I cant think of many others like that except maybe the Witton Arms for the away fans at VP, and the Red Robin at Wigan. They better not turn that into a bloody restaurant before Saturday!!!

The last time I went to Blackburn I took my dad, who's in his 60s. What joy the Fernhurst was on a cold February afternoon, drinking Aldi lager out of can in the car park because the pub was full. Watching the Villa fans getting more and more boisterous, tipping over the portable toilets, then someone punching a police horse... he hasn't been to an away since!

Outside of Wigan, Billinge. Near the ground, The Anvil. Best pub? Where I will be tomorrow. Where is that? Get to fuck!
