City or Rag pubs in Manchester

I cannot believe that anyone would want a return to drinking at the Claremont, Parkside, similar or old Rusholme pubs. Even Mary D's is an upgrade.

Those pubs were my happy place. Drank in the Parkside pre match from 16 till I was 30. If I got a lift after that, would go in Claremont , too many Irish rags for my liking though then walk up to the Beehive loved watching old West Indian chaps play dominoes loudly would love the Holts and Hydes. If I went on the train would have a couple on Portland St then a bus to Rusholme and a couple in the Welcome. Quik dash up Claremont Rd for a last one in the Beehive. Post match stroll down to the Whitty and a few more Marston Pedigrees before a Ruby in the Shazan and a train back to the Fylcde Coast. Don't know how anyone can compare the East Manchester beer desert in which we are located to the great old days in Moss Side.
 
Piccadilly Central used to be great on matchday. Stopped going since the most recent change in owners have tried to turn it into a vegetarian nightclub.
