Manchester Seasiders: BIERKELLER on the 18TH

Bloody hell! I live just outside the city centre so no proper local pubs, have to venture in and its like London prices now in a lot of places - £5 pints!

Even the cheap gaffs ain't that cheap!
£2.00 a pint where I am too, in the Village Club 👌

Lucky buggers! Deaf Institute had a £2 pint for a while and it was glorious, must have been clearing stock or something because they eventually stopped it.

Since moving here whenever I go back to Blackpool (usually for Blackpool games), I almost tear up at the price of beer. I'm becoming far too accustomed to spending £4 - £5 on a pint, certainly burns a hole on a big night!

Utd also playing that night is going to throw a bit if a spanner into things

Both on Sky too so can't have two screens showing different games I don't think
 
Any concrete plans on this yet now we know the date?
Good timing that, I looked on O'Sheas website (big beer garden with screens behind Piccadilly) the other night and it's fully booked.

I'm literally in the middle of emailing Joshua Brooks asking about their booking availability that night (can't find anything on their website/Facebook to do so). Hopefully they'll get back and they'll have adequate enough room, as Ockers has pointed out - with United playing it might be difficult to find somewhere in the city centre
 
I'm not hopeful with Joshua Brooks if I'm honest.
- Facebook/Twitter pages look completely inactive since March last year.
- Emailed the address listed and I got an automated response saying it doesn't exist!

I've messaged them on Facebook asking if they're re-opening, but you think they'd have announced they were considering restrictions are lifted next week. May have to move onto the next one unfortunately!
 
The United game is going to make it difficult for the more popular sports bars in town. Tib Street Tavern would be perfect but think it’s popular with United fans.
What were the others that were suggested, Footage and Blackdog Ballroom? Brotherhood is good too.

Would be quite amusing watching United fans turn up to find they can’t watch them play because Blackpool are on.

Other suggestions were
- The Footage (student area and always rammed on match nights, I assume they'll favour the United game)
- Blackdog Ballroom (could be decent, from the pictures I've looked at though it doesn't seem to have many screens)

Is Tibstreet Tavern not a bit small as well?

I don't imagine The Printworks are busy on weeknights? Could try get in the Bierkeller there as they have a huge basement area with big screens. Never heard of Brotherhood I'll check it out

Yeah I’ve been in Blackdog but never for sport so can’t remember what the screes were like, it’s a big area though.

Tibstreet Tavern has loads of screens and has two floors but not huge as you say.

The Bierkeller could be great shout! If it’s going to be somewhere in the city centre we’ll probably have to settle for a bar that’s not a go to for football fans.
 
Think we've hit the jackpot folks.

Received an email back of Bierkeller, they have 350 seats available. She just wants me to get back to her with an estimate of numbers so anyone on here that isn't on twitter that is coming let me know how big your party is and I can add it to the tally!
Could you add a party of 4 for me please?
 
Sent them the numbers like they asked and haven't received a response yet. Hope it's just cos she's busy with something else!
 
Looking at that twitter thread it looks like over 50 will be attending
Really hoping Bierkeller come through with their original claim as it'll be a great night with the amount that have got in touch. Panicking a bit because they haven't replied!

They’ll probably be back in in the morning, don’t think they have an outdoor area there do they? So won’t be operating regular hours.

Would imagine they’ll be buzzing to have what will be their busiest night in a long while.

I'm hoping so as well, even if they don't we can find somewhere that will be more than happy for the business!
 
I remember reading a thread on here of a hilarious meet up for the 09/10 playoff 2nd leg with Manchester based Blackpool fans. Even Jeff Stelling rocked up..

So my question is, now I'm Manchester based, what pub we meeting in for the first leg considering it will be mid week? Those who organised last time feel free to take the reigns..
The Last Chance Saloon, would seem appropriate😉
 
Watching that video reminded me of very similar scenes in the Prince of Wales in Victoria in that there London where there must have been a hundred Pool and then a few years later at The Constitution in Pimlico for the Birmingham play off semi. Great times.

I was in the Constitution that night. Memorable. 😋

One or two familiar names on the Manchester Seasiders page - we're moving that way later this year as my wife has a new job in a school starting in the new school year.
 
Has she come back to you?
Nope, had a busy day yesterday so didn't send them anymore emails (I sent them three on Monday), was hoping they'd just get back to them. I've just sent them another one and if they don't reply by tonight I'm going to start emailing other places
