    The site is telling me that the tickets are restricted, despite the fact that I am an active member. What can I do?!

    This hotel is round corner from MEN arena - just booked it for £29. Has parking and is handy for Deansgate pubs and the Arena.

    OR

    There's one in Ancoats, an area of town between the Arena and Piccadilly train station. Its only £19 a room No parking. Noisy / busy / semi-dodgy part of city centre.

  • We'll probably drive and go home the same night... I'd have to talk to Dave about it.

    We'll be up for drinks before hand though :mrgreen:
