Default Vacation to London: Advice wanted

One of my friends moved to London in October (he has Irish nationality eventhough he was born in Chicago (?)). I am planning a trip there this March.

I would like to see a football game. I know I don't have the cash for a Premeir game. So any suggestions?

Letyon O?
Barnet?

How expensive or possible would it be to see Palace or Charlton?

I'm not even considering Millwall so don't mention it.....

As a West Ham supporter I wouldnt consider watching Millwall if they were the last team on Earth.

You can usually get tickets for Fulham quite easily.

Sometimes they even give them away for free...

You do realize they don't have indoor bathrooms in the UK, don't you?

Yes because a spam fritter washed down with Irn Bru and Vodka is such a sophisticated meal isn't it?

Deep fried Mars bars are a world renowned culinary treat. And haggis has to be up there with the best Beluga money can buy
