Without skipping Crewe...Who's going blackpool, Easter Friday?

Don't want to jinx it but the weather nerds are expecting it to be a scorcher!

Let's get every man and his dog over to Blackpool and make it almost like a home game!
 
Why couldn't it have been on the Saturday :( at a blooming wedding in Scotland on good Friday :( so not be there but my son will be :)

this man and his dog will be there but don,t put your overcoats away yet. blackpool and bank holidays equal high winds and rain.
 
Take it the supporters club coach will drop off at the ground.
Are there any away-fan friendly pubs in the vicinity?
Or do we hit the golden mile?????
Hourly express trains (53 mins) to Blackpool North from Accy for speed merchants.
 
For those who prefer rail to road, Blackpool South Station is much closer to the ground.
Although this means using the Colne-Blackpool South 'boneshaker', which will be packed with families visiting the pleasure beach, being a bank holiday.
There's also a Wetherspoons pub - The Auctioneer; under 5 minutes walk from the south station.
The map on the website (previous post) shows locations of all hostelries near the ground.

Making a day of it and Blackpool in the same sentence? Call me a complete snob but It's really not the place it was in the 1940s you know.

Altogether now...."with me little stick of Blackpool rock, along the promenade I stroll. It may be sticky but I never complain, it's nice to have a nibble at it now and again"

True enough! Standards have certainly slipped.
You used to be able't catch train, spend all day on't pleasure beach, have a slap up meal in Harry Ramsdens & watch George Formby at t'Grand, all for 1s.6d.
Eeeeh eck! Them were't days.
But listen up Milord! If tha catches first boneshaker o'day from Colne on Good Friday, tha'll think it were still 1940!!!!
