Wigan, Tranmere or Blackburn

[steele]

Hi guys.
Which ground to attend if I gonna taste some good old fashioned atmosphere? Must choose amongst Wigan, Tranmere or Blackburn. This will be a bonus after attending both Liverpool and Everton matches the same week.

Cheers!

More atmosphere on the moon than either of those 3 grounds tbh

Find out who they're all playing then decide what away end to go in!

Wigan to take in the Martinez DNA at the very least.

Why would you go to Tranmere unless it was the last safe haven in a zombie apocalypse?

Blackburn Rovers - fellow founders of the Football League and formed 3 years before Everton

I found Wigan as a city to be more friendlier towards footy fans than Blackburn,. For atmosphere it was non consistent at both grounds. Tranmere is another ground added to my groundhopping list, but not much else. Been to Rochdale a few months ago (not sure if that's an option?) and found it to be quite vocal.

None of those grounds have an atmosphere to speak of, in fact you'd be better off going to a rugby match if there's a decent 1 on at the time.

Could you get to Preston, would at least be 2/3rds full with an atmosphere.

I'd say Burnley probably have a better atmosphere than those 3 if it's deffo footy you're after, and it's a bit of a 1 team town in that you don't see shirts of other clubs there. In the area you are looking at there's also Bolton-cack, Preston, Blackpool but none of the teams are doing particularly well so unless it's a 'big' game it'll be rubbish.

When are you talking about i.e. Dates ?

Is there any easy way to get from Liverpool to Burnley by public transport?

I was half tempted to go the Tranmere Swansea game at the weekend, but didnt waste my money. Out of the three you list i would go to Blackburn, very old club, plenty of history, won the Premiership more times than Liverpool!!

Be as easy as Blackburn I'd imagine ?

Probs, Preston then Burnley by train.

I'd take my chances with the zombies.

Reidy's right mate, but it'd take about 3 hours each way
