Anyone know if any pubs around Wembley will be showing the game Saturday? Must be atleast one that stays open?

Why on earth would you want to hang around outside Wembley if you're not going to the game?

Because I've boycotted Wembley however I'm Billy no mates on Saturday and people I do know are going to the game (or working). I don't really want to watch it on my own in a pub here.

Fair play. I understand not wanting to watch it alone, but there are surely better places to sit and watch it than one of the crap pubs in Wembley..? Don't you live in Essex as well? If it were me I couldn't be arsed travelling all that way to sit in a shit empty pub while everyone else is down the road at the game. But to each their own and all that.

Pubs round here will be packed on derby day but for some reason I don't want to go on my own. Weirdly being at Wembley wouldn't bother me as much.

You've always been an odd one riggi. I'll give you that ;)

Yeah fair enough, like I say, to each their own and all that. Just for me I couldn't think of many worse ways to watch the game than schlepping all the way out to Wembley to sit in a crap empty pub while everyone else goes next door to watch it live. It'd be like rubbing it in my own face that I didn't have a ticket for me...

If any ground could encapsulate what a match day experience shouldn't be then Wembley is the place
I've boycotted the place too, absolutely detest the place

If ever a place could turn someone into an armchair supporter then that is it

Bloody shame, love a NLD. How good would it have been tomorrow at NWHL...

There's a possibility of getting in the ground but I'm not sure I want too tbh!

Reakon I'll end up staying at home.

Depressing isnt it? Last season I saw a bloke with an Arsenal flag selling merch wandering around Wembley way. Pathetic.
