Off to Amsterdam this weekend and wondered if there are any good bars to watch the Watford game, ideally with some Hammer fans

Been under serious pressure to go there ever since Southend airport started doing flights there.
Never fancied the place, though reckon I'd love it.

The missus OTB.
Both clean living other than our shared love of lager, so she doesn't want to go for anything other than why not.
It's because she constantly sees me pissing off abroad on stag do's or to see my mate in Oslo without taking her, so she wants to get a plane somewhere.

The Tara on Rokin show games, or O'Donnells on Heinekenplein - the manager is a West Ham fan.
There are no standout matches on Saturday, so no idea what will be available!

It's actually a lovely city to visit with the missus, Grumpster. Cheap and VERY easy to get to, not too expensive there. Plenty to see and look at, pleasant to wander around.

If I was going to ask anyone about Amsterdam, it would be someone called Orange Hammer.
Since my first guess at the meaning of "Orange" in your name is wrong, you are either Iain Paisley Jr, or Donald Trump...

The Van Gogh Museum is very good but don't think they show football matches.
Can remember being in Amsterdam the day of that World Cup game when Bergkamp scored the late winner v Argentina. That was a lively evening. Should have been v England but the silly cunt Not Sir David Beckham got himself sent off.

Proper alone here but I don't "get" Amsterdam.
Apart from all the weed it's no different to almost any other major European town or city with a few museums and canals and a red light district.
Plus all the pubs are tiny and it's about £7 a beer, which is only ever filled up about 3/4 the way and they look at you like shit if you ask for it to be topped up.
Oh and it has shitter colder weather than the UK.
Enjoy.

Always found Amsterdam to be nice and not expensive (I live in Copenhagen mind)
Apart from the weed and the Red light, it's just the same as anywhere, made me laugh
