  1. Leyton are a funny old club. They’re my local team nowadays and tickets have always been expensive, even when they were playing in the National League. Nearest tube station is Leyton on central line. But you can also walk or get bus from Stratford or Leytonstone Best pubs near the ground are Northcote Arms or Coach & Horses. Star is okay too. Been to them all on match days though apparently they’ve been getting stricter with away fans recently. Leytonstone also has some decent pubs too
  2. Did Bridcutt lose a tooth at one point? Shame we only really turned up for the second half.
  3. No trains going out of London.
  4. Blackhorse

    Pompey

    Brilliant first half. Can only assume Verlinden was injured as he really pushed us on. Change to 3-5-2 hampered us second half but still some positives. Great support again
  5. Not made a match day squad yet I believe, including cups. Although Forest do have a massive squad. Looks like Ameobi has been getting playing time
  6. Blackhorse

    Pompey

    Anyone got a spare ticket for tomorrow?
  7. Proud as fuck of them today irrespective of the result. Glad we can still put a team out for us to support given the circumstances. If I was to pick faults I'd say we're too light out wide and the centre forward isn't strong enough to hold up the ball on his own... ...but you can't fault the effort or the support. COYWM
  8. Fernando Llorente up front in a front three with Politic and Hatem Ben Arfa. 3-1 to the whites Anyone got a clue about decent pubs in Gillingham?
  9. Absolute garbage performance... No intent to get up the pitch and attack the opposition. Defending corners with 11 men and no out ball Be interesting to see where Mount ends up. Sadly doubt he’s got a chance at Chelsea
  10. Went in the Brunswick with my old man when we played them last year and was all fine. Home fans were keen to talk to us about the game Wasnt going to go to this but QPR last weekend was brilliant and has deluded me into thinking we just might do it... 1-0 Bolton. Ameobi in the first minute followed by 90 mins of clinging on for dear life
  11. Market Porter, the George and Bunch of Grapes best choices around station. Bunch of microbreweries around Druid Street (20 mins from station) if you’re into that sort of thing. Millwall on same points as us but all their wins so far have been at home. Would be delighted with a smash and grab away win
  12. The team they’ve drawn are bankrolled by the Turkish state and have a few familiar names, including Clichy, Adebayor and Emre Belozoglu who played for Newcastle a few years back
  13. On the bench yesterday. Tactics all wrong from the start. Midfield sliced open at every opportunity and offered nothing going forward. Only positive was Robinson when he got on the ball and he’s not even our player
  14. Does it have one of those hills between the stands where you can watch it for free?
  15. The Alexandra Hotel is a nice spot too if you like your ales. They also do a good cob (aka barm)
  16. New stadium will be 62k so will add 26k to the capacity of the old White Hart Lane. Will also be used to host American Football apparently
  17. Yeah, couple of times we looked to be through on goal then passed sideways or backwards Thought Robinson put in good performance. Still needs to improve on his positioning and end product but clearly got some talent. Be interesting to see whether he makes the grade at Everton over next couple of seasons
  18. Probably a fair result, although referee lost control of the game. Lacked a bit of bite in centre midfield. I swear 80% of Brentford fans are OAPs
  19. Amoebi has another cracking performance. Some great defensive work Don’t get how they are second in the league with that Wigan reject Bogle up front
  20. Not the best game of football. All but one shot on target was a goal and lots of stray passes from Forest. Can’t see them going anywhere fast
  21. Vauxhall’s a funny place. Load of gay bars round the station but few decent pubs scattered about, including a German place called Zeitgeist which shows football
  22. Weird ground, poor performance. Big gulf in quality but they weren't all that. All Darren Pratley's fault apparently.
  23. Went when we were last in the Championship and we lost 1-0 due to Tyrone Mears giving away a cheap penalty. One decent pub in the whole town and even that's a fair walk away from the stadium
  24. Sheffield United were bottom of League One last year after four games and went on to win it with 100 points The Championship is clearly a far tougher league but it's far too early for talk of relegation
  25. Burke seems most comfortable playing in the middle of a back three like a sweeper, particularly given his pace and ball control. Think Beevers is the only left footed centre back we've got. Which means it's between Dervite and Wheater for the right-sided slot surely
