Slightly off topic what’s the Britons protection pub like for blues or just in general to have a pint in.

Brilliant pub, especially if you like real ale or whiskey. In November check out the back rooms with real fires.
As others have mentioned, there's loads of decent pubs in that area.
Added to what others have mentioned:
The Gasworks: a modern brew pub in the "Home" complex.
Society: A street food hall also containing a bar selling Vocation brewery beers.
Cask: A shop conversion pub on Liverpool Road selling real ale and keg and bottled continental beers. They allow you to bring in takeaways from the adjacent chippy too!

Excellent. Smallish Beer garden for summer, cosy fires for winter

Also the Peveril nearby. Rain Bar decent too. Then the Lass O'Gowrie is few minutes away on Charles St. Handy if walking to or from stadium from that hotel.

City Road Inn, the Deansgate and Atlas are all good too
