[Rhodes]

Obviously not SSML related but maybe something for beer expert Sjj2112 to answer. I noticed that someone from another's Forum went to Blackburn v Bolton on Tuesday, is £3.30 the going rate for a pint of Thwaits in Blackburn as it seems awfully expensive:

 

Blackburn Rovers 1 Bolton Wanderers 2

Admission £15

Attendance 25,570

 

An eagerley anticipated game in t'Classico or as it was re-christened El Sackio with pressure on both managers, not that you'd know it from the Wanderers end with almost total support throughout for Owen Coyle, in contrast to the much publicised protests of the Blackburn fans against Steve Kean.

 

Certainly a real blood and thunder clash and certainly a good one for the neutral, but particularly nervy and gripping at the same time as a Bolton fan.

 

Pre match pints in the Fernhurst opposite the ground, £3.30 for a pint of draught Thwaites from a van in the car park, with the alternative being to pay £2 to enter the actual pub to get out of the drizzle.

 

The official car parks are £10 (!!!!!) but we managed to find a secure car park 5 minutes walk away from the ground for £3. Traffic a nightmare after the game though, with loud protests continuing outside the ground even an hour after the game while we were still trying to get away.

 

Pre match I'd predicted a 2-0 loss for Bolton amongst the doom and gloom, but the world suddenly looks a much better place! Terrific atmosphere in the Bolton end, not got much of a voice left this morning! Even the Rovers fans were very loud at times, albeit not exactly positive!
