hashkads id guess...

whatever helps me get tickets sooner haha

secured 2 for the boxing day match against west ham today!

what is the best watering hole near the stadium???

Well done DP!! (Err... I just realised that reads like a boast someone that has indulged in a threesome might make!! )

As for pubs, there are so many in and around the vicinity that it depends on what type of pre-match 'environment' you are looking for. I don't normally drink before a game so hopefully others will give you tips or alternatively, you could do a search on past topics as I'm sure we've had a 'Best Pub to Visit' type thread on here before.

refreshments are available in the bowl! come soak up the amazing emirates atmosphere at the very reasonable £4.90 a pint!*

*dramatisation - amazing atmosphere may not have happened

ive heard the atmosphere is hit or miss. either way i'll be lit and having a blast. the tentative plan is to get off the finsbury tube station, hit the pubs on blackstock rd. stop for a quick view of the old east stand then maybe a pint at the stadium if i havent blown through my cash although using the search on here, seems we'll have plenty of places to stop before we hit the gates

even if we are the only yank bastards singing, i missed a chance to visit highbury in '03 so im taking full advantage this go round!!!!

The Blackstock's a sh*thole, but apart from that anywhere on the Blackstock or at Finsbury Park is OK.

Hi Guys,
I travel to London in February.
So do you have Hotel tips? Yha?
We would watch Arsenal- Stoke too.
But to get tickets from Germany ist really hard

doing yha myself, cant bet the price. if you're up for a few pennies more check out homeaway.com i always like renting a place for a week over a hotel but thats just me.

So if i stay about the weekend, yha ia the best?

i would say so

So which is the best?
St.Pancras, or?
Edit: We would watch the game on saturday. Then a little sightseeing.
