Lived in didsbury for 25 years - are you thinking of the station or the railway opposite the metropolitan?

I may be way off ww,but i thought it was The Railway Inn?

I'd love a Dunne return.

Academy tactics will be for the burly centre half to ping it to the left winger and for him to pick out the centre forward (preferably Bermudan) from now on. Then to go to the pub.

Not meant as a criticism, it got us promoted!

Maybe - I am thinking the one opposite the midland is called the railway. Never went in it much - was a tough holts pub before west Didsbury became trendy. Remember seeing Kennedy throwing peanuts in lee peacocks mouth down the stairs in oneills in Didsbury. Couple of days before a big game. Very professional.

IIRC,him,Dunney,Tiatto and the Whitleys were quite fond of a pint or two in the Railway,Didsbury.

Don't forget Steve Howey

Is it the small shitty one opposite the met?

Used to know some real characters who drank in the station and the nelly!

Isn't The Station the tiny one? Think the last time I was in there was before we played Leicester in the FA Cup in 1994 when Kernaghan scored from near the half way line.

The Met used to be quite a tasty pub in the early 90's. The Nelson was a big blue pub around that time. Used to be owned by a boorish Irish guy who also had a boozer just off Mauldeth Road in Ladybarn, the name of which escapes me. He was a really terrible drunk.
