Who sponsors Us and Sale Dolphins why the MEN, so this should be part of the sponsorship deal, in reality it costs the sponsor nothing but gets away from the empty spaces, could even have it pop up on the MEN website. Just a thought.

I work so close to the ground its unfair.

It's extremely well run. We need to get them in as advisors.
(And I wish I could go to the Crown, the OLd Vic [my local at work], or the Armoury befoe a game!!!!!!!!!!).

Aye, some cracking pubs in Stockport - but Salford can boast The New Oxford, The King's Arms & The Crescent - a bit of a stroll to the Willows but worth the effort.

Incidentally, jumping the gun somewhat, anyone know of any decent pubs in the vicinity of Barton (planning years in advance)? My local knowledge only extends to the western borders of Eccles.

Closest Holts pub is the The Grapes on Liverpool Rd Peel Green, used to be my local till we moved.St Mikes social club and the Unicorn both just up the road serving no doubt the usual suspects of the kep variety.
At the Irlam end of Barton Stretch, is the Golf club not sure about non members etc and then into Irlam there`s the Nags Head and the Sports/White Lion.And that my friend is about your lot.
