London drinkies? (Tue 6th March - CL 2nd leg vs Porto)

[manwithnoname]

Hahaha I forgot.

*pats spare room futon*

It's oh so comfy, Andrew. Soooooo comfy.

 

[jon545660]

Is there a preferred part of London for people? I'll happily look into best venues - and ideally one we can book a table at if it isn't Famous Three Kings..

Anywhere that's near a tube station works for me.

 

[Brizzle]

Potential venue - The Clapham North. Decent pub that has a bunch of TVs for watching the footy on.

 

[Oncy]

Uuuuugh SW London......

Ok.

 

[Brizzle]

The Roxy in London Bridge/ Borough could be fun. Huge screen - bit of a cinema lay out but good atmosphere?

Central is probably easiest for all. So options are probably:

The Roxy (london bridge)
Famous Three Kings (west ken)
Belushis (london bridge) - have heard it is good in there for footy

Guys, can't we reorganise for a game that has more riding on it? QFs has a nice ring to it.

That would make a lot more sense. That first leg has kinda scuppered the idea.

I won't make it for QFs as only in London for 6th March, but that's cool. I'll do another one sometime.

 

[manwithnoname]

London Bridge sounds great!

 

[Brizzle]

We could always do both? If Jon numbers is in town i'm happy to meet up. Also means we are highly unlikely to all leave bitter that we have been knocked out.

London Bridge is the one.

 

[Oncy]

We could agree to watch all our Champions league knock out away games there, we would get to meet once every 7 or 8 years.

 

[manwithnoname]

London Bridge is the one.

It's central, well-connected logistically by tube/ train and taxi, has lots of venues, isn't too busy.....very sensible and fair choice.

 

[Oncy]

Indeed. And there's some great street food there.

 

[Brizzle]

Last time i was in London Bridge I was being evacuated from the tube station and just as I was approaching the Tooley St exit i got a BBC News notification saying "terrorist incident taking place at London Bridge"

Luckily i'd been to the driving range in Greenwich and was armed with a Driver & 7 Iron so felt relatively comfortable once I heard that the assailants were merely knived.

Anyway - sounds like we are set on London Bridge for 6th March.

Belushi’s is nice but when I last went there like a year ago it was more of a wine bar than a proper pub with atmosphere?

Yeah - that is my perception of Belushis but I was suggested it was good for footy by a mate.

You around on the 6th Ijg?

I’ve moved out of London now mate but I think I might actually be working there around then so will definitely come along if I am. I can let you know for sure when I know mate.

[Piedro]

I’d come if I could, but I don’t want to.

Cheeky cunt! Nah, I’m snowed under with work atm, but if I can tie in a London trip with that date I’m there for sure! Are you going?

 

[Oncy]

Yes bro I'll be there.

 

[Oncy]

London Bridge 7pm
I'll be wearing a full kit including shinnies

It's not a full kit if no shinnies man.... And as is it Europe you should chose that yellow armband.

 

[Oncy]

Me
Bristow
Red Astaire

Anyone else?

@jon545660
@Spionkop69
@Woland

Potentially @doctor_mac but the game isn't important enough (and tbf he would have quite the commute..)

@manwithnoname will be watching us congregate from his office in London Bridge by the sounds of it.

What about:

@ibromurph
@Mystic
@Richey
@peterhague

?

 

[Ijg]

Yes bro I'll be there.

I’ll see what I can do, been years since I’ve seen you lot!

 

[Brizzle]

I've booked a table at Belushi's London Bridge.

Cool! Is that where we went when Jon numbers got his phone calls ignored? 🙂

I can't remember where we were for that one. I think it was a bit more niche. Wasn't there a lady in a red dress we all fell in love with too and thus missed half the game?!

Oh yeah! 'The Lady In Red' She was yummy!
