My mother, her partner & I will be in the south stand.

That is cheap, cheaper than the North stand at Warrington. I also agree with that comment on dullness.

Went last year with some Leeds fans, but this time taking a Union fan who wants to learn more about League. Will be in the P&B!

As for pubs, avoid the Trafford and the Bishop Blaize, I'd say. Best is the Knott next to Deansgate, great beer from the Marble Brewhouse.

I live five minutes on the tram in the other direction, so I'll be loading up in the pubs of Sale beforehand

I'll be there as per usual.

The cage awaits.

Any fans out in Manc after the game? I've got a pass out and will probably be anonymously bumping into Ian 77 again in the NQ.
