Soccer Saturday challenge 02:06 - Jan 10 with 13676 viewsThe_Romford_Blue

Anyone done it? 8 of us doing it saturday.

Meet up in Romford, train to London for the 12 o clock game then a night out wherever the first goal goes in of the 3pm games. Stipulations we’ve added:
1) No London teams. Just because it’ll be too similar to normal.
2) No Luton. Because it’s Luton.
3) FA Cup, League 1 and League 2 games only.

Personally hoping for one of Nottingham, Blackpool or Barnsley. Shame Newcastle aren’t playing as that would clearly be number 1 in my list of preferences

Poll: Would you take a draw tonight if offered right now?

Oh my word !!! Went to a football presentation night there last season for the umpteenth time

Barnsley is a continent in itself with some very diverse and interesting occupants who actually make them up the road look relatively normal

Fantastic game. Should do that for the earlier rounds, could be some very interesting places to go to

Did this a few years ago, we met up in central London at a friends flat and gathered round Soccer Saturday to see where we'd be going. First goal of the day was Lincoln. Within 5 minutes we had trains and accommodation booked and by 15h50 we were on our way to Lincoln. Which was a very good night out. Funnily enough Blackpool was top of my preferences as well.

We had similar rules, the place had to be outside the M25 and we put a cap of £125 on the return train ticket (which at the time only ruled out Newcastle and Carlisle I think). Everything else was fair game.

Carlisle would be a trek.
Norwich!
Sunderland is near enough to Newcastle Rommy!
Blackpool might be fun.

If we’re being honest, asides from Luton which we’ve ruled out completely, the worst outcome would be Barrow.

Suspect the train will be astronomical too

Was thinking this - some train tickets in 2025 would bankrupt people!

Told my daughter about this game a while back - she wants to do it when she's old enough,
(she's 15), she'll be well pleased when I tell her I know of someone doing it this weekend.

It should be a decent laugh tbf.

Anyone know the best sports bar near Euston area for the early game. Preferably one with a pool table.

O’Neills current fav albeit that’s nearer King’s Cross

I think the only pool table around there will be in Skinners (road behind O'Neils). Somerstown Coffee House (its a pub) is a short walk to Euston and quieter. Then you've got the Rocket on Euston Road.
Think there is still an irish pub by the Standard Hotel - maybe called the Dolphin or similar, only small but has a dartboard and a dodgy footie stream

The Cock Tavern - Celtic pub, cash only, proper boozer that. Will have the fire going too.

It was poetic we’d then have the George Hirst promotion party at Barnsley a few years later.

Whilst Exeter may not be prolific goalscorers, Oxford's defence is pretty leaky.

Enjoy.
