Thought I'd leave it for Carter to arrange the Drinking Den for the Morning/Afternoon. Carlsberg is defo coming as well. Danny Dyer is thinking about it.
Not quite an OAP yet but feel like one sometimes:-) no I'm thinking of little Miss Len. She won't let me go on my own and has already asked if we are going.
The ground is walkable from the town centre, where there are a fair few pubs to be found. Paul Kelly a visiting Preston fan adds; 'we have used the 'Will Adams' in the town centre. The pub is in the good beer guide and does good cheap food. Plus a very friendly crowd of football locals happy to indulge in friendly banter - the landlord is a Gill fan too!' Robert Donaldson recommends the 'Southern Belle' opposite the railway station, which also has a cafe located next door. Robert Phipps a Gillingham supporter recommends 'The Ship' public house on the Lower Rainham Road. Away fans though should avoid 'The Cricketers' in Sturdee Avenue.
Michelle Dixon, the landlady of the 'Livingstone Arms' on Gillingham Road informs me; 'Our pub is known as an "Away Supporters" pub and is situated approximately 100 yards from the away turnstiles. The atmosphere within the pub is both warm and friendly and there is even complimentary bar food laid on for fans. Otherwise you can purchase a hot pie with your pint, or visit the local chip shop, situated across the road.' This pub which also has a beer garden, is popular with both away and home supporters and as you would expect it gets rather busy on matchdays.
Cricketers rainham? coz the gillingham one is very much a home pub, it dont matter that its a friendly either. The livingstone arms is the usual away pub but its quite small. Cricketers gillingham might be ok without colours.

'Ok lads I'm in, they think I'm one of them, on the count of 3 lets 'ave it'
Nah, blindfolded, wearing a Charlton shirt that says "We 8 Pikeys" on the back....
