who’s off down then? I’ve got day 1 tickets.

Never been, what’s the best boozers round the ground?
 

Got day 3 tickets, not sure what there is round the ground tbh. Was just going to drink in town and get the tram up

What time do you think the pubs open in Manchester? :lol: Don't think I've ever really drunk around OT but there's plenty of bars within walking distance at Salford Quays or a little further to Castlefield. If you go for the latter you're more or less back to town anyway.

Canal Street is a good area, regardless of sexual preference & Chinatown is just across the road!

I cant remember eating anything, I was well fucked off when they stopped serving drinks in the club at 2, even though it was open until 8, but found a solution to that
 
I might wander along.

The Quadrant is the nearest pub to the ground, you're then 5-10 minutes walk from Chorlton and the dozens of hipster bars there.

Interesting. I am sure the GMT website said otherwise, but I bow to your local knowledge!

Might be different as aren't ASLEF off as well? Metrolink drivers had their owned planned strikes (which they called off just in time for Parklife Festival) a few weeks ago.

Remember if you do catch the tram, the trams to Altrincham which stop at OT will be packed out, so get one to Wharfside (Trafford Centre line) or Firswood (Airport and/or Didsbury lines) and walk. 10 minutes max from either.

Thanks. We are going to be coming in the other direction (commuting from Chester and thinking of parking in Altrincham on the strike days and getting train there on the other days). We will get there somehow 😁

Assuming they're running, the trams coming from Alty beforehand and then to Alty after, are fine.
