Aside from Salford in the cup, this was my first away game this season and there were certainly a lot of Arsenal fans or neutrals who had bought up tickets in our end. I did see a couple of people openly celebrating the Arsenal goals too. It would only have taken one idiot who's had a few too many t...

I don't tend to listen to the pundits anymore, but what an absolute whopper this guy is - can't believe he's still getting the opportunity to give his 'analysis.' Some comments from his Team of the Week picks on the BBC: "We know Erling Haaland can score goals but his second against a Burnley side w...

El Gato Negro for excellent tapas.

Sud Pasta in Ancoats is great option for pasta.

Gaucho for steak.

Pre-season double header at Gigg Lane this weekend - Bury playing Bradford City tomorrow then PNE on Sunday.

Anyone going along?

BuryClaret

Welcome Lawrence.

Solid backup option by the sounds of it - Leyton Orient fans raving about him. Don't think he'll be the only keeper through the door this summer either.

BuryClaret

Feels like they've been working on that town hall for an eternity. Wonder what it'll look like once it's finished.

BuryClaret

I remember watching them being escorted down Centenary Way from the train station and thinking there might be trouble - most of them looked like your classic European ultras, dressed all in black with no club colours.

They are in the North West Counties Football League Premier Division which i think is where they were playing last season under the name of Bury AFC.

Correct. Ramsbottom United have just been relegated to that same division, if you're looking a local non-league derby next season.

BuryClaret

Great to see the news that Bury FC will be back playing at Gigg Lane in 2023/24.

It was sad to see the ground lying empty for so long. Can't wait to get back to a game there!

It's a lovely place. Stayed in Budva, which is basically it's tourist resort on the coast. The Old Town there is beautiful and a day trip out to Kotor is definitely worth it.

BuryClaret

Following a tough run, we now have what you'd like to think is an easier next five matches where we can pick up the points required to all but secure promotion. Our next tough run looks to be in April, when we face Sunderland, Boro and Sheff United. How many points do you see us getting from the nex...

It's really sad that we're starting to lose first-hand testimonies about the atrocities as Holocaust survivors pass away. Something that everyone should know about from a young age so it can never be repeated again.

Didn't the Swedish league finish in November? Match fitness may be an issue.

Is that correct? Thought the Bury to Altrincham tram went direct to Trafford bar and Old Trafford?

You’re right, I’d forgotten that! Tells you how long it’s been since I’ve used the tram

BuryClaret

OK, so probably for another thread but I am wondering the best way to travel to OT for the game from Burnley - I don't normally travel from Burnley but this time I am as I am picking the (adult) kids up on the way. I was considering using the tram park and ride from Bury or Whitefield...? thoughts?...

How is Franchi playing in these U21 games? You’d imagine BPF will get the nod in the cup, but wondering how far off this guy is from the first team level.

BuryClaret

I think that might be the one I was thinking of. Was it a night match ? Had some fun over the years at Blues. Remember the Brummie kid to our right giving it large, then trying to hurdle multiple rows of seats pursued by plod, only to trip up over the last one and get his collar felt. And the one w...

BuryClaret

Fun memories of trips to Birmingham - the crazy 3-3 when we went in front 3 times before conceding in the 92nd minute.

Then the promotion season in 2016 where Andre Gray scored the winner down in front of us and Dyche pointed at his strong jaw.

Any tips on parking? First time visiting both the Stadium of Light and the city of Sunderland for me!

Have you tried Bury, Rochdale or Oldham?

Good shout. Have a look at The Village Hotel Bury or The Red Hall Hotel. Both right next to the M66 and should be around £100 for a night.

BuryClaret

Anyone know how well these are selling? Looking forward to a first visit to the Stadium of Light.

BuryClaret

West Brom had a drum.

In my view relying on one to create an atmosphere is pretty cringeworthy.

BuryClaret

For those who exit/access the M65 at junction 9, ( Hapton turn off), The A646, Rossendale Rd, has a 3 way traffic contol outside the Texaco petrol station causing long tail backs at busy periods. Thanks for the heads up - that's my normal route so I'll go through Rawtenstall and via the A682 instead.

Late to this one but would recommend Trackside if you're looking for real ales - lovely place with a lot of character (and characters who drink there!)

If you fancy venturing a bit further out the town centre, Holcombe Tap in Ramsbottom is brilliant.

Fat Frank will be long gone from Everton by the time he gets to put a bid in for THB.

BuryClaret

It was a good following and atmosphere last night - impressive given it was a Friday night game in the Midlands.

Some idiots decided to let a flare off on the concourse before the match though, which sort of ruined it a bit for me.

BuryClaret

Also in the collect at the ticket office boat tomorrow. Feels like such a faff having to do this pre-match. Bought via my dads Clarets no so let’s hope they accept the booking confirmation as ID!

Mine arrived yesterday morning - I suspect the strikes won't have helped, but hopefully they turn up mate

I emailed the ticket office and surprisingly got a response. They said they'd posted it out earlier in the week so here's hoping. Otherwise it'll be a mad dash down on Friday to collect it.

We can strike Hannibal Mejbri from United off the list - not that there was ever anything concrete in that. Is close to joining Birmingham on loan apparently.

Hannibal Mejbri available to go out on loan from United apparently, with 3 unnamed Championship clubs having made provisional offers - one leading the way currently.

Mine also showing Area A2 then Block A3?

I couldn't select a seat number or row - so lucky dip! Have ended up with Row DD but no idea how far back that is.

BuryClaret

I suspect these might not get to general sale or even the 2,000 point category. Impressive given the number of tickets.

Nixon reckons we're making a good go at getting Sepp Van den Berg from Liverpool.

Thanks for all the info Transpennine - super helpful! Think I'm going to aim for parking in the Cambridge Rd / Claire Hill area as suggested, coming off at Jct 24.

There seems to be some big cocking up at the ticket office. Our tickets were bought be me but have been delivered to my brother's house. We didn't get a ticket using his clarets number.
