Anyone plot up somewhere suitable for a mixed crowd round Salford Quays in the afternoon/ before game, give it a mention on here, cheers 

We'll be having a few around Deansgate and will then head over to Salford Quays around 4.00pm - avoids the packed trams if we leave it any later. The Beefeater sounds good but shout out where you're drinking.

Do the trams go to Salford Quays?

Not your everyday pre-match routine! having a beer in the pool, off for an afternoon/evening safari and arrive back to the hotel just before kickoff and they’re going to put the game on… COYR!

also, probably a stupid question but on the trams can you just tap in and out like the tube?

Only seems to get busy 3 nights a week so no problem getting a pint. 😉

The Red Robin

Work finished and on my way to Bradford Interchange. Staying in Deansgate but might be an idea to head over to the ground early.

Third pint just finished at the hotel - heading for Mulligans next and then Salford Quays.

We're thinking Salford Quays is our best het given we have to collect tickets pre match and it doesn't make sense to head out to OT back into the city and out again. So also looking for suggestions

Gonna walk over there now

The reputation of Mulligans is deserved. Very good Guinness.

I’m trying the Caffreys in Mulligans but will move onto the Guiness …. Cheap at £6-20 😳

Not packed - but decent number of Charlton fans in the Lime Bar Salford Quays.
