The Nelson is on the opposite side of the road to the Complete Angler.

[Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0]

And opposite the railway station, in case you don''t know where The Complete Angler is either ctid lolYou gonna pop in after The Steam Packet then? As it''s kinda on the way, unless you duck down King St and use the new bridge.

[city till i die 0]

Yeah i will come in, i know where it is now, just couldn''t place it lol. I think The Steam Packet is the destination for after the game. So straight of the train into the pub.

I will be the one in the yellow and green shirt lol.

Before you firm this up as a date WITS i think you had better check out the age of the poster as i seem to recall your last flirtation on this messageboard resulted in you cosying up to a 17 year old and with you shall i be so told as to say the wrong side of forty it may lead to some raised eyebrows.

Is Steam Packet open always closed when I go past.  Is Kings on King St open I remember it as Nags Head.

Complete Angler in fact is Compleat Angler see http://web.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/10/10880/Compleat_Angler/Norwich

 

[Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0]

I''d guess that the Steam Packet is like many Norwich pubs and only has limited opening hours in the week, ie evenings, but it''s usually open when I walk dow to The Nelson on match days.Compleat Angler''s for away fans and after a group of us were refused entry some seasons ago, as home fans, I''ve never foot over the threshold since.

[/quote]Don''t know if you are getting a bit confused Pete (or if it''s me) but I thought The Nags Head was on King Street and The Steam Packet was on Crown Road and were different Pubs.

[city till i die 0]

Ive been assured its open

[Harry 0]

Some of the guys who I know from the Cricketers started to use the Steam Packet when the Cricketers closed last season, not been in there myself yet.God I miss the Cricketers.

[city till i die 0]

I have never really had a beer before or after the game until last season. I normally drive or get a lift, but now i have seen the light, but have no idea where the pubs are!! Just riverside which is shite.

Last time i was home, the Steam Packet is where i was drinking with my work mates and it seemed rather busy, and then we moved onto Castlegates and the Murderers. Other than that i have no idea, never been a fan of going out in Norwich.

The Cricketers was an excellent Pub on match days, it was run by a Season Ticket holder in Barclay, had a free BBQ out the back and had a great atmosphere. Only problem was it was never as busy away from match days and like many other Pubs this was not viable to keep open.I used to drive down from Blackpool, park up at County Hall and have a wander up the hill so free grub and a pre match beer was always welcome, only ever had one though as I used to drive back after the game.
