We don't know yet mate, will let you know on the way down.

I've got a plan if there isn't one. Dead easy.

Leicester Square is shit, too big to congregate properly. And the Wetherspoons is horrifically over priced!

and full on poncy theatrical people, had a roam around before Arse and agree with ya mate.

Lads: Chelsea will be placing THOUSANDS of plastic flags at SB on Wed, the thread discussing it is here:

http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=218398.msg4231416

Here's something that might be worth singing:

"We make our own flags,
We make our own flags,
In Liverpool,
We make our own flags"

Hows that? You guys are the hardcore support so whatever your opinion is, it matters

causing a kick off outside the turnstiles

Don't think it's top secret, but would be surprised if it's the same as Arsenal. We're looking more in a Fulham direction, I reckon. Will let you know, anyway.

We got kicked out of Wetherspoons in Leicester square for the Arsenal game cos we were singing, so we sung louder, finished our pints and left!! shit place

Last year there were a load outside Earls Court station, a few of the regulars that I've seen before, but there were loads of police around, people then moved on to Trafalgar and places like that

Yeah in the past that pub as you come out of Earls Court on the right is good. I remember we had an early kick off once and it was closed lol but obviously in the evening it will be packed.

AggieRed · « **Reply #53 on:** April 25, 2008, 12:08:23 PM »

and there's a maccy d's and KFC around there for any food connaisseur's

Redr0bb0 · « **Reply #54 on:** April 25, 2008, 12:14:03 PM »

A few of us set off a bit early from Earls Court last year and didn't get caught up in the route march. Plan to do the same this time.

Mind you still nearly got arrested near Stamford Bridge for supping tinnies!

sounds good to me mate. but arsenal away everyone on here said it would be leicester sq? a lad on are coach said they were heading off to camden but we decided to go to leicester sq an it had some fuckin rolling stones premier on and no reds anywere. so i am a bit weary of going to any squares in london.

It's pretty far away for SB though. would involve a couple of changes on the tube as well, and the northern line is fuckin horrible.

Mart Le Taxi · « **Reply #63 on:** April 26, 2008, 03:04:46 PM »

Richmond. A dozen pubs, fewer old bill, a green for the footy and 8 stops on the same line as Earls Court.

Easier to park if you're driving as well.

There are three pubs directly on the green, on the town centre side. Sounds the best bet.

duggs74 · « **Reply #64 on:** April 26, 2008, 06:33:20 PM »

sorry mate can't go. got f***ed by the ticket office . have been offered blag tickets but seen what it was like at arsenal and i'd be a hypocrite if i do that so have a good one. if you hear any corporates' sponsors , or anyone who doesn't justify a ticket chin them for me ! TA!

Same here mate, went to Leicester Sq was quite a few reds in Yates' but that was about it, i think i might head for earls court area, but seems like most people aint bothered about a main meeting point. just see what happens i guess!

It is the best bet. Doubt many Reds will actually go though to be honest.

L10 RED · « **Reply #67 on:** April 27, 2008, 10:06:05 AM »

Either way what everyone decides to do, I think most we be at Earls Court come 6pm.

Richmond sounds good though.

I would warn anyone thinking of going and stopping for a beer round Earls Court to be away from there by 7 at the very latest. What happened last year when people tried to leave there is still the subject of at least one very heavy investigation and probably quite a few on-going complaints against police.

Check the threads after the semi last year. Its quite scary.

Skol · « **Reply #70 on:** April 27, 2008, 12:33:25 PM »

I thought last year at trafalgur Square was good. But what was with that fucking Mug exhibition? And i'm not on about the chelsea fans that turned up. I mean the actually mugs all around the column and that?

Red Man 4 Eva · « **Reply #71 on:** April 27, 2008, 05:13:58 PM »

We had a good get togther for the home game in Derby Square in the afternoon. A few flags, a good few songs and a few bevvies. There has been a lot of different suggestions for the away leg on other threads. For the Arsenal away the bizzies wouldn't let us near Traf Square. Was this just a one off or will it be different for Chelsea? Leicester Sq. was a non event for the Arsenal Away due to Jagger. We ended up at the Drayton Arms which was OK. Before the Carling Cup we went the Slug & Lettuce just outside Fulham Broadway Stn and the fella even put an old Reds game on the telly.

So the question is, where should we meet on Wednesday afternoon? An outside venue would be great for us all to get together and get in the spirit to urge our boys in the Final.

Camden i reckon, think the two changes on the tube would be funny as fuck.

Frazer Gerrard · « **Reply #75 on:** April 28, 2008, 04:57:28 PM »

alright lads

never used this before just made an account so i could get sum ideas of were most of the liverpool fans are gunna base themselves during the day in london

id luv 2 no as me and my brother are getting there early and wona soak up the atmosphere lol

so i just all say trafalguar square again fuck the old bill, if theres a fair amount of people there then u cant say it wasnt good in 2005 can ya !!

let me no yer

Frazer Gerrard · « **Reply #76 on:** April 28, 2008, 05:10:22 PM »

think times running out if we dont all arrange a place then all the reds will just be scattered over london and the atmosphere will be shit, we all need to get together so we can all hav a laugh and make are way to the game on the tubes together.

tyrone · « **Reply #77 on:** April 28, 2008, 06:49:37 PM »

Think there will be a fair few around Camden mate. That's where we're gonna head I think, and prob get to Earls Court for 5ish
