[n01stokie]

I live in Crewe and no where seems to have the game on so was thinkin of heading into Alsager to watch the match, where is the best place would you say?

Thanks in advance

Mere or Arms will probably be the only places to have it on in Alsager. Would say the Mere would be best bet out of the two, thats where I'll be anyway.

Nice pint of Abbots in the Mere.

No worries mate - it's OK, not a patch on what it used to be like and if you haven't been there for a while you'll have a shock at how it's changed. Still get a fair few Stokies in for the match though.

Ahh, the old mere and the Alsager arms. Memories from my student days ;D

The old Mere was somewhere to go, the new one to leave to go somewhere else, unfortunately.

Little known fact. The guy who did the new woodwork in the Mere, Bob, is an "old" drinking and ruby fan mate of mine, who hand made the main front doors for the Duke of Westminsters' residence near Chester.

He also made the fitted bedroom furniture in my house. Just that every door's got a doorbell on them!

I lived in Barthomley for 10 years...the Mere was a regular haunt for live footie...sadly since the change of landlord and the revamp i think the place is dreadful. But it has a lot to do with the landlord and the previous one..Dave was a huge Stokie...and a top man
