First time down there tomorrow. On the train to Marlybone, then tubes etc.

Anyone else on trains?

Where are others gathering for a beer etc?

We're driving, which reminds me to do the congestion charge thingy. Forgot for Millwall back in September and got a hefty fine. Parking in Asda not far from the ground.

London Bridge area might be good bet, given thats where overground is from - however I know borough market is shut - thats ruined our morning plans when we arrive!!!

Yeah we're all heading to London Bridge. Didn't realise Borough Market was shut but imagine all the pubs around it are still open. Then 20 mins direct train to charlton.

Borough Market is rubbish for pubs anyway. Shipwright Arms is my pick of the pubs by London Bridge.

The King's Head was decent before the Millwall game. It's run by a Millwall fan but was full of Cov fans.

It’s nowhere near the congestion charge zone unless you choose to drive right across the centre of London for some reason.

I just went the way of the Satnav. Past Big Ben. Tomorrow there's no charge - logged onto the TfL site, just needed to pay £4 for the Blackwall Tunnel.

Brave person following Satnav religiously!
CC is not in operation tomorrow but the ULEZ charge is (if that affects you).

We always do the same loop whilst London Bridge area. Always plenty of Cov in all these pubs.

Barrowboy & Banker - Main Road outside London Bridge Station
Market Porter - Borough Market
Wheatsheaf - Borough Market
Southwark Tavern - Exit of Borough Market / Main Road
Bunch of Grapes - St Thomas Street - Then short walk into London Bridge Station again.

Well, I usually get the train for London matches, but sometimes I have to drive. Yes, found out when logging onto TfL that the CC isn’t in operation tomorrow.

I’m into St Pancreas tomorrow.

Despite spending a decent chunk of time in London and having a good knowledge of pubs, for some reason I left the planning of the pre game pubs to my Dad. He likes good beer and most importantly he’s retired so lots of time!

He’s just sent it to me, it’ll need a re-write. He’s got us doing a 40 minute walk from Woolwich to the ground. Pub selection is decent but sod that.

If London Bridge appears to be the area of choice, I’ll do the same.

Not sure you’re drinks preference but add in The Rake too - good ale bar.

Going to head there tomorrow.

Edit - alongside some of those already listed.
