Rocket will be closed as they shut Holloway Rd tube....so I guess we need to find a new meeting point if nobody fancies the pins...

Cool. Should be leaving work 4ish, so will be up and about around 5.30.

Everywhere will be pretty busy though, so doesn't really matter where you pick. Pins is usually good because they serve so quickly.

What has that got to do with the price of fish* btw.
They do sometimes close The Rocket for an evening game but they close Holloway Road near kick off every game.

Every time I've gone up for an evening game the rocket is shut down. It's much easoer to walk from there to the match too...

Yeah. I don't think it's to do with the Tube but they don't tend to open for evening games. Long as it's not too cold I don't mind the Pins, it's just nicer outside than in is all. The tavern is OK inside but the service is shite.

Maybe it's just the deal RedAction have with the place. It's a student union, so maybe they cough up some dosh, for the bouncers at least, on normal home games.

Anyway. I don't mind anywhere, as long as they sell beer.

And as Falvs wants chips, we night as well go to the tavern....they have a servery there, and if it's shut, then there's that chippy on way t'ground.

The chippy next door to the Pins is pretty good and you can normally get sitting down in it and they don't mind you bringing your pint from the Pins in with you.

You'll get inside the Tavern alright, but you won't be drinking very much. Every Publican should go to the Pins to see how bar service should be done.

I haven't got a ticket but wouldn't mind watching the match at the Pins - or wherever y'all decide to meet up.

Shit!

I'm reading this book 'One blood' about gang culture (a very insightful read). Anyway, whilst reading this morning had a flashback to post match 2 nights ago...Left the pins, got to the bus stop and there was one hoodie there, nobody else. Waited about 10 minutes then as the bus pulled up, a couple who'd just arrived virtually barged Mr Hoodie teen out of the way and attempted to board the bus. I put my arm across like a psychotic traffic policeman and ushered the hoodie onto the bus saying 'excuse me but this young man was first.' I then proceeded onto the bus feeling virtuous and there was no credit on my bloody oyster card meaning a fumble of the bag for £2.30 and apologies to waiting behind me.

The moral of the story is: I don't know.

Sad but true - In London anyway - just got back from visiting my Mum in Devon last week and people do queue there. I refuse to give up the fight for manners however - was the first time I found myself fighting for the right of a hoodie is all. He was really nice about it after too. Other people were just miffed.

Sad but true - In London anyway - just got back from visiting my Mum in Devon last week and people do queue there. I refuse to give up the fight for manners however - was the first time I found myself fighting for the right of a hoodie is all. He was really nice about it after too. Other people were just miffed.

Well done Handy. Defender of Hoodies (along with David Cameron). :bow:

The couple refused to observe the waiting period.

The hoodie was too much in the wanting zone.

He lacked a little bit sharpness.

Don't forget Alex Song can also queue there.
