When a pub in East London advertises on plain paper with black texta that "Spurs vs Everton @ 3pm" it probably isn't an invitation for Australian Everton fans to come watch a quiet game of football.
In fact I was the only person there without a shaved head, the only one not wearing some form of Tottenham clothing and almost certainly the only one who was worried Everton would score, not because of the points or the league or the table. I was worried that their scoring would induce some sort of celebratory noise to escape my lips to be followed by a showering of fists, boots and headbutts.
On the other hand, going to a pub later that night to discover "pop punk night" was a great thing. Samiam as we walk in, followed by Blink182 and Face to Face and a billion other nostalgic hits made for great times.
The lesson....go to all the pubs you can, sometimes you might strike gold!
Cheers
