As it so happens, I will be in London on Dec 9 and in Manchester on Dec 16. Of course, LFC is out of town both those days so I would like to watch the matches with some 'Pool fans. Can anybody suggest some pubs in both cities?
Cheers

I'd leave it to the English guys but the Fulham game is not likely to be on regular TV as it is a 3PM kickoff. As to the Charlton match, that might be on TV (it's the early kickoff) but where do you expect to find a pub full of Liverpool supporters in Manchester? Take the train to Liverpool and watch it there!

Manchester, eh? Liverpool game, eh?
I'd suggest Sam Platts.

Trust an admin to make a well thought out, constructive, and amiable post.
What a jerk.

What's jerky about that post? Other than the old bump of course. :)

Nice idea. Useful resource. If only it wasn't so insanely difficult to actually add a listing. I gave up after the third lap of the same apparently futile cycle.

Can you post to the bug thread what happened - it should be very easy...and we will fix it.

It's not really a bug, more a workflow/user journey thing, I guess. I can start a thread on the issue in the Bug area if you want though. Basically though, it went "Add listing > Login > My account [I don't want my account, I want to add a listing] > Back > Add listing > Login > My account ..."

Oh theres nothing jerky about it all, it was just a mediocre attempt at humor
"Heres an admin being a really nice guy and giving us this great information, what a terrible person."
just a little swing at the irony tree

I ended up watching the LFC/Charlton match at the Lass O'Gowrie in Manchester which I stumbled across, believe it or not. For some reason, they had a Russian feed off the satellite. Ended meeting a fellow LFC supporter "trapped" in Manchester. Real nice bloke but aren't we all?
Could not find a pub in London to watch the Fulham/LFC match. I wasn't about to try any Fulham strongholds. Got the result later on in the day from some LFC fans in the tube who were on their way home from Liverpool.

Matt, try now. Is that better?

Nope. Still a vicious circle of login - add listing - login - add listing ...

Add A Listing
Login Screen
Listing Detail Entry Screen

I get that same sequence. Then I click "Submit" and it asks me to login. When I've done so, it returns me to the empty form with which to make a listing.
