villa4europe Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Not sure how many of them are still open around Wembley, will no doubt be having a couple in the Weatherspoons at some point, but i understand that the police close all the local ones after the game so anyone planning on having a pint to celebrate and let the traffic die down wont be able to black danny doing this again - 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Drank around Baker Street then Silverspoons/The Greyhound against Utd The Swan on the Harrow Rd bout 15/20mins walk for Chelsea (Prob the best pint of Guinness I've had in England!) Then ended up in the Green Mans beer garden. The rest was messy and sketchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 I drank around Baker Street and then on the street with cans vs utd and it was brilliant, thousands of us on the streets Chelsea was a mess, I can remember the weather spoons but not much else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Was at Wembley with Walsall on sunday and the pub we had for the Chelsea game has closed down and is boarded up. The Green Man was carnage as the choice of pubs was limited. We ended up in an Irish bar opposite the derelict pub which wasn't great and there's also a no street drinking policy in force.

Would that be a little Irish pub opposite The Greyhound called Mannions? I think the greyhound and the mitre has since closed down, Think there is a newish TGI's right next to the stadium with a large bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Globe is the pub opposite Baker St Yeah not bad in there, need to watch out though as in the Houllier season we were away at West Ham on Semi Final day and that pub ended up being for Man City fans only, not sure if they may still apply that??

bully Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I was at Wembley with Walsall on Sunday. The Greyhound has closed down and the pubs in the area are allocated to one set of fans in each one. No idea who decides which fans in which pubs or when this will be known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local pubs maybe designated as to what fans are allocated the East/West Stands, thus to minimise several thousand people crossing paths? Just a guess.
