Not a trip you look forward too from a drinking point of view but a couple of decent places to have a pint near the station. If driving up some attractive villages close to the town.
It's off to West Yorkshire on a Friday evening, so maybe not a huge Shrimper presence, but here are some of the best places to have a beer before the game, or even after if you're staying overnight.
The season has really started now; a return to the garrison town for the first time in two decades and EEB returns with the best pubs to have a drink before the game, and maybe after!
A bumper edition as there's so much to choose from for our final away game in League One, for now, let alone the season. And if there's one thing we know what to do whatever the occasion, we know how to have a party!
As the locals themselves admit: 'It must be one of the worst grounds in the country for fans to have a drink prior to the game'. However, that never stops EEB finding a decent pint, and here's his choices.
Probably the worst decision in the world for real ale drinkers! (Well, Yorkshire anyway.) Carlsberg UK are shutting down Tetleys, a good time for a new local brewery to take its place.
The good city of Bristol is a pub heaven but here's a choice that will allow you to enjoy a pint or two and still make it to the Memorial Stadium on Saturday in time for kick-off.
At last a Saturday game in the north east, and after such a long trip you deserve a decent pint, luckily there's some good beer close to station and stadium.
An excellent choice of hostelry near to stadium and station, try and get in early if you can to enjoy a decent pint, you may be pleased you did by the end of the game.
Not the best of crawls, especially for an evening kick-off. Some will say Sainsbury's and a few take homes to watch on Sky, but for the faithful making the trip, head into the old town or a pint in the stadium.
In fact we're avoiding Millwall altogether! With such good drinking on offer around London Bridge station, the best place to grab a beer before heading off to the game Tuesday evening.
Two great pubs found in the local station, and that's not something you see in a sentence every day. A small selection of the best bars to visit on our trip to West Yorkshire.
No work, and definitely having a pint, EEB will be on the 7.30 from Paddington to get into the Devon town nice and early. Purely for research purposes of course.
It's Birkenhead of course, and for a midweek game on a Tuesday head for the pubs near the ground, however the best pint is next to Lime Street station!
There is some good drinking around the town centre, but keep an eye on the watch. Best to keep near to the ground to grab a pint and some excellent fish and chips!
One of our favourite places to watch a game and has the pubs to match. Enjoy a crawl in the town if you've got the time or head straight for the rugby club.
A fine choice of pubs close to the ground and no more than 20 minutes walk. The lads are going to need our support so let's at least get a decent pint before the game!
The only ground you can do a pub crawl just walking around it! A real ale drinkers paradise with so many pubs to choose from, mostly supplied by the Chiswick based brewery Fullers down the river.
