Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:02:38 Anyone know which pub Swindon fans are going to, preferably with a beer garden?
Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Sussex on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:08:08 From their rivals site:
HOME FANS ONLY: THE MAGIC TOWER SIXFIELDS TAVERN THE SPORTING BAR WEST STAND CONCOURSE However, you will not be disappointed with the pubs and bars around Sixfields that WILL welcome AWAY FANS: The Megabowl Situated at the top of Sixfields, the huge white building cannot be missed! Pool tables, Bowling, the works. A good, relaxed atmosphere and a big range of drinks. TGI Fridays Being just a mere 50 metres from the ground, the theme bar sells a range of drinks and American food, and is a favourite meeting place for away fans. There are a few pubs on the way through from the Town Centre and Train Station that you could also try. * The Rover - a nice pub situated five minute walk away from Sixfields towards the Northampton Saints rugby ground. * The Foundry - near the rugby ground, the small pub is a great drinking place for the sports fan. * Thomas A. Beckett - Just a two minute walk from the train station on the way to Sixfields. Could try looking them up on www.beerintheevening.com to find out about beer gardens etc.. Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Luci on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:10:24 TGI Fridays there have an outdoors seating area/beer garden kinda thing............
Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:19:50 50 m from the ground? Got to be TGI Fridays for me
Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: STFCBird on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:39:12 Good luck, last time I went in a TGI Fridays prematch It took about 45 mins to get served. On second thoughts, yey lets go there then no one can get pissed and get thrown out of the game.
Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Luci on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:40:15 Last time for me was Swansea away and I agree Luc, service took ages. Sounds like Northampton have a similar complex to the Liberty Stadium.

Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Luci on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:45:31 That could be more to do with the welsh factor than TGIs though :soapy tit wank:
Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 12:53:16 TGI Fridays it is then Thanks Sussex!

TGI's cocktails are the best. Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: larwood on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 14:01:12 They didn't when i had one,it was green though :D

Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: Sussex on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 20:46:12 From another Northampton Town site:
Quote PUBS FOR AWAY FANS NEAR GROUND: Two on Sixfields Leisure Complex. From the away fans (South) car park you need to go up the hill round to the other end of the stadium. Both get very crowded on match days and Washington Square is a regular site of fisticuffs. You best bet for a quiet drink is on one fo the 100's of country pubs on your way into turn. Guess the best thing to do is that the first lot to turn up, see if TGI's is too busy etc.. and if so find an alternative nearby and let others know. Between us we've all got mobile numbers to get in contact with everyone. Worked at Accrington (and Rovers) last season. Designated pub didn't open until twelve (booo), so a couple of texts meant everyone found their way to one that was open and near the ground. Very nice it was too.

Title: Pub at Northampton Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Wednesday, August 8, 2007, 21:22:40 Accy was ace the england match was rather dire if I remember but I do remember the landlord saying "look at our new door mat" and kicking the guy on the floor! Am actually a bit gutted we aren't going there this season. good fans, and pub The taxi driver was a nutter though.
