I think everyone's getting a wee bit carried away. I still think that 88's a decent haul, and you may still get one. Seriously man, we only take 800 or so to most of our away games, normally the same people week in week out, so there cannot be thousand's with loads more points than you. I attend when I can, and never ever did I envisage that I would ever need my loyalty points again after season 05-06, how wrong was I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoddyhmfc Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 anywhere in arsenal, you get a free pint from every1 if we win aswell What Davy said, Finsbury Park is the heart of Arsenal country and my local(s) have already said they will welcome all Jambo's and give us free drink if we beat them on the night. One pub is willing to let us have the whole place and it holds roughly 300 plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearts Heritage Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 The best pubs to be in if you're going to the game are around Liverpool Street. The Sports Cafe is a very expensive, beer is rubbish and they start playing music straight after the game is finished. Though I'd imagine our game will be the 'main' one shown there. I'll post up details of various options later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll post details of how to get there nearer the time., It's also only 10 mins on the tube to WHL so a good starting point for people lucky enough to be going to the match.

Francis Albert Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 The Twelve Pins at Finsbury Park would be a good bet. Only one tube stop from Seven Sisters, the nearest to WHL, but deep in Arsenal teritory. At least 3 screens scattered round a large bar. A warm welcome from the locals assured.

You another Finsbury local mate? Pm me to hook up for a pint if you are. The pub I'm on about is The Worlds End 2 mins up the road from The Twelve Pins both will be more than welcoming to Jambo's. Plus if its decent sunny day they Finsbury park is good for outdoor drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cumbernauldjambo83 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 The 'Ally Pally' or The Bricklayers, cheapest at 3sleeves a jar!! 'The Volunteer' sports a massive st goerge's cross flag on the roof, surrounded by mini version bunting, perhaps best for us half-cut 'jocks' eh!

I get to a few Arsenal games and tend to drink in the Twelve Pins because it's near to Finsbury Park Tube. I also watched the away Dynamo Zagreb game there but was told that there are cheaper/better options in the area. My point realy was that I think these are much better bets for atmosphere If you can get at least a few dozen Hearts fans together) than central London places.

Yeah that was my thinking too if we all hit one local area then it will be a much better atmosphere in the pub, Plus the Arsenal fans will welcome us with open arms cos were playing the yids.

Yes, it's a bit like the difference between watching a game in a George Street or Gorgie bar, only more so given the size of London. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that everyone who wants one, will get a ticket, even those with next to sod all loyalty points. There may be a lot of noise about a huge travelling support in the thousands, but the reality will be the 2400 we have is plenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deodato Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I'll answer that one. The Lord Palmerston - otherwise known as "The Che", 10 Annette Road, Holloway, London, N7 6ET Right next to the Emirates, basically. It's run by a Columbian who played the pan pipes on the mound for years, now runs a boozer which sells reasonably prices good lager (as opposed to overpriced shyete lager) and employs only stunning Latina models who wear next to feck all, and is surprisingly popular with Arsenal fans. I wonder why? You will be in good company there, the Columbian gaffer has the very Latin name "William" and you can regroup with Jambo's after the game too.
