Pre-Match Pints?

[Armaghtoffee]

Was there a bar on County Road called ‘The Albert’ or have I made this up? It would have been up on the right once you have reached The Oak when walking from the stadium.

There's the albany - its not on county rd though, its mixed in amongst the back streets going towards kirkdale. The only Albert i know of anywhere near is the one opposite the kop.

My memory is failing me. I must seek it out and see if it’s the same place I’m thinking of.

How come?

I quite like the Winslow myself although the Bouncer charged me £1 in before the Dinamo Bucharest game in 2005 which I still think is odd

I once paid a £1 to go upstairs which is a bit easier to get served

Are you Scouse though or where we both taken by the hand?

The bar on Goodison Road on the left, before you come to the club shop is a decent, albeit rammed, boozer. Can’t remember the name of it though.

I’m in Fan Zone these days mostly anyway, kids to be entertained and all that.

That's what a packet of crisps and a can of (insert a fizzy drink of your choice) are for. I think over time they've realised pints are part of the pre-match routine.

For me, it's either the Ship n' Mitre in town and then a dart in a taxi, the Social Club, The Royal Oak or occasionally the Harlech Castle.

The latter, while being an absolutely sparse dive, does a magnificent Guinness which I would recommend @Eggs trying if he's ever about before the game.

A home game for me is a family occasion for little Blues getting to see the Stadium and all the Toffee hype that it delivers.

I’m seeing Liverpool in new eyes, been travelling there since 2001 for games and loved the stags etc.

Now seeing your city in new eyes

Imagine charging money to get into a pub before the game. That's what has happened to bar I went to. They can **** right off.

The Abbey, Elm or Brick depending on which way we go.

 

[wiggie]

I always went to the Tramways many years ago now it's Harlech before game and Winslow and Brick afterwards

You've probly seen me in there... Wobbling around

 

[onlyme]

The Harlech, good cheap beer and despite it being rammed it doesn't take too long to get served.

£1 to get in - £2 to get out
