Greenwich food market sounds good for lunchtime, and then I think I will hopefully be able to follow the masses of fellow greens to one of the nice boozers mentioned on the Thames/Greenwich rather than the ones near the ground.

My advice as a local is that The Rose Of Denmark is a bit of a hole :lol:
Sure you'll have a good time if there's a load of you in there though, it's close to the ground :thumbup:

Rose is a hole.
Antigallican is a hole.
Greenwich unnecessarily far away when decent pubs in Charlton, close to the ground. See you in the Swan.

Have to agree with Paul, whilst Greenwich is absolutely lovely with an abundance of fantastic pubs, it's unnecessarily far from the ground, requiring a 30 minute bus/train ride, on top of any journey to get there in the first place.
We will probably head for the Anchor & Hope on the Thames (15min walk north of The Valley), and then drop in on the Antigallican on our way to the ground to catch a bit of the atmosphere. Whilst it as a hole, I'm sure it will be absolutely rammed with Argyle.
The White Swan could also be a good shout - apparently they serve Tribute and Proper Job!

- just up Greenwich High Rd, from Greenwich rail station, but some distance from the Charlton ground.
Devon General":10b3wxbm said:There appear to be no trains running from London to Charlton via Deptford and Greenwich on Saturday. Trains are going via New Cross and Blackheath.
Anyone going to the Greenwich area for a pre match drink should use the Docklands Light Railway or local bus services.
The number 177 & 180 buses go from Greenwich to Charlton
Trains are running normally on Saturday. For some reason the trains via Greenwich are missing from National Rail Enquiries web site!
There are trains running on Saturday, There is an issue with them not currently showing on journey planners, this is being looked into.
