Destination San Spotty 19:44 - Oct 21 with 4297 views | FatCat | After thinking about it for a long time I'm finally coming up for my first visit to Spotland for the Oldham game. I've booked my ticket and got a hotel. Just got a couple of more questions I could do with help on please. When I was at the MIllwall game I got talking to a couple of blokes and they said that there was a particularly good fish & chip shop right near the ground on I believe Wilbutt's Lane? Have I got that right? Secondly, where would be a good place to go for a drink, probably after the match? As I'm driving up Saturday morning not sure I'll have time for a beer pre match but i'll see. Thanks again chaps! | | | | |

Cemetary Pub on corner of Bury Rd/Sandy Lane makes sense then, a real ale pub. | |

If there's a long queue,worry not.....the girls are brilliant dispatching grub. Let us know how you go on too. | | | |
Destination San Spotty on 00:09 - Oct 22 with 3892 views | 1mark1 | Will the Cemetery pub be open on Saturday, or will the police close it/ask for it to be closed? | |

Destination San Spotty on 07:39 - Oct 22 with 3790 views | aleanddale | Enjoy FatCat.. Yeah the Rag pudding is top notch... ( with chips peas gravy ) In the town centre it depends how old you are and what your looking for in a pub... Can't speak for the young pups who go out at midnight but current favourites are the flying horse and the Baum. Near the the ground the Cemetery is a fantastic pub and the ale always spot on. | | | |

Nobody replied to my question asking if Cemetery Pub will be open after match. If it is open go in there, then you could take a taxi for a couple of quid to somewhere like the Flying Horse in town, real ale, and fine selection of food and drink. Enjoy your day and week end. | |

The Cem is open pretty much all hours, and handy for where FatCat is staying just down the road. It's the obvious choice, both in terms of convenience and real ale. Edit: unless you mean it might be closed by the police for a while? (Missed your earlier post) [Post edited 23 Oct 2015 12:36]

Get a taxi to the Spotland Reform club(cost you £2),Dale fans only, should be pretty busy before and after, cheap beer and a good craic. Cemetery possible front door shut, pop around to the back door if so. | |

Hope you enjoyed your visit FatCat, and found our pubs hospitable too. Unfortunately, we were far from our best today and the game itself was dire. | |

Destination San Spotty on 18:52 - Oct 24 with 2793 views | FatCat | Yes it was a poor game but I'm glad I've been to Spotland. Next week Dale are playing down my neck of the woods at Southend. Might see some of you at Roots Hall. | | | |
