Drinking Dens for Posh 20th Dec

[JOE HAWKINS]

The Webmaster has suggested The Soar point for our younger fans while the Counting House is anothe option for those arriving early.

Any other hostilerys near the stadium that you could recommend guys.

Thanks.

I suggested it may be OK for away fans but didn't say anything about it being suitable for younger fans. The Counting House might be better for kids.

Younger fans as far as I'm concerned is anything between 18 and 40:icon_wink.

With regard to Chiddies we're suggesting the Counting House.

That sounds like The Globe. It's a good boozer.

and it still has the original gas powered lighting.

I would say the counting house is ur safest bet, probably best to avoid the local hero. Soar point is ok, but its a bit of a trek and is aimed at the students - as is the Dry Dock and Polar Bear which are quite close by.

Its worth noting that you can get an overpriced and warm pint in the stadium and enjoy the sight of the original strip lighting and the surrounding beautiful breeze block features

Alcohol is not available to away fans.

Steer clear of the Hind and F bar, not that you would go into the latter anyway.

Soar point should be fine, it's a student pub with cheap beer and the occasional thing to look at

Turnstile.

Steer clear of the Hind

I thought The Hind was always allocated for away fans, with it being across the road from the station.

Turnstile.

It's got a different name these days. Not sure if it's any different inside though.

Is a "Drinking Den" a pub?

There are drinking dens and there are pubs (usually frequented by the more discerning). As i am sure you well know!

Nope, I have never heard of the expression until I read this today.

It is but I believe there was some trouble up there earlier in the season.

The Police try to get away fans travelling by train in The Hind.

The counting house is by far your best bet, no problems with away fans.

Nearly the only bet, Leicester is not the greatest place for away fans drinking.
