The Bowl: Pre match drinks

[MariborKev]

Lads,

What are the drinking options for Friday?

[DmanDmythDledge]

There's a bar a two minute walk from the ground, on the UCD campus.

The Bowl is #10 on this map, there's a bar at 17.

[MariborKev]

Is that the Forum Bar, in what was the "new" SU when I was there?

My house is a short, fifteen minute stroll away!

You'll have to bring your own booze though; poor students and all. ***

But yeah, to make this post semi-useful, the bar alluded to is The Forum Bar, in what was the "new" SU when you were there.



***Actually, I can't go to the match as my brother's having a birthday party, so I'll leave the key under the mat.

Well we are the Queens University Belfast Students Union Derry City Supporters Club, so we are all students here.

"Colours" okay for the Forum bar?

Can't imagine there'd be a problem.

Yes the more colours the better. But please remember this is a student bar and admission is strictly reserved to students, however, we have an invitation for memebrs of Derry City supporters clubs on the night and they will need to bring their membership cards to gain entry. There will be more details on this for Derry Supporters through your club.

Presumably the Montrose still works as a pre game option for non students etc

And Lonegans, yes. There are a few pubs a short bus ride up the Clonskeagh road too, if away fans want to avoid students.

NO! Come to the Forum bar we are going to be outnumbered as it is!

It starts here Titan, but it ends with you carefully positioning dummies in UCD colours on the seats. Give up, before it's too late!

Will there be sandwiches in the Forum Bar? That could sway my decision.

Listen Sunshine those dummies still had to go through the turnstiles and therefore are counted by our automated counting system. Nothing to do with me!

Of course there will. As well of hot food and lashings of ginger ale. All at an affordable price!

I probably shouldn't reveal this, but my thought process on reading this went thus: lashings of ginger ale -> The Famous Five -> Timmy the dog -> Timmy Purcell.

Sorry Timmy. Have a biscuit.
