    Olde Blind Dog is a great place to go to but most of the ones who post on here will be at the Brewhouse Cafe in Atlanta. Hopefully they let you turn the volume on because Terri's (terrinh73) had some issues with some other patrons complaining about it so she gets a TV with no volume. Join us sometime because we'd love to have you.

    Anyways, as long as we're loud, it doesn't matter where we're at. We're probably expecting 5-10 Fulham fans at the Brewhouse and we've got people who back other teams to give us support as well (Can you imagine Liverpool, Arsenal and ManU fans ever cheering together outside of the World Cup?...it's gonna be surreal and awesome all in one).

    Thanks very much for the invite! Would love to join you guys down there, but the Olde Blind Dog is very close to where I work and live in North Fulton. They also support our local adult soccer team here, so my buddies and I feel a loyalty to them. We are happy to have a real soccer pub nearby. They are opening early for us to show the FA Cup on Saturday also.

    Go Fulham!

    Edit: Just called there to verify the free Pint thing. You don't need to be wearing a jersey - just say you are there to watch the soccer game and first pint of any beer is on the house.

    Hey FulhamATL!

    I work at Milton HS and have gone to Olde Blind Dog for matches before...good folks there, but yeah- I've had issues with people (customers) complaining when I've asked for sound on games. I'll go there if I am in a pinch and can't make it to the Brewhouse in time for a match...good to hear they are supporting you guys up in North Fulton!

    Hope you have a good turn out...we'll definitely be in touch! What are your World Cup plans?

    COYWs!

    How embarrassing is it to have a username with both teams? At least ATL is how fifa 2010 displays them.

    Ha! good catch. I actually had this username on the old FulhamFC board way before we ever dreamed of being in the Europa League.

    Now, that's a small world story. Have you been keeping up with the Milton team? What a season and too bad for the loss last night.

    Regarding the Olde Blind Dog - They support our adult team and now others. The place is full of adult soccer players on Tuesday nights and Sundays after local matches. They are working hard to become a full fledged real soccer pub. There have been some issues at times in the past with matches and sound, but some days when the place was full of soccer fans it was a great atmosphere and plenty of sound. One of our teammates just made the issue known to management about the sound and they promised that for all published matches (on their website) they would have the sound up. It has become our "home base" soccer pub for my buddies and me.

    For the World Cup, they have big plans there and that is where we plan to watch many of the matches. Come join us.

    Well, deflated after the loss. But, happy for a great run.
    We were a little disappointed that Dempsey accepted his medal with Jersey in hand. What was that all about. Just an oversight? Looked disrespectful.

    We had about 12 Fulham and EPL fans at the Pub at the high point. Great to see fans of other English teams pulling for us. Was one comical moment when a liverpool fan was shouting death threats at the Atletico striker because he scored and used to play for Man U.

    I was heartbroken to see Dempsey pass by yet another trophy...he had the same look when the USA were defeated by Brazil in the Confederations Cup final.

    I went to OBD a few times after school let out to catch weekday games. I will continue to do so, as I do like the place! Think they'll put up a scarf ;)?
