If only more grounds were like this
Brilliant away day at Brentford yesterday, very good Albion support and a proper old football ground.
Myself and the other six I was with managed to have a drink in all four pubs surrounding Brentford's ground.
All good pubs with very quick service, the London Pride was pretty good too.
Did anyone else visit all four pubs?
Which pub did you think was the best?
I heard you visited all four pubs twice
We were probably already plastered by then![emoji482]
I did accidentally bump into a bloke at some point actually..It wasn't you that gave my coat half a pint near the door was it?

Yeah right next to the door, was he wearing a black coat? I can't remember if it was before or after the game mindIf it was near the side door that was me, I was trying to negotiate getting out of the door with 2 pints and someone backed into me.
Whoever it was did apologse.
It can still be done. With nobody getting killed. Some people mistakenly believe The Swan is home fans only, but that only applies nowadays to Leeds and Millwall games. Martin, the Swan's landlord, appreciates that most fans are pretty decent, and that the buzz from having a mix of fans thronging the bars only heightens the whole matchday ritual.
Roy'sI'm not arguing with the person that said that My phone was 'borrowed' in one pub when I was posting on Twitter.
An off licence in Newhaven and in Brentford also did very good business yesterday
Yes, absolutely. I spoke to Martin about this only recently and he's asking people to help spread the 'away fans welcome' word.Is this true? as I had stopped going to the swan post match as it lost a bit of atmosphere when they stopped away fans from coming in.
