Postponed matches mean we face 2nd-placed Rammy in a midweek fixture twice in as many weeks. Our playoff hopes are going to be tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public Transport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s neither a weekend, nor a school holiday, so there’ll be no East Lancashire Railway trips to Ramsbottom this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The X41 bus (timetable here<\/a>) from Shudehill Interchange is probably the simplest trip. There are two options at 17:25 and 18:10, and takes about 45 minutes to get to the East Lancs Railway stop that is a few minutes from the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otherwise take a tram to Bury, then walk 2 minutes to Bury Interchangefor a 472 or 474 bus (timetable here<\/a>) for 20 minutes to the East Lancs Railway stop, then walk a few minutes to the ground. The 472\/474 buses alternate and leave Bury regularly between every 10 and 20 minutes in the evenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming back, you’ll need to reverse the route via Bury as the X41 doesn’t run late on Tuesdays. There’s a 472 at 21:57, otherwise the 472 and 474 run at 30 minute intervals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meeting points\/pub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Irwell Works Brewery<\/a> in Ramsbottom itself is a fan favourite, with a great range of beers and pies at the bar. It’s less than 10 minutes from the ground. The Railway<\/a> is a good option too, is much closer to the ground and also serves more substantial pub grub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are pies at the ground, though you might be better getting something to eat in Ramsbottom itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26a0\ufe0f Cash only accepted on the gate, and in the ground. Bring your coin purses!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
