Just a suggestion, having lived in the Leyton area for the previous year i would like to propose we all visit the Birbeck as a pub to visit before the game. It is spacious and reasonably priced making it ideal for the visit. Best of all it is only a ten minute walk from the station.

...Almost forgot.

Sorry for the double post, i left it too late to edit the previous one.

To all those travelling up it is quicker to get too Leyton from paddington from Lancaster Gate, this station is only ten minutes walk from Paddington.

That is of course pending any disruptions on the lines through planned engineering work.

Fortunately the lines from Paddington (Bakerloo and Central) have no planned engineering work.

The Birkbeck Tavern (assume this is the one you mean) appears to be the Pub of choice for the Exiles - quite an emotional "return" as it was apparently in this Pub that the Exiles were formed.

Dammit!

This was supposed to be an easy 12-minute trip for me on the Overground (Harringay Green Lanes to Leyton Midland Road), but the line is closed every Saturday in September for "planned engineering works". And don't get me started on "rail replacement bus services"! :mad:

Still going, though! Clap!

BOS, looking at East London bus routes...

Will that be the first weekend since about 2005?

Great news for me in any case!
