  • there must be a premier inn or travelodge or both in manchester
  • We've used the Travelodge/Inn (cant remember which) at the Trafford Centre before... not ideal location but only a short cab ride into the City centre....

    Double post...
  • there are loads of travelodges in manc, but seeing as most of the supporters aren't from manc, they sell out quickly

    used to stay in the dolby, which is near blackfriars bridge and now called the "stay inn" but its cheap and might be booked up, but its v reasonable if you do get in there

    will have a think elsewhere. you could try a hotel towards fallowfield/rusholme and cab it in?

    Sort of accurate Medders....

    As you know I am manc born and bred.

    The affair started in 1987 thinking Chorlton were a manc team.

    Chorlton is a place in Manc.

    Then it was 6 months until I went to my first game on Jan 1 1988 when Chorlton were away to Man U.

    It took another 6 months to be convinced they were Charlton from SE London.

    20 or so years on still a fan and now I am working in Kent.

    As for places to stay Curbit - the suggestions made already sound good.
  • nice one PP, i like that story, its a good un
  • It's a good un the first 30 times you hear it.... the next few hundred arent...
