Title: Plans for Saturday?
Post by: Dazzza on Monday, June 5, 2006, 21:48:09
I've still not decided which shit hole to watch the match in but it's lined up for a nice all day session.

Probably commence with a dirty fry up in a greasy spoon complete with black pudding.  Quick trip to the bookies and then hit some dive of a bar to watch the game before retreating to the relative safety of some clone of a franchise bar with wall to wall orange women and beer prices to turn the stomach.

I think I will be going out on Friday, so I will probably crawl out of my bedroom, make a bacon sarnie and begin to consume my share of the 40 beers that will be in the fridge.

Then I will watch the game at home

be carefull not to get too drunk untill after the game or you will forget what is likely to be a superb game.

I will be in Frankfurt watching it on the floating screen on the River. Or if the view is crap I will find a pub

I suppose if I weren't so lazy I could go to a pub. There's a couple that are a minutes walk away and some about 5 minutes away.

I don't fancy paying £2.90 a pint though  :|

At home with a BBQ on the go and about 20 people in tow.  Beer flow begins at 9am and there is still hope for a barrell of beer to be purchased for the day, just to get the pub feel.

(I knew that TV purchase last year would come in handy, 54inches of football delight)

Either the Wheatie or Fusion in Old Town probably. There is the possibility of free pizza at half time in Fusion so that may tip the balance.


Title: Plans for Saturday?
Post by: RobertT on Tuesday, June 6, 2006, 15:59:09
Fusion was quality in 1998 with the huge block screen in the courtyard (one of those where they build it up with 9 blocks).  Cracking atmosphere.

I just realised I'm going to miss saturdays game as I'll be travelling down to Southampton. If I'm lucky, I'll be watching on a portable telly in the car. If I'm unlucky it'll be listening to the radio. :(

A huge shame, would've been nice to watch all the games at my local with my mates like Euro 2004.

Unfortunately said town top is at my mums. But I will wear my black town polo shirt instead.

Not sure where we are sitting for Friday and Quali on Saturday as it's a roving ticket. sunday we are in Pit Straight A. Bit boring for the racing I admit, good view for the 'occasion' (pit formation, pit stops, podium presentation). Sat at Stowe B last year. That was tops.

Going down to Southampton as we've (the band I'm in) have a gig at The Hobbit. But as it turns out we don't have to be there till late so I'll have loads of time to watch the England game. Ooh also, you should come see us if you're about!

not sure where i will be heading too.

choice of 3 pubs for me.

one is my local which is a 1 minute walk from my house. opens at 8:30am for breakfast and licenced to serve beer then too.

Another is Chicago Rock in Stourbridge with a load of mates but that opens at 11am and doesn't serve breakfast or food of anysort.

and the final choice is a pub called the Woodman which holds roughly 400 (in the main area) and has loads of tele's but is likely to be rammed.
bar snacks are available.

choices choices
