Not a brilliant pub, obviously, with no ale and not great food, but was good for the Fulham game today. A decent number of Charlton in and they had it on the big screen plus two others.
Was pleased when some Spurs were complaining about having to watch their game on the smaller screens at the back of the pub. "Why's that then?" They asked. "Just because Charlton are down the road?"
"Well, yes," said the barmaid. "And you're only playing Brighton."
She could have added - you're in South London, it's a derby and you're about to get spanked, but I thought she handled it well.

Can you imagine going into a pub in, say, Enfield and asking them to put the Charlton game on the big screen?8 -
I always liked that pub.
Staff make you feel very safe whenever I went in there on my tod (used to go in there if I was early for my barnet culling).
And always an old Irish Geezer to share a tale over a pint of the black stuff.5 -

The f****** landlord said "that's nice for you" when I asked if they were able to show our game.

Oh yeah, after a comment like that I would have not watched the game in there and gave him my money for a pint.Big_Bad_World said:Sounds like right hoot.

Ahem ... I was an underage drinker in the mid-70’s and was a frequent visitor (4 nights a week) until Olive and Charlie retired in 1988. It was not long after that it became O’Neills. You must’ve gone in on a night me and my mates, the two football teams, Squeeze, Jools Holland and various others weren’t in thereCovered End said:

”Has Leaburn scored yet?”10 -
I watched the second half in ONeills on Wardour Street. And i was the only one watching, though I did have a whole telly to myself. Bit sad but best i could do on my way to meet friends for lunch.1

We were at a wedding on Friday near Marlow so did research and found a pub that advertised showing it. Turned up with awful hangovers and they said they were showing spurs and the rugby but would put on Charlton match when the rugby finished. 3 people were watching it. We said he shouldn't have advertised on the website as we'd made the journey there to watch it and paid to park etc, but he gave us a free lemonade (!!) and let us use the wifi and showed no objection to us watching on my ipad for the first half. We had a booth seat and we had the 2nd half on our own screen and confused the hell out of those watching Spurs Brighton match with our shouting.
How do pubs work with the red button and requests for matches? We were in Marlow so accept that there wouldn't be many Charlton fans around, but dont advertise it if you've not got more than 2 sky boxes.4 -
This really pisses me off, or the gem when a place is advertised as showing it, you go inside, double and triple check on all the TVs, ask at the bar and the dumbdumb has no idea how to get the advertised game or event on the boxsuzisausage said:We were at a wedding on Friday near Marlow so did research and found a pub that advertised showing it.

Summer time outside the Hare and Billet, 16 years old gawping at the crumpet, without the faintest of hopes of pulling... 1979, those were the days!5
