Deansgate area such as Walkabout and up to Oxford Street/St Peters square for a tram/taxi always works. I dont think Ive ever experienced a better atmoshpere than at the The Paramount Wetherspoons (& Alibi) pub in 2010 its on Oxford street near Portland street.

Not a great deal around Old Trafford. You'd be better going into Manchester. |

Near the ground you have Sam Platts, Bishop Blaize and Tollgate, good luck with those, and pay a small entrance fee.

[quote="Headingley Rhino"]Great win yesterday at our place, there is no denying you are probably the best team in SL as you have proved it all year so I think it's justice done that you have got to Old Trafford. I thought wigan was excellent in the second half and showed why you guys are top dogs this year.: |

Is this the bar near the big wheel with a massive beer garden that a couple of bars seem to share |

I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES.

Sinclairs Oyster bar / wellington / Mitre all within 10 foot of each other, then we drink our way to the Waterhouse wetherspoons on St. Peters square where we then shoe horn oursels onto a tram from there.

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain
coach.

its more like 12 foot tbh
those bars get very very busy but starting there and working your way up to the ground on foot is a good idea as previously mentioned, cask and white lion on liverpool road nr deansgate stn are good if you like real ale, good guest beers in cask

Those pubs are fine, but just be aware as United are on Sky at 5pm they may be really full and last time I was there they weren't letting fans in with football tops on. When I explained I was wearing a rugby top they were OK about it. Should be OK for GF though.
