i'd say the putney bridge walkabout or the slug & lettuce in fulham would be your best bets in that area - been a couple of years since i was living over there though....

You might want to follow the Fulham Football team too! Beautiful ground by the Thames as well 8-)


The Saints are coming!

Mate, Fulham Slug was awesome for finals footy, all on live. But has been closed down due to licence not getting renewed. Think the Putney Walkie has also bitten it. Best to get the TNT mag and check that as Oz themed pubs will advertise in that if they have the finals on.
For the grannie, heaps of pubs sell tickets to watch it in the Fulham area.

I watched the 02 GF at the Slug in Fulham... great atmosphere, especially when the Pies went down.

Got entry, bacon & egg roll & two pints of Fosters for 15 quid! Having a Fosters at anytime is rough but at 5am it went down like a dagger.

So jealous of you! I'm endeavouring to head over around Jan-Feb, and catch a few games then!

Yeah September 25 could be very full on especially if the saints make the GF.

Early Morning watch us win it then afternoon off to the Cottage to watch the Whites give Everton a touch up :)

Just to give you an idea of what things were like in the 70's in London...we got to watch the 1975 Grand Final a week after it happened at Victoria House which was, and maybe still is, located on the corner of Australia House...

Nothing like the dulcet tones of Lou Richards and Peter Ewin echoing in London...nearly made me a bit homesick
