Farcical......potentially biggest game since we were last in SL and we're at a 10th tier union shack.....
I genuinely believe that the club...ie Hughes and Lobster...no longer gove a flying fark about anything ither than not losing the argument. Problem is, they lost it when they moved to wimbledon and they just refuse to axcept it was wrong.....

Is the area around Rosslyn Park o.k. for a night out especially real ale wise? Any local tips on places to stay that's half reasonable, remember i'm from Yorkshire please. :lol:

Am no expert mate, but in reality you are looking at heading down putney bridge area to drink but would probably say Richmond your best bet, for accom it's a lottery mate booking.com or any other search engines as good as anything

Or get the bus outside the ground to Clapham Junction.

Twickenham is also a good shout for pubs and is only about two more stops on the train.Probably cheaper rooms as well.

Wait till you see the price of pints!!:)

Leafy suburbia.....Nearest Hotel is a German owned one offering single occupancy for £90 a night, double for just over a ton...there's a "spoons" next door, so reasonably priced beers but the selection dependant on what's near its sell-by date. https://www.mkhotels.de/booking/london/en As speechless says, you could jump on the bus to Clapham where you'll get more reasonable prices for ale and shelter, although if I'm honest, the German dosshouse and spoons seems like a pretty simple idea and a room for a hundred is cheap by London Standards.
