getting train at 3ish - planning on having a jar or two at paddington before moving on at 5ish - where is everyone heading??

I think the London lot are planning to go to the Market Porter at London Bridge, although this is yet to be confirmed

The Rose of Denmark, was meant to be ok - spoke to some charlton - 5 mins from the ground. Apparently the pub next to the ground gets packed early and it's hard to get served? Anyone know?

If not then London Bridge it is.

There's a pub that is on the corner before the ground. Can't remember what it's called but it's got a brothel upstairs apparently. Charlton fan in The Merlin on Friday recommended it.

i was in that one on the corner nearest to ground. Nice pub, got quite filled with town fans so tomorrow could be interesting. I'l be in that one

I'll go down London Bridge, then the ground about 5pm I think.

They dont seem to have a lot of drinkers at their home games. Theres only 3 pubs near the ground and last time they all seemed to have more Town fans in them than Charlton on Boxing day.

will probably end up in the Antigallican which is the one thats on the corner...didn;t notice a brothel though!

Ahhh yes that's the one.

Some are going to the Porter, most are going to the barrowboy and banker directly outside LB station.

The pub or the brothel?

Cheers. Might just have to wait and see what time I get to LB - I'll pop in to one of those if I have the time!

Which is the one we went into last time??

I think it was the Antigallican to be fair.

Or the Rose of Denmark something like that

Hello guys, Charlton fan here, if any of you are interested in drinking another pub (Im sure the Antigillican opposite the train station will be packed with your lot. Theres a very nice pub which always welcomes away fans called the Anchor and Hope, when you come up the steps from Charlton station, immediately cross the road and walk down the hill, its about half a mile down the road. If its a nice evening, which it looks like it may be, theres a beer garden out the front which overlooks the thames.

What can I say...may the best team win. I really cant call this one, and if its anything like Friday night im sure we will both be in for a nervy evening!

thanks for that landlord.

careful lads. sounds like a trap.

Haha no I actually live in Bedfordshire mate but its a decent pub!Just an idea for you lot if the Antigillican gets to packed, most of the other pubs you'll probs need to prove your a Charlton fan.

I expect its where the bears live

OK treat it as a trap if you like mate but I can assure you it aint, only trying to help you lot out. Had a good laugh with a few of your fans after the game Friday.

how do we prove that? paint our faces and act like a cunt?

Nice one

:) welcome to the tef

This thread amuses me.

Greg is definitely a landlord ;)

I can guarantee you im not a landlord haha I'll be making a similar length of journey to South London as you lot will. Its always been a good pub with a friendly atmosphere. But fair enough take it as a trap, stick to 3000 of you lot trying to get in the Antigillican!

Ha that's the one pub that Charlton fan told us not to go in on Friday. I'd steer clear.

Anyway surely if i was the landlord, I would mention that first, no?

Iffy you must be on a whind up, your not in South Bermondsey here your in Charlton mate.

most of us will be drinking around london bridge, greenwich is to scarey to walk around.

Fair enough, best of luck tonight guys!

Yes, you could have a mean time there.

very funny nev

Quite proud of that one, thanks Birdy.

I thought you could've dome better.

Enough of the Cutty Sarkasm.

awful axs

*cries*

My train goes into Waterloo so about 8 of us are going to The Duke of Wellington as its by Waterloo East.

It's a bit of a dive, though, to tell the truth.  If you're set on find a decent pub near Waterloo East (instead of London Bridge, where most are heading) you could try here:

Its alright, but mainly chose it because it should be easy for my non london based friends to find.  Come out of Waterloo, cross the road, you're there.

We will be in the Barrowboy and Banker opp London Bridge, large pub might even fit 3,000

king's arms is a great boozer.

In the anti.kevingallen quite quiet!

Go upstairs then Whits

I'm in the barrowboy. Not so busy.

Im never going there again. Fucking rip off.

had a couple in the Mad Bishop as well, 20 quid for 5 drinks, sure it didn't use to be that expensive.

You should do what Panda Paws' mate did in the Antigallican - managed to haggle for a round of drinks, worked out about 2 quid a pint. Massively impressed, I was

It's pretty much £3.50 upwards every where in the main bits, average is about £3.80 for cider, and about £6.50 for a large wine, I tend not to go out too much anymore!

Sam Smith Alpine Lager is my friend. £2.30 a pint in central London, a bit rank but after a couple I normally get used to the taste.

That sounds as if it's been brewed in someones shed.

I had that Sam Smith's lager in a pub in Central London the other day. Had to restrain my urge to vomit after each sip. Left 2/3 of it. Never seen it on sale anywhere else outside of that pub.

Shed loads of cheap beer. My work local is The Cardinal but I recommend the Yorkshire Grey.

The Alpine certainly is an acquired taste

I got a bit of a bollocking for drinking like a loony the last few nights ( it's tension dear) So i just bought a can of shandy bass up the shop, brings back memories.

In the blue tin?

Yep, with a red triangle.

Great drink in the summer....although its not the same out of a plastic bottle.

Aint won over by Sam Smith's I have to say.

Not as cheap as a Wetherspoons, and not that great a tasting beer either.

Superb behaviour! 7 pints and a coke, all passed back as soon as they wer epoured. Dopy barmaid asks how much we ordered, my mate replies with 'call it a tenner'...'make it fifteen' she replies. Job done!

Fair point but the smith's pubs are much better than any 'spoons I've been in.

We found a Sam Smith's pub in Scunthorpe a couple of years back. It was about £1.10 a pint. Didn't taste too bad.

sam smiths old brewery bitter - mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Perhaps they could use that as part of an advertising campaign:

Samdy Gray says: "Didn't taste too bad"

Works for me 8)
