Normal pub where you don't have to book, to watch the Manchester derby Saturday 5.30.
Thanks.

    The Alwyne Castle, less than a 5 min walk from the station, is really nice.

    Is that the pub they named after you?

    I looked at both those pubs websites yesterday & they both had book a table option.
    This was why I asked the question, because I wondered if they would be all poncy and full of hipsters knitting yoghurt.
    Planning on watching the Manchester derby then off to Alexandra Palace to see Idles.

    The famous cock always has sky sports on on a Saturday. Then head to Le mercury for dinner - one of my fave London restaurants just up the road.

    Why not drink in Finsbury Park then get a train from there?

    Good call. Should I start a new thread :smile: or do you have a better suggestion for Finsbury Park ?

    Opposite is The Blackstock Arms, although I am certain they do not show the football.

    The Twelve Pins is 2 minutes walk from the tube station.
