Those are the 2 I usually use but there is also the Magdala, The Castle and the Forest Hill Tavern (in SE22)


Spreading the net a bit wider The George Canning is making a play for sporting action with a HD screen but that might be just rugby related

I also go to the Vale for the same reasons as Lady Gooner - not bad for footy I must say! Also, in it's defence there is a new chef (again) and the food is pretty good too!


I know it's not popular to like the Vale but for footy shants and scran it is not bad!

You know it makes sense Anna!!! :)-D


I've watched one match in The Vile, and it was fine to be honest, it's just the evenings I hate it, when rumpelstiltskin tries throwing his weight around! For that reason I just don't like giving them my money.

I go to the Magdala, though their projector could do with upgrading to a brighter one or they should sort the lighting/blinds out in there.


Always a pretty good crowd in there, and we (Liverpool) always seem to do well when I watch them in there, unless we are playing Chelsea then I have to endure the walk of shame to 'Baad Lark Warnger' from the piggy eyed mockney lifetime fan since 2004 food chain bottoming knuckle scrapers.

Magdala is too far! Have they got a proper big screen or just the one at the front, I can't remember. If my missus is considerate enough not to give borth tomorrow I am gonna try and get to the boozer for Mighty Pompey Vs Inferior Scousers! Might try the Mag!

The Mag has a big screen and several stratigically placed TVs around the pub and behind the bar. It's probably the one I use most for football but it can get awful crowded in there for big games. The CPT is great if you can get a seat at the bar and watch it on the telly above the door. Other times I'll use the EDT which is also pretty good too

I used to go to the mag to watch sport but I do agree that its to busy and a little hostile at times. So now I just go to the Canning instead. Great atmosphere, New LCD TV OK! top service and a great manager........ Did I mention I work there?

However, on certain occasions I do go to the EDT. Can I just say that I admire the Bishops stance on live sport. It doesn?t appeal to me but I can see that some would be thankful for it. Well-done Scot.

Actually to be honest I think you are right - it should be a very tight game. I may even watch it myself. I am on cable and have hired Sky Sports for the next month or so as there a a few matches on Sky I want to watch (including tomorrow). I used to go to the Ivy House but tend to dip in and out of Sky now. Thats the beauty of cable - you can subscribe to sports for as long as you like (so long as the first month is a full month) so you can ditch it again after a couple of months and resubscribe a few months later.

      ED Nature Watch

      By fatherlukeduke · Posted

      Walking round Dulwich park lake yesterday with my camera, Merlin bird app running and keeping and eye out for anything interesting.  Merlin reports that it has heard a Curlew then a minute later a Ringer Plover. I think this is very unlikely (though weird that it apparently heard both waders within a minute), but I thought I'd have a good look anyway. Watching the lake I see a grey and white bird coming in across the water - too big for the Plover, but got my camera on it as it landed and started pecking round the margin.  Zoomed in, got a few shots and worked out it was a Common Sandpiper!  Not sure how it got so far from it's natural habitat, but there you go. I wonder about the Curlew and Plover, but still assume they must have been Merlin getting confused.  Keep an eye out though.

      Indoor market in East Dulwich - Would you be interested?

      By ArchieCarlos · Posted

      Please bring this to Dulwich Village - we only have cafés and chain stores and could really do with some retail dynamism ! There's so much disposable income in the area, but so few good options to spend it.
