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.

      I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Rockets · Posted

      To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.

      You don’t think there are right-wing politicians fanning this with rhetoric? Really?

      No party is willing to tackle the "elephant in the room" which is the national debt. It is costing the country circa £100 Billion ANNUALLY to service that debt. That is more than the defence and education budgets. That debt burden has to be reduced which in reality means cost cuts. That means cutting back state pensions, index-linked pensions for civil servants and others such as police, NHS etc. It means cutting back on universal credit and cutting the number of people who are claiming benefits.
