SourceGood to know

Matchday note
Independent Irish pub established 1919 — Arsenal-supporter venue per FANZO listing, but the pub's own homepage does not market itself as Arsenal-specific. 4 screens (showing 2 different games simultaneously), garden, dog-friendly. Replaces the retired Lord Palmerston (Farang restaurant since 2017) Blackstock-Road slot in our seed.
