Manchester_Owl Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Calling all Manchester Owls, Just spoken to the manager at the Red Lion Pub in Withington. They will be playing the match for us and he said that he will open the pub at 11:00 AM, with it being a 12 noon kick off. They normally open at 12. I told him what happened last season at the other pub with the "chanting" and he said not to worry, feel free to wear your Wednesday shirts, sing, chant and dance etc. The pub is very close to the Christie Hospital on Wimslow Road. For those that don't know the area the 152/3 magic bus will get you there. Full address is:- 530-532 Wilmslow Rd, Manchester, M20 4BT http://www.redlionpubmanchester.co.uk/ Let me know on here (if possible) so I have an idea of how many will be attending, don't really want the guy to open the pub an hour earlier if its just a handful of us. Would be good to get similar numbers to last year. Peace. Manc_Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchester_Owl Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 I will be at Hillsborough for the home leg, so this is just for the away game on Sunday. Hopefully will be a good turnout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davetherave Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Know the pub well .... cracking old fashioned place ... but very big. Was with my son at the Christie for 4 months last year ... saw a few Euro 2016 games there ... good range of beers ... great venue if unable to get to Huddersfield.

sammo Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Have been thinking of heading back to Sheff for the weekend to watch it but will definitely head up if I don't make it back. Be good to see something regular like this in Manc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not in Wilmslow. it's on Wilmslow Road in Withington, which is a continuation of Oxford Road. Popular area close to the city centre on a popular bus route 152 Magic/First/stage coach.

SalfordOwl Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 decent turn out of Manchester Owls for the Brighton away leg last year in the Railway, but the annoying hipster barmaid threw a wobbly when we made any noise. Red Lion is a good shout, let's get a few of us in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
