i dont live in london, so it may be quite different there, but from my experience(and i know lots of polish people) it is far more the norm to go to friends houses, whether it be for football, tea, coffee or a drink. poles are thrifty people i find generally, so why go to a bar and have to fork out for drinks, when you can watch football at home, with your friends.

this is exactly the attitude of most Poles (including myself)

The Falcon, Battersea - it was my local for a number of years.

Unlike many of the pubs in the area, it's not a dodgy "estate pub" or full of upper middle class Nathan Barley types. The back room has sport on, but I can't remember how big the screen is (I'm not into sport anyway). Went in there a couple of months ago, and it's still a decent pub. I'm sure there are several other pubs in the area with big screens if it's not quite your scene, though.
