Who's up for it?
When and where? Will be going down on the Galway bus, so providing there are not too many stoppages for the Skangers this time, we should be getting in about 5pm or before into Mountjoy Sq (I think)

The Big Tree or Quinns in Drumcondra?
A group of us ( including Bear 11,AidoM,Moscow Mule) are meeting in the Big Tree.......I'll be early as my flight arrives into Dublin at 07.15!:eek:
i would recommend mcgraths pub beside drumcondra railway station.
seems to be an easier place to get served when the crowds fill in.
I will be in Kate's Cottage from 4pm onwards, across the road from Connolly station.
Neil thats more than a 10 min walk to croker, is that where all the snobs sorry I mean southsiders come up from? :D
Big Tree is a good location, im not going to be able go back to this one unfortunately.
....:DQuote:

A few good TV screens too for the football and most importantly a hot Brazilian girl works behind the bar. It will also be handy for where Sligo Hornet is staying that night as Store Street Station is next door.Quote:

I'm not usually a fussy person, but I'm sick of the Big Tree, always rammed and there's no craic in there at all. Have to say I'd be up for McGrath's(is got for service) or Quinns. Our bus drops us to Mountjoy Sq so ideally we should be going to the pubs round there. I dunno, put it to vote!
Never been in Kate's Cottage but i know of it. Neil, you tramp, get yer southsider mates to meet closer to Croker?
Calling Saint Tom etc?
Kates Cottage is not south Side its northside and its right beside Connolly and Busarus so could not be easier to find. Great spot in my view. Good Barman etc and does not get wedged and seriously it is not a far walk to Croker from there Just 5 minutes to the 5 lamps and then another ten mins from there.
I agree with you about the Big Tree
:eek::confused:Quote:

Paul o'shea you've been in bed with galah, so his couch is nothing! Dirty git
Sounds good to me Green Tribe. I will be in Kate from 4pm onwards. I hope she likes it.

Neil, I have to slum it when I come back from the big smoke to lowly dirty Dublin. No better places. well there probably is like somewhere out in inchicore but...:D
word on the street some foot.ie residents are prepared to give the big tree a miss??? :eek:
im going to the big tree for an auld verse of travelling man from papa john!!! :D:D

Torn ligaments in my knee playing football. What can you do. I am sure I will be ok for the Cyprus game (ok to drink that is).
Missing the St Pats game tonight and missed the Bohs Rovers match on Friday as I was in hospital.
Playing football....my a*se!!.......tripped over chasing yet another piece of skirt that was too flighty for him!!:DQuote:

McGraths anyone?? Anywhere but the big trollop
You won't get rid of me that easily. I know where McGrath's is you know, its on the Clare/Dublin border.
No Neil not that one....GT's "local" is this one http://www.mcgrathspub.net/Quote:
