I find myself in London for work on this date. Anyone up for a meet up / beer or 3 / taking in the match?

It's been a while for me so can't remember the best pubs to watch the game in nowadays.

Cheers.
 
Whilst I don't drink, I'm actually out of the country that week, otherwise I wouldn't mind meeting up to watch the game. Next time.
 
I might be tempted to have a day in the BL, and then an evening partaking a few libations whilst watching the Reds....
 
I'll come along. There's a decent sports bar behind Leicester Square I watched the everton game in recently.
 
I'm not leaving the pub to drive all the way to fucking Surrey just to hear you call Firmino a cunt.
 
I'll be very disappointed if I come into Lahndan for a drink and don't meet @Spionkop69

How can we have a 'knees up' as you Cockney types call it without Spion?
 
Peggy Mitchell will be serving behind the bar.

Dot Cotton will be sitting in the corner of the pub with a sherry & a small dog.

The kray twins won't be there, but there will be a picture hanging on the wall near the gents of them with their hands in a boxing pose.

Hope this helps.
 
Imagine FFF actually coming round to your house.

Staring in thinly-veiled horror at appliances that had wires showing and weren't connected up to each other, or controllable by a voice-activated device; wincing at all the iPads with shattered screens and obsolete Kindle readers, batteries dead; Televisions that had no signal or sound-boosting additions, and had been placed with nary a thought for acoustic or visual optimisation

It would be like us being transported back in time to a woad hut, with the centralised fire and chimney being the only source of light, warmth, cooking and visual entertainment (when it got dark and you could do shadow-puppetry or just burn things)
 
Ha. I'm really not that judgemental, almost everyone I know breaks most of my rules.

I do wince at the way people have the colour on their TV's though. It's so often set to something like 'dynamic' or similar, which is evident when watching the match cos the pitch looks radioactive.

I've always been like that though, when I was in my teens & widescreen TV's came out I used to constantly have to explain to people that the vertical black bars at the side of Eastenders & Corrie (soaps were very late switching aspect ratio) were meant to there & that's why everyone suddenly looked so wide, before switching the setting to show them.

Not once did any of them stick with it, all saying they preferred to see stretched wide people than the black bars.

*sigh*
 
I knew it.

I'm only judgemental about what books are on display and record collections
You'd probably think us philistines then.

Zero physical media on display, bar two piles of children's books & some books in Luke's room.

You could have a look at my ereader & music collection on kodi & judge me on that though.
 
Oh, I would.

I forgot about films. I have a bunch of Blu-Rays and DVDs under my telly that is a truly magnificent example of my astonishing cultural and artistic quality control.

Mainly Clint Eastwood, other violent films and Liverpool stuff. And some Xbox games.
