Any decent Italian places round there btw? Pizza Hut, that sort of thing.

 

For someone who spawns from a town who thinks gormet dining is a Greggs and a pint of Broon I find this kind of hard to take.

 

The score is simple, if you want to drink before the game, go to HH, if not dont.

 

True, sadly.

 

As crap as it is, you'll struggle to get a pint elsewhere round there before noon.

 

Theres enough time between noon and kick-off to get at least 3 decent pints down you. If people are that desperate for drink, i'd recommend cans of Stella before noon.

 

Can I borrow your teleporter to get from Kings Cross to the ground?

If I'd known you were going to get this riled I'd have left this alone.

Dear me Danny, you must be losing an argument when toys come out of the pram like that.

 

The poster known as Billy Whitehurst is a known expert on hostelries in the local vicinity and checks each one for beer quality at least every fortnight.

 

Hamilton Hall is what you'd expect from a stationside 'Spoons and if you would prefer to wander a little further there are better boozers. However, if all you care about if throwing a crap lager down your neck, then fine. Obviously some of you may wish to have a slightly more adventurous awayday experience than our good friend here.

 

With it being a Sunday, the bulk of city pubs round these will be shut, however the White Hart (unlucky perhaps) is not too bad. The Shooting Star and The Magpie will do a better pint but I suspect off the top of my head that these will both be closed. Not sure about Williams, which is tucked away on Artillery Lane.

 

Chez' shout is decent, but if it's a sunny day it will be packed to the rafters and being on a street corner there isn't much space to drink outside. The Water Poet (Folgate Street) does great food but get there early, while the Commercial Tavern (Commercial St) will do for any abstract arty types. The Light Bar (top of Bishopsgate) is atmospheric, but stick to bottles if you go in there, the draught is awful.

I thought we were discussing boozers near Liverpool st? Kings cross is irrelevant to me personally.

OK I'm furious. I tell what would calm me down. Is that if someone could suggest to me a boozer that I could go to before twelve that serves beautiful cask ale, good food and a buzzing pre match atmosphere.

 

You're right though, I'm seething.

Just open a few tins of Fuller's Pride, sit in your Wembley, sorry, White Hart Lane seat and watch it on the telly/listen to the radio, like you usually do.
