I’ve added the Clock Face to the list in my post. There are probably others I’ve missed n’all.
But it does show how much part of football fan culture (football ground pubs) has changed at City. Remember all those pubs in the first five years or so after the move to the CoMS, and across a season me and my group would visit most of them and you’d see different lads in the different pubs and get to know faces, you’d see them at away games and chat+sing with them in the towns and pubs or the stands at away games.
Remember the number of pubs around Maine Road. Similar pub culture there.
You see with these pubs disappearing, a correlation of many of our matchgoing fans also falling away from attending games (along with other reasons like ticket price rises). The pubs in Town are good, and there are a lot of them with a good choice around Town; but city centre pubs aren’t the same as pubs near the ground.
