Not sure if any of you know but the Black Bull has re-opened, owned by a CFC fella who also has the 12 Bar Club In Denmark St. Havent been there myself yet though.

 
Lord Palmerston. Great day when the Leeds coaches went past and pub emptied, last day of the season, 5-0, the only thing Leeds smashed was the scoreboard

Used to get in via the beer garden after games (in days when pub didn't open until later) often had some of the team in for a beer straight after the game as well

Adelaide pub for us.

Not the biggest place and standing room only,seem to recall the Chap that

Run it back then was called wayne .

Mid 1980s onwards i guess

 
You gotta be on a guest list to get in...tried a couple of weeks ago
We need to bring back the days of good old brute force to get into wherever for a pre match beer or seven a DTF? Saying that though i watched a door staff of 4 turn away plenty of Chelsea at Le Arse lastweek, a few mentioned just " Going in anyway " but alas we are a civilised bunch these days. 

 
My mate got me on the guest list for the Man City game. Do you need to be on each time?
They seem to be outside with a clipboard with the names on every time...My mate knows the bloke who runs it (apparently),,,so I'll ask him, and let you know...it looks ok as well, plenty of room..

 
It was the Adelaide for me, was in there when Spurs attacked the Imperial.

Everyone piled out the side door, out the back of the Imperial and from the Wheatsheaf, they didn't last long but still go on about it now. Next home game John Bindon was in the Adelaide, word was he would have steamed into the y*ds if he had been there that day. Imagine a mob of Chelsea led by John Bindon!
Maybe a little off topic but found this   

 scratching around on you tube and found this documentry about life of John Bindon actor friend of Princess Margaret, Joey Pyle, Krays etc etcwell made and intresting throws a bit of light on 70,s London / showbiz /underworld
