    Chaucers Exeter or The Griffin Carlisle. Great CAFC celebrations in the latter on 14/4/12.

    It may be where i drink regularly, but, the New Barrak Tavern, on Penistone Road about 400 metres from Hillsborough is a decent shout. It a real ale mecca if you like that kind of stuff. Proper old pub. Good banter/chat with Wendies, and the owner Kev is a top bloke (you can't miss him, his build is like tangoman but with a shirt on), compares a bit at the comedy club there once a month. Also you can park easily park behind the pub. Barmaids are not anything to put on a thirst though.

    Another shout was the rugby club up at Carlisle.

    I really like the Green Bricks in Hull last season on the Marina. Shame we are losing that from our fixture list but only from that perspective.

    The Beehive near Bolton's ground. Decent grub and a good choice of beer including an away day special called "Beehive Yourself" which has a rather fruity taste to it. Should be going back there again next season depending on when it is.

    Brunswick is great of course.

    I was going to go for the NBT. Fantastic pub, and the only decent boozer in Hillsborough by a country mile.

    Is that the one with the bar down the left hand side as you walk in, has two rooms on the right and a small paved garden? Quite close to the big Morrisons and Pizza Hut?

    Norwich boozer by the canal.

    One of the first games of the season 3/4 years back. Was in there by 10, not a cloud in the sky, sitting by the canal, brilliant day out.
    Great shout that - the Compleat Angler isn't it?
    That's the one

    Brunswick close, but Hogans in Darlington is the stuff of legend.
    50p a pint back when you paid £1 normally.

    100%, plus Kelham Island is very decent for a pub crawl.

    Cap n Gown at Villa Park (legendary day out there in 1998)
    Sky Blue Tavern at Highfield Road Coventry
    The Arkells at Anfield
    No idea what it is/was called, but there was a CIU Club behind the away end at Stockport was pure phoenix nights - even had a Hammond organ.
