Folks, if you are coming to Ruse on Monday for the Palace game, there may be the odd table if you arrive early enough ie by 5.30, otherwise I reckon you will be safe to get in as long as are with us no later 6pm. Cheers & lets hope that it is back in our hands by then (PRAY!!!!!!!!!!)

I'll be at the Euston Flyer tonight with the friend who introduced me to Liverpool Football club in 1988. He supports Crystal Palace now and he'll also be rooting for a Reds win.

The Rocket was crap btw, dodgy sound system and badly connected TV's, losing to Chelsea didn't fucking help neither.

Tonyh · « **Reply #1209 on:** May 5, 2014, 01:43:23 pm »

The tube strike is off!!! Lets hope the Reds really put some pressure on City tonight.

Well I'd just like to say thanks to Tony and his staff at Ruse (first time in there). I started off at Norwood Junction (on the tiny chance of getting a spare haha) in the Wetherspoons and then found out nowhere was showing the game near the ground . So , I hopped on a train to London Bridge and got in Ruse about 15 minutes before kick-off.
Superb atmosphere with loads of singing (not quite as good as The Sandon or my local in Brighton

) and it never took me longer than 2 minutes to get served even though the place was rammed. Super friendly and attentive barstaff , great music ,especially the old version of Poor Scouser Tommy and flags all over.(you could have left the old version of We're Never Gonna Stop on though

)
Place was bouncing until ...well you know when ..but YNWA was put on and never felt prouder....Credit to everyone in there last night - staff and fans alike

Cheers once again Tony

oh and top Guinness too

Comments much appreciated!! We will have the odd table and standing space for the Newcastle game for those who are in early enough.

The Ruse was great, will be back soon.

Didn't get a chance to say hi, will do next time!

Brondby v LFC, Wednesday at 5pm and Preston v LFC, Saturday at 3pm will both be shown at Ruse this week, really looking forward to seeing Can in particular.

The last pre-season friendly is Sunday 10th August at 12.15pm Liverpool v Dortmund. To celebrate the new season Ruse and LFC London are offering half priced draught beer until the kick off for the game.

Whether you are new to Ruse or a regular matchgoer come and say hello and meet lots of other LFC London people. There will be more news to come on socials, European travel and other offers from LFC London & Ruse in due course.

Don't forget it is half price beer at Ruse tomorrow until kick off, and we have the Charity Shield afterwards. Come and say hello if you are new to Ruse. 280 Borough High Street, SE1 1JS, Borough tube station, 100 yards right out of the station. www.ruse.uk.com

Hey guys, any LFC friendly bars around the Covent Garden area? Sorry if it's been mentioned earlier in the thread. Running low on battery to skim through.

There is a place on Great Queen Street at the Holborn end of Long Acre iirc, otherwise you could try Walkabout by the river at Temple which is big and busy with lots of screens but that will be full of all sorts.

For any regular Ruse go-ers we still have some table space for Sunday, let me know if you want to book a table. Will be a full house so please be in by 12.30 to be sure. Going to be a long 60 odd hours till then....

rappcats · « **Reply #1221 on:** August 15, 2014, 08:51:22 pm »

@tonyh - got space for one? First time in london/england this week and would be nice to watch the game in a friendly atmosphere

Tonyh · « **Reply #1222 on:** August 16, 2014, 08:53:31 am »

Yes mate, just arrive before 12.30 to be sure to get in, come + say hello next to the Deuchars pump!!

Tonyh · « **Reply #1223 on:** August 19, 2014, 06:57:07 pm »

Sure no problem, how many? Just be in by 7 to be safe.

Tonyh · « **Reply #1224 on:** August 19, 2014, 11:46:56 pm »

Sure, on my mobile probably why didnt notice the PM

Tonyh · « **Reply #1225 on:** August 28, 2014, 09:34:51 am »

Doing half price beer at Ruse until 12.30pm prior to the Spurs game to try and wash away a little of the Monday sadness. We still have some tables free if anyone wants to book.

Outer Mongolian Red · « **Reply #1226 on:** September 16, 2014, 06:07:32 pm »

Anyone know a good pub near Kilburn to watch the match tonight?

Tonyh · « **Reply #1227 on:** September 16, 2014, 06:19:34 pm »

Take a look on LFC London pubs guide mate, think there is a pub called called the White Bear or something similar.

red_Mark1980 · « **Reply #1228 on:** September 21, 2014, 05:28:15 pm »

Long way off admittedly,

But what are my chances of finding a pub near Euston showing the Hull game at the end of October?

Thanks guys

quinny · « **Reply #1229 on:** September 21, 2014, 05:46:54 pm »

I'm assuming Ruse will be showing the Boro game? How busy is it likely to be? Never been there before so just seeing what the deal is.

Cheers.

Hi mate, it will be busy-ish but you will be fine getting in and probably getting a seat if in by 7.15pm, cheers T.

Thanks a lot mate. About time I should go to Ruse, lived in London for over two years but never been! I thought it might be a bit quieter for a League Cup game, cheers.

Tonyh · « **Reply #1232 on:** September 30, 2014, 05:37:33 pm »

Just to let London Reds know that we still have space tomorrow. So it is a good night to do a first Champions League game at Ruse if you haven't been before.
We are also showing the West Brom game at 3pm on Saturday. www.ruse.uk.com

Hi Tony, are you likely to have other 3pm games?

As in future Liverpool games

Bit disappointed at Ruse for the West Brom game, first time going there, loads of reds in and they lost the stream about 30 mins into the game and never got it back, no one seemed to know how to work the system, would've thought they would have a satellite system to guarantee the games would be shown.

Sorry Chris mate but that is rubbish. The fact that the game was on for the first half hour would suggest my staff knew exactly what they were doing. I was running a wedding and got a text from Ruse just before half time saying the system was down. I simulatenously got a text from our satellite company saying all their sites in the UK were down for all matches due to a systems failure.

I fowarded the text to my staff at Ruse. They had tried rebooting the system + broadband etc but it was out of their control so the decision was made to put on 5 Live. The satellite company didnt sort their problems out until well after 5pm.
Even NASA crash every now + again - we do our best!

Was no offence intended in my original post, this was just how it seemed to me from the patrons side of the bar.

I will try out Ruse again in the future and I'm sure there is a cracking atmosphere for the games. Nice to see so many reds in London
