Bournemouth away pubs

[shackattack]

There's a bar across from melo melo that allows away fans in

Both those bars are shitholes.
Personally I'd walk 15 mins down from pokesdown station to Southbourne where you have the Grove and a few craft bars if that's your bag

Anyone having a few pints in the town centre before the game?

Did you decide where to head to? I’m heading down tomorrow

An extra £1 on a pint for away fans? I’d sooner go thirsty.

Yeah will be in the moon on the square (spoons) for about 1.30

I live in Bournemouth but I have been treated to a hospitality ticket for my birthday, and I will need to drive home afterwards. The only thing is I am in the south stand with home fans. If you see someone in disguise looking like Inspector Gadget, that will be me. If anyone is going that hasn’t been before, there is very limited parking nearby and most of the nearby streets get rammed hours before kick off. Fortunately stepdaughter’s family live a ten minute walk from the stadium and I can park in their drive. If you come by train, get one that stops at Pokesdown, the station is much nearer than Bournemouth Central. There is a pub near the ground on Ashely Road but it is strictly home fans only after incidents with United and other away fans causing problems in the past. Bournemouth fans are usually quite passive but passionate, I hope they give Ake a good reception, he served the club well until he moved to City. I am not a fan of Bournemouth but wish them well, they almost went out of business about 15 years ago, the guy that bailed them out died yesterday so expect a minute’s silence or applause before it starts

Mate, I think you could openly wear your colours in the home stands at Bournemouth and not feel threatened

I've read it wrong, I thought it was £1 a pint for away fans, lol

I think I’d go ticketless for that.

Staying over in the centre, no trains so no other option that driving down and overnight job. Probably staying around spoons in the centre and Uber up to the ground like last year.

Had a few good drinks after the match last time so will try and remember which path I wandered back from the ground.

There is a regular train from Bournemouth which takes less than 10 minutes to Pokesdown Station which is near the ground. When I last went there was a pub by Pokesdown which was ok with away fans. Don't know if it is still open though.

The Bell is directly opposite pokesdown station. They have a mixture of home and away fans, the only pub you won't get in is the one by the stadium. If your staying over I'd jump in a taxi to Westbourne or Southbourne unless you like hen parties or stag do's. The 2 bars in boscombe that allow away fans in are more shabby than rough. They're only about a 20 mins walk from the stadium mind.
