    Our plan was to give it a miss, as we thought it was a tenner to get in. We didn't realise that was just for 'guaranteed entry' before 12, and was free for walk-ins after that. So we decided to head there. Have to say, it was absolutely superb. Loads of ex-reds in there. Fozzy, Adi Moses, Rob Kozluk, Darren Barnard, Neil Austin, and were genuinely pleased to chat with everyone. The togetherness between everyone for that couple of hours was just unbelievable.

    Was cracking. Great food options, easy to get served for drinks and a great atmosphere- if we go again would head here provided its allocated to us again.

    I came out absolutely buzzing. I felt like Gerard Butler in 300.

    Was great. Managed to meet up with a few long lost friends, and enjoyed the singalong.
    Whoever that fella was who got up and sang Roy Orbison is totally responsible for me singing “Penny Arcade” for the last 24 hours.

    Cider and Bud were £9 a pint, no ale.

    Despite that, we downed a few and really enjoyed the experience, including a chat with the Reds’ club chaplain who was a top bloke, despite not being able to turn water into wine/beer!

    £6.60 for Atlantic pale ale and Aspall cider. Honestly expected more. Didn't hand over an extra penny to the greedy FA in the stadium.
