    There might be something in that. Our coach seemed to be led by a police van on a very circuitous route through the centre of Blackpool, along the sea front and then right passed the Blackpool pub inland to the ground. Three sides of a square. No need to go passed that pub at all.
    Ironic that. We got there early parked up and no sight of a Blackpool fan or policeman.

    Strolled down to the pub and had a very enjoyable couple of hours without bothering anyone

      Down by the Armfield club. Handbags by the sound of it.

        I just got back now. Stayed overnight last night by Bolton's ground. A combination of busses, taxi's and trains got us home today.

        Spent the evening after the game at Pleasure Beach before the train to Horwich. Barely saw a Blackpool fan at all after we crossed Bloomfield Rd and headed south on the street opposite the ground. Walked down by Blackpool South station and there was as many City fans looking to make their way home as Blackpool.

        I can see how it would get congested outside Armfield's club as loads of home fans were in that area as City fans were allowed out at the same time, although most turned left to head for the busses thus missing Armfield's and the majority of home fans.
