Or Sankey. A few drinks in Altrincham, or Eccles, before getting the tram are both good options if you live in the east or south of the town.
Edit: trains are also frequent from Newton and if you live Culcheth way, the guided bus is brill.

I got a coach from the Rodney last time. Was glad I did after seeing the queues outside Central Station.

Anyone know of any coaches leaving from there this year?

There are 15 of us going. Train from Central around about 12 and then city centre Manchester for drinks and food. Tram to Old Trafford and straight into the ground. From 2012 & 2013 experiences the Pubs around O/T are dire and nothing but rip off selling rubbish beer and charge you to enter what are nothing but flea pits. We are in the South stand towards the 20 metre line by the tunnel.

Can anyone recommend somewhere to eat City Centre Manchester?
Thanks

Solitas is one place I'd highly recommend

A) Ok let's stick nearer to the facts, FC have virtually fielded the same team bar Abdul throughout the season.
B) They finished 3rd behind two teams rife with injuries, and a point or so clear of Saints who at one point was looking at relegation...top spot was pretty much false otherwise FC would have ended the season there when the teams around them were so disadvantaged.
C) I'll tell you something for nothing, Hull will find it very difficult to make the top 6 next year with further disruption to teams.

Gutted to miss it in Ireland and the flights to come back have sold out. Really hope we can do it.

For anyone going deansgate is decent for a nice pint and bite to eat for any real ale drinkers like me The Bank in the town centre by St Peters Square was very good I found last time I was there and did food
