good for the birds!

Summer coming - Duke 92 is the place to go, massive beer garden concreted but alongside the canal (should get some images on google)...get there early if you want a decent seat though!

Mojos Bar - tucked away bar that is rock n roll/cocktails/beer/indie music/elvis/stones/beatles/Arctics...you name it, they play it!!

AVOID the printworks - Think of West Street and you're close!

Manchester rocks....and no there are no cobbled streets, drug wars, gangs etc etc etc......I lived there over 5 years in that area and never saw trouble once!

Enjoy!!!!!

Oldham is always bitterly cold as well

I live in Manchester as I go to Uni here, get yourself to Fallowfield (20mins on the bus from deansgate locks) and get to the Friendship Inn. Alongside about 10hd tv's they've got ESPN and some hookey channel subscription from abroad, meaning they show so many games. I watched the Arsenal, United and Villa game in there this eve!
