Brilliant Pub for tonight.

My mate runs an away friendly pub in the centre of Doncaster.

He mentioned to me, that they are more than happy to accept BFC fans tonight.

It’s bang next to the train station and about a 15 minute walk to the ground.

It sells real ales and lagers at a reasonable price in a good location.

The pub is called The Leopard.

Been there before. Not bad ale house.

 

Worked there years ago it is right next to the station but I don't know about only 15mins to ground

 

It should be easy to spot.

 

At least one and a half miles to the ground and google maps shows between 30 and 40 minute walk, and that’s if you don’t take a wrong turn

 

Sounds awesome. Pity there's no direct flight from St Petersburg to Donny. Got some quality ales in to get me through tonight!

 

Apparently you can walk over the fields. Only going on what he told me when I was in there last week.

 

It'll probably take just as long with all of that weaving in and out of the caravans.

 

Deffo take me longer than that but a one legged donkey would beat me

 

Won't be muddy at all. Bone-dry this last week or so.

 

Ive not been in there in 10 years but last time l was in it was full of the Donny whites, l hope he's painted the ******.

 

I think it’s been renovated. It’s a pretty cool real ale place now. It’s actually owned by the council. My Mate runs all the council bars and establishments including the dome etc.

 

Have some good local bands on in there, Rosadocs who played at Oakwell are playing there tomorrow night.

 

Plenty of good cheap pubs in centre fifteens,lord nelson , gate house, angel&royal , Yorkshire grey but definitely a taxi ride away

 

Be aware though it's very close to their (the idiots who like to scuffle) pub the Paris Gate, so you might have to be on your guard. It might also be full of dead beats as the corporation taps where they usually go is currently closed and the leopard the nearest pub

A decent option would be the three horse shoes by the side of the old North bridge just as you near the town centre

 

Live in donny.

Leopard will be fine, but it’s not a fifteen minute walk to lakeside from there. The railway is another on the same street, closer to the station, will have some decent ale on. Bit rough maybe but can’t see that bothering most.

Three horse shoes? Wouldn’t go in there if I was being paid to.

If you’re in the town centre, try number fifteen on the high street, otherwise the Wetherspoons (red lion in the market, gate house priory walk) are decent bets.

The tut and shive is a decent old fashioned boozer but is even closer to paris gate than the leopard is - at least there’s the main road between Paris gate and leopard.

Yorkshire grey and the rest further up high street, and whatever is open on silver street, probably not.

There’s always the beefeater gaffe on lakeside round from the ground too.

 

I wouldnt drink in tut or paris gate... be a warm welcome

 

Haha neither would I and it's only round corner from our house but it's on route for those coming in via Sprotbrough or York road and they'll be no bother with it being away from centre

 

Railway is barnsley only. And Syps finest

 

Think he means by bus...
