The Argyle Arms vs Blackpool

[Geestar]

So as it has been mentioned before. Ross the old Railway Bell landlord has bought The Argyle Arms and this Saturday is his first home game.

Ross is keen for it to become a football pub and I think we should all get down there on Saturday for a few pre drinks. We could turn this into a new football pub! Not like there are many other decent options.

So don't try it "one week"...get there this weekend and give it a proper go with a load of fans.

How will you get to the AMEX from there ?

 

[BensGrandad]

How will you get to the AMEX from there ?

London Rd station or the 25 bus from Lewes Rd near The Level.

London Rd station or the 25 bus from Lewes Rd near The Level.

Cheers!

From the thread title I assumed this would be about how even a pub team could beat Blackpool at the moment.

Do you know how far that is ? You got to be joking , why go miles out of the way to go to a boozer unless they're prepared to put transport on to the ground

 

[Napper]

How many minutes walk from both stations ?

Getting on the train at London Road could be an issue

 

[Wilko]

Landlord would be on to a winner if he ran a free coach to the Amex from the pub.

We had this discussion on the Railway Bell thread last week ( I don't know how to put a show thread link)

Good luck to the pub and the new landlord, but you are correct it's a bit out of the way and Brighton isn't short of pubs near the station, or on the bus route in Lewes Road.

Where do you go?

Only a 5-10min stroll

 

[Hotchilidog]

The pub is only about 10minutes from either Brighton or London Road stations, it's hardly in the middle of nowhere.

According to Google maps station is 1/2 mile 10 mins I dont think The Level can be any further.

Lo

Its 0.5miles - 12mins according to the slow pace Google maps

 

[The Birdman]

London Road station means you got more time for another pint!

 

[BN9 BHA]

The pub is only about 10minutes from either Brighton or London Road stations, it's hardly in the middle of nowhere.

You are correct in saying this but do fans want a 10 minute walk or an extra pint if they are tight for time?

It would be handy if someone could put up a Google Earth map showing the pub and stations, I would if I knew how

Argyle Road, inbetween Brighton station and London Road station.

It may be in between but I'd say 5 mins flat walk to London Road & 15+ UPHILL to Brighton station....

It's uphill to London Road station too, Springfield Road.
