Luton - 11th March 2006

[Lako42]

so any info on watering holes people. it's important.

 

[MKFox]

If you're getting the train then loads of pubs in town, near the ground there's the bedfordshire yeoman (in dallow road), which used to be a home pub (and probably still is) and a pub on Kingsway (less than 10 mins walk) that used to be called the Champions.
There was a pub called the Leicester arms just off the M1, not sure if it's still open.

 

[fitz]

i'l be trying the yeoman before the game, but only around 2ish as have some safe pints in town first - safe in the sense of more chance of being allowed in with a city shirt

 

[Lako42]

think were going to try the leicester arms on the way in to luton, but were looking for a pub with as many away fans in as possible for the atmosphere.
the yeoman sounds possible as it's mentioned on the ground guide

[Johnb_lcfc]

who are the 5% that sit down??? probably F*rest, the retared inbread gun-hugging pricks

teams with seriously appauling away supports like fulham charlton etc

 

[MKFox]

if judging by the computer of the ticket office this afternoon id say alot

got one!

 

[fitz]

got one!

well i've got 2, and there's only 1 of me....late notice for getting someone who doesnt support leicester to join me

 

[Real Sharapova]

The London Branch will be getting sozzled in The Bricklayers Arms,High Town Road. Apparently it's near to the station, but on the "wrong" side for the ground, so it doesn't get too rammed.

 

[MKFox]

Have I ever mentioned that I've scored a goal at each end of Kenilworth Road, a goal in each half...happy days...

 

[Leesoh]

Last time I went to Luton the seats seemed to be very cramped (and I wasn't such a fat bastard in those days!), it's one of those places where anyone over 5'10" will find it uncomfortable or even painful to sit down.

Even I struggled for leg room last time I went there!! And I'm not 5'10"!!

 

[Johnb_lcfc]

i hope everyone will stand up then :icon_bigg

 

[MKFox]

i hope everyone will stand up then :icon_bigg

right behind the goal...

 

[Xantha]

and I will pray that I don't get some tall b*stard in front of me or I won't see the game!

 

[Durham Fox]

You should be fine, I don't think Lazzer is going.

 

[Joe_Fox]

I hope we give Newell a hard time after the manager position fiasco.

 

[Boy Genius]

I hope we give Newell a hard time after the manager position fiasco.

its not his fault he was an unsuitable candidadte...

 

[Lako42]

we should still sing ya can stick ya mike newell up your arse. so people where are you drinking. bricklayers arms sounds a bit of a walk especially as i live next door to one. anyone going the yeoman

 

[fitz]

great its a sell out that means i'll have to be there at 2pm or so to be assured of getting a seat next to someone i know. yeoman's i think is best bet for drinking

 

[bocadillo]

I would certainly expect there to be plenty of tickets left for general sale on the Friday. I really don't see us selling all of these.

My Luton ticket arrived today, and it's unreserved seating, so presumably that means they're not expecting a sell out, it's more difficult to fill all the seats if they're unreserved.

Whoooops!!
