Watering holes..

The Members Bar is not members only on matchdays by the way, in case that's how it came across.

Good pint in Dalymount !stroll down the canal and its all over !Heaven (and of course 3 points)!All non Bohs fans welcome !The pint is worth it!

[Bluetonic]

so are the bars in Croker definitely not gonna be open on Saturday then?
Yes that's correct, its a UEFA ruling. There will be bars open in premium and box level as this is a separate ruling.

Well in that case you can't blame the FAI - as long as they don't try and pass off that Sans-Alcool lager that they sell in many European stadiums as the real deal. So many people get stung with that EVERY TIME. :)

[McGinty]

why is it a UEFA ruling? you can get pints in Anfield, and we all saw yer man struggling to carry 6 pints on a tray at the San Marino game!

Trust me you can't get alcohol in the public areas in Anfield during a full UEFA international. Full UEFA internationals and premiership games are under different rulings.

UEFA also ban alcohol at CL and UEFA cup matches.

[OneRedArmy]

Anyone at the Derry City UEFA Cup game in Goteborg will have seen the hilarious consequences of this rule when the UEFA match official stopped the refreshment stand serving beer after 10mins of the game (as evidenced by a sign saying "Beer sales prohibited on order of UEFA", whereupon the enterprising Swedes scrawled "but we still have cider" in handwriting underneath.

Apparently the UEFA match delegate was unaware cider contained alcohol (I think he thought it was Cidona-type stuff) and the 300 Derry fans tucked into pint after pint of Kopperbergs Pear Cider.

Bluetonic, surprised there is an exemption for premium areas? Would have thought this wouldn't pass equality legislation (eg in UK grounds no-alcohol rule is in place in boxes and premium areas when the game is on, adherence is a different matter!).

[Beavis]

If its nice weather I'll defo be out the back of Meagher, as is usual procedure for Dubs games. Quinns is only for boggers!:p

[WexDec]

Yeah can confirm Anfield serve alcohol for Premiership but not for CL.......which might explain a lot :rolleyes:

[casso36]

And how would you know????:D :D

[Fr. Joe]

The Big Tree it is so guys...???

[drummerboy]

Cat and Cage for me. Anywhere nearer Croker will be too cramped. Space to sit down and have a pint and a bit of nosh.

[aidz1]

[Raheny Red]

Bar in Tolka open today for International (http://www.shelbournefc.ie/news.php?id=603)

[scousedub]

Jurys hotel is not a bad spot for a drink. Bar area is quite big and obviously as its the closest pub to the ground you can get more beer into you. Was there for yesterdays game and while busy, quicker service than a lot of pubs in the area.

[WexDec]

I hope the pints are better than the muck they serve in Ballsbridge. Went there last time for spares (yes for San Marino) instead of our usual Paddy Cullens and was very sorry that I did. Ended up switching my choice of drinks twice thinking everything couldn't be equally as muck, but I was wrong. Had a Guinness in Dohenys afterwards to remind myself why I drink.

Goes down as probably the worse bar I've been in Dublin including my old college bar which is saying something.

[casso36]

Madigans on O'Connell street not bad pub and only 10 minute walk to stadium, have afew there and walk to Croker from there!
