Author Topic: NRL Final sunday morning... Advice needed  (Read 1668 times)

I'm planning a Swindon trip this weekend.

The NRL (Australian Rugby League for the Philistines out there  Wink ) grand final is on Sunday morning at ~10am

My parents do not have Sky Television.

Will any pub in Swindon be showing this event?

I'm assuming not, but thought it was worth asking the question.

Any answers appreciated

Shame. There's nothing quite like going to the pub early in the morning for a bit  and having a few beers. It's even more absurd if the game is in New Zealand and starts at ~7am

This is actually a general discussion forum. I think you need glasses as clearly all that wanking is making you go blind.

But if you like wanking so much, the not safe for work forum may have some dodgy wanking material.

At the end of the day, it's all footy, whether Association, Rugby, Aussie Rules, or Gaelic. Not so sure about American myself, but each to their own...

If you ask nicely at the steam railway in old town I'm sure they'll put it on, unless somebody is watching something else.

But the problem is more the start time of 10am... Unless a large Antipodean community now exists in Swindon where there wasn't one a few years ago, I doubt any pub will be opening up early to show it.
