The missus has twisted my arm and forced me to give up my annual autumn trip to Manchester in favour of a weekend together in London. However, I'm thinking about ditching her and the credit card on Oxford/Carnaby street (risky strategy) for a few hours on Saturday to watch the game in a pub. Anyone watching the game centralish in London and fancy to meet up for a pint?
Any pub recommendations? I've heard that City Pride in Farringdon is a good shout. Is that so?

Wouldn't you rather watch City/Wolves instead ?

To each their own I suppose.

Same same but different. I can't understand a word either club's fans are saying.

nooly - very few pubs (that you'd want to go in) in central london will show 3pm games...

Cheers mate. Too late know, though ;-)

Yeah, I did notice that hardly any pubs in the city centre showed the 3pm games. Farringdon was a bit too much trouble getting to, with bad service on the Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & Central line this weekend. Ended up in some shit hole on Haymarket close to Trafalgar Square. Horrible, horrible "pub", but at least I got to see the game.

Oh I know it. Over £4 a pint aint it! joke.

Yeah, 4 quid a pint and no ale. No atmosphere either. Felt like I was in a cafeteria.

What about the Famous Three Kings in Kensington?
About 15 screens, almost every match shown in Europe is on....

even watched Werder playing one time when it was Super sunday (yes, the real one)..
