I worked for a large French insurance company who used to sponsor the FA Cup. Our division was looking at sponsorship of the British bobsleigh team until I suggested a few slogans: Going downhill fast On a slippery slope On thin ice.....

pukka Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 How long is the beast from the east supposed to last for? Will this game be on? Pitches are notoriously bobbins after snow too. Can imagine this being a battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) Game could be in some doubt as the beast is forecast to remain all next week in conjunction with storm Emma. Hope its on though. Edited March 1, 2018 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBlue Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 There’s absolutely no way we’re gonna be anywhere round the relegation zone in five games. Let’s get one win closer to the top six and send these fooligan yoofs down again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Usually just go on the Tram for this and drink in town, but I can’t next week and I’ll be driving. So 2 questions, does anyone know any pubs near the ground which has sky sports? Liverpool v Utd next week and I’ll be with a Liverpool fan so need somewere to watch the full game? Also anywere decent to park? Ideally near the pub and stadium as I’m going with someone who can’t walk too far. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think you would be well advised to get a ticket, after the fiasco of a couple of seasons ago. Although even having a ticket on that occasion didn't guarantee entry.

Massive doorman said, "Oldham or Bury," and we said, "Liverpool." Sky Sports on. It's rough as fuck though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's the Rose and Crown too which I think has Sky Sports but that's about a mile from the ground. Best place to park near the ground is across Manchester Road think if you get there early enough it's a short walk. Or you can park beyond the ground around the Cemetery. No pubs near there though.

Joking apart that game five years ago (when Matt Smith scores a late winner) was a farce in terms of ticketing. At least 500 Latics fans locked out, some with tickets, despite thousands of empty seats in the ground. Very little sympathy for those fans offered from our club hierarchy IIRC. Bury were on Granada reports the following week bleating on about how close they were to going to the wall.

There was a (or maybe several?) flare(s) let off in the refreshments area by fans of my 92nd. favourite football club. Must be worse than it was reported for the whole end to be still closed weeks later though, unless we're skint again. Shame for you lot, the Cemy End is a lot better than the Manchester Road End.
