Highbury

Got my ticket today for the Carling Cup match.

Just wondering if lager is on sale in the ground (and how much, dread to think

) and what are decent pubs near the ground and are away fans allowed in.

Cant wait to go as there is no chance of me getting a ticket for the last home match at Highbury against Wigan. a lot of fans are going to sell there ticket to londoners for mega money.

No food, drink or talking in the library.

You will be allowed in most of the pubs, it's only certain games away fans aren't allow in. Personally I go down Blackstock Road.

Beer on sale in the ground, It is Bud though, not in a bottle, by the pint on tap. About £3 I think.

The away catering facilities aren't too great tbh. Was at Highbury ealrier this season. Went to get something to eat towards the end of half time. They had ran out of everything but black coffee. That means no hotdogs, no burgers, no chips, no lager, no bovril and NO PIES

All the boozers around the ground will be ok for away fans, especially the Twelve Pins at Finsbury Park, a 10 minute walk to the ground.

There will be lager available in the ground, although it's pricey and not too clever.

Roll on the new stadium, with it's far superior facilities.

Big Kev (or any other gooner for that matter),

Got a ticket for North Bank Upper, I'm somewhere in Block 11, any idea if that's central?? Can't find a flaming guide and it's not even written on the back of the flaming ticket!!! Alternatively can you point to a good stadium plan?

As for Pubs I've been told the Gun is good and is prolly where i'll be drinking
