Then its a 20 minute walk to the ground from the pub. Funny. Sandford Alehouse is my final stop on route to the ground! SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a few scattered about - just have to hope the midday beers don't make it too obvious! I know exactly what you mean. Can't wait for this one. I hope the away end are in good voice, Whaddon Road is like a library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The road did used to fill up with local match go-ers on a match day. I was going to go to this one and meet a few of my mates who are still in Cheltenham, likely joining the other “home end rams” but the usual post Christmas financial pinch has got me. Those who are going, Cheltenham is a great little town with plenty of options for food and drink. Sandford Ale House has already been mentioned and a few yards along from there you’ve got The Swan and The Vine (great Thai food) that used to be my regular haunts. Anyone wanting a quaint beer on the way to the ground, the Kemble Brewery down Fairview Street is a great little boozer, essentially a converted terraced house….small but mighty. These are all recommendations based on my time living in Cheltenham so not sure how welcoming they are of away fans, they’re all decent drinking pubs away from your more main stream Wetherspoons etc. I hope those that are going have fun and we pick up another win! The Kemble is a good little pub, it does crowded but away fans are welcome. Caerphilly Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpsons fish and chips is on Priors Road which is a 10-15 minute walk along Whaddon Road, it was the best chippy in Cheltenham when I lived there. There also used to be a more rough and ready chippy closer to the ground on Whaddon Road but no idea if it’s still there Edited January 10, 2023 by Caerphilly Ram Boycie and Carl Sagan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have also parked in sainsburys next door for a match. chippy has a sit down restaurant as well if you want to splash out.

Have done lots of games in the home end, only lost it twice- when Curtis equalised at Reading last season and when Sturridge scored the third at Old trafford to seal the points in the wanchope game. Always been pleased with myself that when Paulo scored that wonder goal i just said to the Man u fan next me me that it was quite a good goal. I promise that if we score a 90th minute winner on Saturday there will be at least one of us bouncing in the main stand.
