WIDNES:- This is the first away trip of the season and unfortunately, real ale wise, possibly the poorest. Widnes is a real ale desert, so much so that only the local Wetherspoons can be safely recommended for a decent pint. You will find The Premier on Albert Road, a five minute drive or fifteen minute walk from Naughton Park. It is an old picture house which closed in the sixties. An impressive building where you will encounter the usual 'spoons offerings. Not the best of places for a crawl but the next away trip will make up for that! Enjoy your ale, enjoy the match.
