Yossarian, welcome.  Not a Catch22 for you going to the game then? Just a mission.


Thanks and yes Catch 22 hopefully wont come into play!!   Just a quick day/night mission indeed.  I have a feeling the afternoon in the pub pre-game might be the most arduous part of the day.  

Tips for anyone who really does want a decent start to the day; get your stomach lined with top quality food around Borough Market at London Bridge and really good pubs (Market Porter for example) - then a quick train to Norwood Junction after that.

I dont see Town these days as much as I'd like to, but the away days have taken on a rather mythical status these days....

Borough Market is superb for all the foods of the World, fantastic food to eat while you walk around, next to London Bridge tube station.
For a few good ales go to Baker Street tube station, as you depart you will see it next to the exit, 'The Metropolitan Bar' it's a great Wetherspoons.
If you have your wife with you send her to Sloane Square tube station, Kings Road & Fulham, but don't let her have your debit/credit card.  UTM

Yes your right about that dapperz fun pub, however with kick off being 5.30pm some people will stay overnight either Friday or Saturday so its a good pub if they do, also my thoughts were if you get into London midday'ish, rather than go straight into the Palace location you get a taste of the London scene with plenty of time to spare & its good beer at sensible prices as i'm sure you already know.

With all due respect that pub is a pretty bog  standard spoons with the normal long walk up the stairs to the toilet and the customary sticky carpets. Cheapish for central London yes but usually filled with tourists or passing travellers and if I’m honest ( I was there about a month back ) the food is poor quality even for wethers

That's very specialist knowledge of south London suburbs Abdul.

I once went to look at a flat in Anerley (1987ish). Felt like the middle of nowhere.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
