I'm going to be in France for England's first game, staying down near Nice and Cannes. Don't think I'll have TV or wifi where I'm staying, which makes it tricky to watch given its a midnight kick-off... anybody got any suggestions?!

Antibes has a good Irish pub with a Swindon scarf in their window (one of mine)  :beers:

Surely any pub over there will show the game?

Quite possibly. I've found one or two places that look like they'll be showing it as long as they're open til 2am. Just wondered if people had any recommendations!

Morrisons in Cannes
The Blue Lady in Antibes
Ma Nolans (Old town not the port) in Nice
Stars 'n Bars Monaco
Kellys St Tropez


Other boozers are available but they're my favourites.

Rascas in Monaco. It is open all night

Most of the small bars will stay open as long as someone's buying, all over france. I've even watched matches in landlords front rooms in the middle of the night.

I thought this was going to be a warning about bogs.

:D

Going on holiday to Sicily tomorrow for a week so watching the England game Saturday night could be interesting. Hope there are more English fans in the hotel or the flag I am taking might not get an airing as I do not wish to upset the locals - horses head and all that!  :hmmm:

That is serious horses head country ;D

Show the flag. You'd get a decent sleep, and fishes to keep you company.

Sure is. Went a few years ago though. Loved it!!

Tempted to nip across and watch the game somewhere in Sanremo instead now, just for a laugh. Expect I'll stick with Nice though, some good suggestions above.

Might have to watch week two in Barcelona because of work.

If I go anywhere it'll probably be George Payne's Bar but it'll probably be the hotel room for me though.

anyone on here going to the world cup?  :pint:

I've just realised that with the work I've picked up, I'm flying out to Luxembourg on the 2nd July and will probably be on a tour bus from then for 3 weeks which might make the knockout stages a bit difficult.  Which is a bit of a pisser.

Massive Attack?

Massive fuck up, I'd say.

Stevie Wonder.  But he wont see me watching the football so thats ok.

Oh at the Rockhal. I hate that venue, crap location, difficult to get out of (if you have to drive) and basically in the middle of an industrial site.

Fair enough.  Really liked den atelier, but I guess thats a little too wee.

I'm watching the opening game at a bar in Kamari with a couple of Apoel Nicosia fans i met.
