MANC TWATS

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Damn right Galasso!

Had my first "football beer" in The Plimsoll with my dad and have a lot of fond memories of drinking there with him and mates!

Perfectly placed between Finsbury Park tube and Highbury it was my favourite haunt.....even preferred to The Gunners!

Yep, was my regular haunt for a long time and my favourite as well.

Off the tube, on the way to the ground - Lovely!
