also stuff on here Where To Drink? Simon Phillips informs me that 'The Antigallican, a big pub near Charlton station, seems to be the favourite haunt of away supporters'. However, it can get very busy and this is not helped by the local Police not allowing fans to drink outside. It is a rather basic pub but has real ale available (albeit a lone handpump) and also offers a selection of filled rolls and pork pies. Whilst Colin Gilham recommends the 'Rose of Denmark' on Woolwich Road. The pub not only allows in away supporters but absolutely welcomes them. They have a photo display on the wall of fans from visiting clubs that have frequented the pub this season and it also has SKY television'. Please note that this is a home supporters only pub after the game. To find these pubs come out of Charlton station and turn left into Charlton Church Lane and the Antigallican pub is down on the right hand corner. If you continue down to the t-junction with the Woolwich Road and turn left you will reach the Rose of Denmark further down on the left. There is also the Charlton Liberal Club, to which away fans are welcome on payment of an entry fee of £1. This is more spacious, less busy, has a large screen television and families are welcome. The club can be found by turning right out of Charlton station and walking 300 yards up the hill on the left hand side of the road, past the row of shops. The club is a five minute walk from the away end, but like the Rose Of Denmark, it becomes a home supporters only venue after the game. Alternatively alcohol is available in the away end before kick off, but strangely not at half time. www.footballgroundguide.co.uk/ |

i was reading the 'home fans only' book this morning which is an away fans guide to pubs etc, and it reads a bit different from the guide posted above.
One extract from the Antigallican guide is that the management get upset if the away fans DON'T sing and make a noise, also it says a 10 minute stroll from the rose of denmark and a quick sprint from the Antigallican.
probably start off in the rose, then head up to the Antigallican
i think we need to make a decision where we are all going to meet by monday and post on here which is favourite.

Antigallican is right near the station, right on the junction of the woolwich rd and the link road round from the Millenium Tit

Banbury, if The Antigallican is nearer the station and ground and happy to have us then that's good enough for me, mate...
I'll look out for your final verdict before setting off on Tuesday
By the way, Charlton; "We are Stoke and we are here, shag your women and drink your beer..."
Go on Stoke ;D

Antigallican appears to mean something that is Anti-Gallic or Anti-french

On another note, what do those in the know consider the best way to get to Charlton via train from central London?
Was going to just go to London Bridge and get a service from there - think the gillingham or somewhere in kent trains go via Charlton and take around the half hour mark - does anyone know how regular these services are?
(PS I have tried tfl and it is next to useless)

I've been told Northern Line to London Bridge and then an overground to Charlton. I'm travelling from Euston.
This is from a London based mate.

Cheers GD. On close inspection of my location you'll see I shouldn't really have to ask on here, but i generally just live in a 2 mile radius of my house.
Is everyone going to the Antigallican then?

Post by banburypotter on Jan 28, 2008 17:05:27 GMT
i reckon so banksy, seems the nearest and they welcome away fans.
we are going from banbury to marylebone to london bridge to charlton.

Post by snsstokie on Jan 28, 2008 17:06:12 GMT
Yep london bridge - charlton is the best bet... There are about 6 an hour and it takes 15 minutes so very easy!

|

Post by banburypotter on Jan 28, 2008 17:09:04 GMT
in that case we may be in the pub earlier then, takes about an hour and a half to get to marylebone, not sure how long on underground to london bridge, but not long i would of* thought, plus the 15 mins to charlton. could be in the pub for 4.30ish then, an extra pints worth of time saved.
