Who's going?

Hoping to see another good Spurs performance and hopefully another 3 points to keep our momentum going! :beer::beer::beer:

My Dad has had some unfortunate news so I'm going instead.

Going to be a bit of a Billy No Mates getting the train up from London by myself - any good boozers near Birmingham New Street that are likely to be full of Spurs?

I used to go to this game when I lived up in the Midlands and we never ever won. I seem to remember seeing Noe Pamarot's debut up there.

It was a special day.

I'm gonna go up and sit in the home end with the Baggies fans

I'll probably be drinking down the road in Handsworth (The Farcroft pub) before kick off as I'll be staying with friends of mine who live in Birmingham.

If there is a big spurscommunity drink up on Broadstreet or in the City Centre before game I could be tempted away from enemy territory though

I'll be there, with crowdsurfing George, big Colin and spunktastic Ricky in tow from block 31, staying up there the Saturday night and are in the process of getting VIPed in a couple of clubs. Also big Mark from block 31 is attending and could be up for a meet.

Is everyone drinking in Brum beforehand or heading to West Brom and drinking there?

Read briefly there's trains from Birmingham Snow Hill that takes ten minutes or so and that there's no away pubs that close to the ground. The Vine and The Royal Oak seem to be the ones mentioned in the West Brom area.

So, where we drinking then? Brum, West Brom?

First time I'm going anywhere near the Hawthorns, so have no idea in terms of boozers or meet up spots etc..

A night out in Birmingham isn't complete without a nightout in Snobs.

It is the world's finest indie music club. It has a beer drinks machine, the cheapest drinks in the world and an awesome 60s room for when you need a rest.

This was, admittedly, 10 years ago but I'd bet my nadgers that it hasn't changed a bit.

I'll be making my 3rd appeareance at the Hawthorns in as many seasons.

One of my favourite away trips even though there aren't any pubs near the ground.
Best off drinking in Brum before and after. Either catch train from Snow Hill to The Hawthorns (5 min walk to ground) or from New Street to Smethwick (20/30 min walk).

Went there after a Smashing Pumpkins gig about 15 years ago. My mate lost his right trainer!

I'm going, along with eight mates - but my first time up there so no idea where we'll be drinking. Really looking forward to the game.

I lived in Brum for 5 years and never went there once. even though as a student there was a uni night every thursday and several people I knew loved it
