Will any of the regular posters here be on the boats before the Lyon game? Despite needing a forum ID to buy boat tickets, there seem to be more people on the boats than post here.

TBH, until a bit of intensive sparring with Numbers today, I’ve tended to post only from time to time. But I do like to read it it every day, for the amusing posts from some of the regulars. I particularly enjoyed the “Lily James” exchange. 🙂

Yes I do go on them occasionally, but it depends on how I travel to the game. If I drive from Sussex, up through Blackwall and park on the Canning Town side I’m likely to have a drink somewhere on the walk in.

Definitely a better quality burger and much cheaper on the boats. I prefer a real ale to gas-pumped beer though.

Burgers on it are great. Lack of a draught ale a big no-no for me. Still the place to meet however although I'd still prefer to walk from the Black Lion. I did it on the march just before covid.

But I'll continue to slum it with pissy lager on the canal as the vibe is good.



Once the Scotch arse gets his P45.

Not before.
