[Albion] Match day plans for tonight.

[Insel affe]

Daughter has a game for Brighton girls in bloody Dartford at 10am Saturday, so no beer or not much for me tonight.
might actually make a change from watching the match through one squinted eye, and constantly wanting a piss.

I will have a large whisky on the rocks about 5:30
I am walking to the park & ride at the racecourse around 6pm.
beer outside the ground if they are open, with a couple of friends, then to my seat to take the atmosphere about 7:30.
Home, small whisky, Sandwich, possibly another small whisky & Bed.

I do hope your abusing the park and ride service at the racecourse, by walking and ride....

Well if you call staggering about walking after all that

What is your local ?
I am on Hartington Road, so I walk up to the "park & ride"

Not my local but a mates, The Hannover on Queens Park Road. We only use the P&R after games. We get to the match on the 23 bus, which, incidentally, goes down Elm Grove. Could be useful to you?

I don't know the guy but lets gift him a "golden ticket"

I think this evening should be a waiver night, I mean 2 weeks is pretty good.

I'll just have one.

bottle

of wine.


a jeroboam

 

[WATFORD zero]

About 5, open a spicy Malbec and cook myself dinner (Just bought a nice Haggis, and will do neeps and tatties)
About 6.30 front door will go, down what's left in my glass and jacket/shoes on
Wander up to Dyke roundabout P&R and jump on bus
Onto concourse and pint of Harvey's
Up steps, greet NSCer who sits a few rows down, and into seat
90 minutes of stress, nervousness and hopefully elation
Onto concourse, pint of Harvey's (maybe more depending on result)
P&R back to Dyke, wander down hill
Get in and finish what's left of Malbec/Open another bottle/Glass or two of Remy, depending on result

Sorry, MASSIVE change of plan, Mrs Wz has just phoned from Waitrose. It will be Ox cheeks with red wine jus.

Guess the Haggis will have to wait until tomorrow

The Hannover on Queens Park Road.

Such an odd pub, the food is hit and miss, the staff are ok, it just never feels right, if you know what I mean, sometimes full of Hanover parents with little Tyler and Star running around, or the odd group of students, stuck for where to go, a few locals that (forgive me) are hard work and very cliquey. No music, it is actually dire, as pubs go in Brighton.

That reminds me, don't make the same mistake as me.....

 

[jcdenton08]

Fifteen pints, victimise a Palace fan smaller than me, sing "God Save the Queen" then pass out into my kebab. Just a regular Friday night.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Catch the Seagull bus at 6.15 . Get to Amex at 7.00 ish . Two pints of Harveys ,one in each hand, pee at 7.50 then out there. Pee at half time then out there. After game another pee then back on the bus. If we win shouting out loud segulls on entering the house in a great mood , watch match of the day several times. wake up watch the highlights several times. Read anything available all week . If we lose I am miserable all week until 48 hours before the next game. It all starts again.

If you switch on your t.v. expecting to watch Match Of the Day when you get home, you will have a 24 hour wait, it's still Friday!

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Heading out shortly, should get a solid 3hrs drinking in before KO

Working tonight, but I’ll have the commentary on.

 

[portlock seagull]

Local pub followed by fish and chip dinner in front of the tv. I’m fully onboard with the modern football experience.

Don’t forget to be on your phone all the way through as well, cashing in/out, texting your mates, uploading your video diary and most of all…taking selfies. Enjoy!

 

[lawros left foot]

Bus to game. Straight to seat. Wear mask throughout. Leave game early - maybe absurdly early. Going on holiday in 2 weeks so got no intention of catching covid on a train rammed with mask-dodgers. Would far rather watch an hour of live football than no live football at all. Will almost certainly do the same on Tuesday also

At what point do you start calling for Potters sacking?

I'm interested to know how you will cook your Ox cheek in the time available... pressure cooker?

I do love using ox cheek for a hearty beef stew (and dumplings), but would always cook them for 3 hours minimum

No opportunity for homecooked fare tonight for me sadly - it'll be a Charlie Bigham lasagne and a bottle of red wine on the sofa, watching through my fingers!

 

[Easy 10]

I'm signing off very shortly from my home desktop. Planning on getting a 700 along the coast, then getting a paper and mincing along to The Sussex for a few settlers and some scoff. Then a 25 from the Steine in good time before things get silly, to arrive for a couple in DICKS with some chums.

That should do it.

 

[ManOnTheRun]

Was planning to go to The Swan around 6pm but someone on Twitter just said it was closed on police advice. Just tried to call and there’s no answer.

Has anyone got any insight?

Long and slow . . . nothing beats it.

Not normally a fan of ready meals, but more important things on my mind tonight
