i'll be in the motherland on friday night but i'm well up for some ex-pat meet ups for future games

Gentlemen (and lady I think) sounds like we've got a plan. Now just to keep this thread handy till next season when I'm sure all our points of reference will be out of date. ALTHOUGH how many of you are likely to be going to the 4N's at Wembley? Actually that proabably deserves it's own thread closer to the time.

This looks like a goer then

Hope this club is not exclusive to living 'Cockneys'. My son lives in Willesden Green, and if a weekend visit coincides with a match, it would be great to join in!

More the merrier, Wire London Branch the beginning

i feel like i'm missing something now!

geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezas

I know my pubs of London would hate to know how many I've been in but going off the beerintheevening pub map been in them all around soho/L Squire Cov garden. Some cracking pubs.

Agreed there are some great pubs around there. I always like the Nell of Old Drury.
I used to really like The Sun on Long Acre but it got a new Unionite manager who when the barman tried to put Wire - Wigan on the tele for me a couple of years back said - "we're not putting that Northern rubbish on".
It was the last time I ever went there needless to say and has now been 'renovated' and had candles on the table when I walked past the other day. A shame.

Anyway on to tonight - I'm really sorry I didn't get chance to pop into Connolly's last night but having checked the schedules apart from the 1 dayer there's no other sporting competition so I'm confident we'll get it on there. I'll try and call them today if I get chance just to confirm.

So Horatio et al - are you on for a Chiswick Wires in London opening salvo tonight?

Yes, check your pm's

I'm in Bethnal Green - Monday to Friday. I can usually get to most Friday night home games (+ Wigan away) if the train is on time though I'm no stranger to the bloke on the "late gate". For any other Friday night away games covered by Sky I'd be happy to stop over in London to watch the Wire in action.

There may be a few veterans on here from the midweek Wire/Bradford drawn game a few years ago watched at the Orange Tree in Richmond. Hulse, Varkulis.........

I might be able to come along tonight, can you pm me details?

Got hammered in the Sun a few years ago watching football.Coach and horses is one of my favs in soho good old sing song on a Wednesday night.

In Chiswick tonight Vicky, follow Chiswick Wire's link, Connellys.

How did it go chaps? Good first game to ease in on I'm sure, it could have been a tense couple of hours if we'd lost. We all up for meeting a week on Friday for our next one?
