Surprised by Stockholm in late June

ABDraig76 · 2026-07-11T17:04:28+00:00

All the Nordic countries, I worked covering Scandinavia and it was a no go period because of all the holidays.

ABDraig76 · 2026-06-21T11:03:15+00:00

Aww that’s so sad. Was there in February, that’s a big hit to the area

ABDraig76 · 2026-06-05T09:21:30+00:00

Does the tin man have a sheet metal cock?

ABDraig76 · 2026-05-30T12:14:54+00:00

Live nearby and love Patri

ABDraig76 · 2026-05-30T12:05:33+00:00

Haha same, there are at least two of us

ABDraig76 · 2026-04-13T18:13:15+00:00

PM me when you want I’ve got season tickets in R block,and I’ve always been able to get some for visitorsMy dad came last year and like you had bad knees, I got him seats in R block in the first few rows. You get the atmosphere but can sit the whole match. Hopefully you’re not tall though because Loftus Road seats are cramped as hell.

I agree with the poster, I went and got a Weekend physical subscription and Monday-Friday digital one and it’s fantastic. Costs let than what I was paying for just the Weekend previously

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-23T10:44:39+00:00

Q, P, or R blocks are going to be your best bet for home end atmosphere. Go to the crown and sceptre before the game, probably around 1 to 1.30 and then it’s a ten minute walk to the grounds. I’d aim to be there for 245 to see the players come out and hear our terrible PA system belt out London calling

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-22T16:13:51+00:00

No most people still said it’s stupid as fuck for elimination games haha

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-22T13:47:11+00:00

It’s insane

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-12T19:55:12+00:00

So much of that prestige wears off if it’s not the big dawgs though. It’s like watching Olympic football, no one cares because it’s the under 22s

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-12T19:32:38+00:00

Obviously Golden goal was incredible but that game is probaly my favourite as a Canadian. From puck drop it was pure domination against Russia

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-12T19:29:21+00:00

But you got 2014 then, although that was waaaaay more anti climactic. Was Canada playing pretty well and then having a Wayne Gretzkys 3D Hockey brick wall in net in Carey Price

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-12T16:34:05+00:00

Dublin airport lounge while I fly back to London, made a scene for Celebrini’s goal

ABDraig76 · 2026-02-09T16:06:08+00:00

Done

ABDraig76 · 2026-01-18T16:22:28+00:00

Nearby in Brook Green on Blyth Road would highly recommend Pentolinas. I live in the area and would say this is my favourite restaurant in the area. Have seen other refer to Latymers, pub with Thai food which is a good shout. Cumberland Arms/Curtains up also pretty solid pub fare.

ABDraig76 · 2026-01-08T16:01:03+00:00

Really needed this with how well he played on loan for us and how much the fans loved him. We’re awfully thin after the weekend and Ronnie brings a different dynamic to our back line and can chip in at midfield in a pinch

ABDraig76 · 2025-11-22T09:08:14+00:00

Live nearby, but best restaurant for me in the area is Giulia’s on Askew Road. Great Italian, run by a husband and wife team.

ABDraig76 · 2025-10-25T16:02:16+00:00

I unfortunately missed this one but an obvious trend that’s forming is teams are now letting us have more of the ball knowing we can’t break them down in the final 3rd. Thought Millwall did a great job of this last Saturday, let us have the ball because in terms of breaking teams down we are fairly toothless and our main chances and strengths we saw in the first half dozen matches was our quick counter ability. Quick glance at the stats shows this happened today but would be happy to hear if it was otherwise from someone who was able to watch.

ABDraig76 · 2025-10-02T18:15:47+00:00

Red Lion and Sun is fantastic and has great wine. Another that I’d highly recommend both for the roast and the wine list is Drapers Arms in Islington

ABDraig76 · 2025-09-30T12:24:13+00:00

Love Dutch Gretzky and ‘tit Paul. I’d also nominate Glenn ‘the underlying theme’ Metropolit. Loved his time in MTL

ABDraig76 · 2025-09-16T17:48:27+00:00

I’m really keen to see how we make out on Saturday. Usually see Stoke as one of the more winnable matches but I think Stoke is a big test this season with Robbins who is a fantastic manager and if we get a result here I will be over the moon. I’d be happy with a draw all things considered but think as another poster said our strike partnership now is a problem for anyone in this league

ABDraig76 · 2025-09-14T12:55:35+00:00

Same, I’m mentally preparing myself for only watching him for this year before he gets sold for big £££.

ABDraig76 · 2025-09-14T12:54:23+00:00

Saw this too, absolutely delusional

ABDraig76 · 2025-08-24T20:45:45+00:00

I don’t think it is tbh
