Guys any ideas for tomorrow, a few of us heading out from the site. Looks like we might have to end up in the Wool Shed.

I'll be heading out to the pub. No idea where to go but the Woolshed is less than 5 minutes walk from me so that suits me grand.

Difficult shout lads with so many people having Sky Sports at home. Think the thing is for one or two to make a call early for the location and communicate it out in the lead uo. If you're definitely heading to The Woolshed, I'll tweet it out there.

With regards to a definitive Pub it's a trial and error thing, often the best venues aren't the best hosts after a few events the best one becomes clear. Just got to put the hard yards in... ;)

The big thing today is that is not actually on Sky Sports its on Red Button Sky Sports and so many pubs have NTL.

Rang Toners on upper baggot street/merrion row. He has two boxes and they have a massive beer garden at the back and the match will be shown.

Seems like a good crowd heading to Searsons down the road to watch the match as well. Toners is packed after the Leinster match.

As per the other thread, looks like we're going to try and get a crowd together to watch the Biarritz match on Friday night.
It's only on the Red Button, so we need somewhere with Sky.

So far we have two people interested, both living near Grand Canal. We're talking about going to Slattery's for it, but if more people are interested, post the area you live, and we'll try to organise for a pub that suits everyone

Folks, suggestions for RDS pre-match watering hole...

7.45 Kick-off should facilitate a get together for a few warmer uppers for those attending....

We'll be nominating a bus to Dublin as well as a pub, keep an eye on this thread for info:
connachtclan.com/cclan-forum/5-flights-t...y-fri-dec-19th-19-35

We were hoping to organise something for the trip to Belfast, but the timing means that a same-day return journey isn't possible, so will probably just nominate a bus/pub there too.

There was talk at one point of establishing an official pub in Dublin. We might revive it at some stage if we find a bar that will have us.
