Anyone going to the game not coming from Bristol, but they are already based in London - I am in essex and travelling into Liverpool Street, don't really want to go all the way west over to Paddington. Therefore anyone meeting in other pubs areas?

I want to have a couple of jars before the game - preferably not around the ground

Cheers

To be honest lads, I'd conduct this conversation through a series of PMs and not on an open forum. Millwall are renowned for drinking in the London Bridge area both prior to and following games. And you never know who's reading this....

Last time I went, they seemed to think it was.

Only offering a bit of friendly advice to keep a fellow City fan safe from harm. Sorry you got so defensive.

I got to be honest with you, Vespa is right, you want to steer clear of anywhere near their manor. They're absolute an*mals - they have a reputation and want to keep it.

I suggest you make a bit of a day of it, and aim to drink somewhere relatively central. If you go for somewhere around Waterloo you're on the Jubilee to get down to Bermondsey.

London Bridge is 'Millwall' but is well policed enough, and has enough different pubs to mean that if you are

a - Not mouthy

b - Not stupid

and

c - Not giving it the big one in a red City shirt,

you should be fine

Our ground is the safest in the country, if you have some common sense and don't want trouble.

However, it can be the most dangerous if you are stupid and come looking for something

Friendly warning (if anyone needs it!!) , Millwall will be 'out' for this one...........

What exactly do you mean by that? Would we get away with wearing a red shirt but being quiet or not a chance in hell?

Over the last couple of years, we've been infected by wannabe young hooligans who don't 'play by the rules'. The proper mob will be looking for the other firm while these little ######s go around attacking anyone and being general scumbags on the train and at London Bridge

You should be ok, but watch out for our muggy younger element at London Bridge.

Well I'm getting the offical coach up. So would we have to go straight in the ground or would we be able to find a pub? If so, is there any pubs that genuine city fans, who don't want any trouble, to enjoy a couple of pints?

If you are on the offical coach, you are going straight in the ground.

I think they allowed coaches of a team to park up miles away (Blackheath) and have a drink but that was a one off. Once in the area of the ground, just go in the stands, the local area is not a place to wander around and certainly not a place for Bristol fans to be drinking.

They will not let the coaches anywhere near London Bridge as well...........

Waterloo will be fine. It's still within Millwall distance but there would only be trouble up there when we play Pompy.

West end, Waterloo, will all be sweet and to be fair, London Bridge should be OK as, if i said, you have a bit of common. Just watch it up LB as it sometimes can get a bit lively up there.

But, all City fans who aren't looking for trouble, AVOID Bermondsey, Peckham and Rotherhithe

Well apparantly we are being stopped at London Bridge for about half an hour by the police, then getting a police escort to the ground. The ground sells beer though doesnt it?

Yes - London Bridge is not Millwall

Don't tell them that.

For the record, Swansea were met by the police at Paddington who escorted them directly to a London Bridge pub and kept them there until escorting them on to a train to Sth Bermondsey, then the ground and the same on the way back.

There were 11 Riot Vans and the pub was cordened off by Police.

The number of fans?

About 50 :noexpression:

So I think it's fair to say the Police will be taking things seriously.

If you want a quiet drink, I'd go somewhere like Covent Garden or meet the other City fans at Paddington.

Same happened with us a few years back, put us all on a tube when we came out of the Pride, then into a pub under escort in a back street at L Bridge, it kicked off with the OB after a pie was chucked full into a coppers face, it then went mental in LB station as Millwall were in Garfunkels pub and were quite anxious to "greet" us. Then after a couple of goals in City kicked in the doors at the back of the stand in an attempt to get into the Millwall end, just an average day out South of the river.

Hoodie Top Is Knife-Proof

The ultimate fashion accessory for a street-wise teen has been revealed - a stab-proof hoodie.

The top is lined with ultra-strong Kevlar, the material used in body armour for British troops.

Bladerunner, a firm in Romford, Essex, which makes protective clothes for police forces and security guards, is selling the tops for £65.

Boss Adrian Davis claims to be in discussion with schools in east London about putting Kevlar linings into school uniforms.

"It's all in development but we're at an advanced stage," he said.

"We've sent examples of school jumpers to the manufacturers and we're waiting for the costings. I really believe it's needed," he has told The Sun.

His colleague Barry Samms says a policeman friend has come across 14 and 15-year-olds wearing stab-proof vests for protection on the streets.

Kevlar is a very light but strong synthetic fibre. It can be spun into ropes or sheets of fabric five times stronger than steel.
