I have parked in Blackbird in the past. Its OK, as long as you dont block anyones drive way. However, be prepared for obnoxious individuals on your way back, after the match, over the river.
Having said that, I can recall one pub, in a housing estate near the Manor Ground, typical estate pub, rough as fcuk, **** beers, totally unwelcome, we went into "the lounge" by mistake. Only to find three people sitting there with some triangular sandwiches, and a bit of cake in front of them. Yep, it was a wedding reception,(no guests), and the best man wanted to take us all on. All five feet two of him. We smiled, and declined. I genuinely felt sorry for the bride, as she had no female friends with her.
The bar was no better, as I was immediately challenged by some scrote, as to wether or not I was selling drugs, as this was "his patch". Welcome to Poxford. What a **** hole.
Sounds like my old local, are you sure your not mistaking this incident for a Poxford at home match?
