GUST in accordance with Foxs Bar are organising sandwhiches etc from 5pm on.This is where most away fans come before the match,It's at the bottom of Eyre Square.All the nearest pubs to the ground are in the Square.

Sligo fans will be treated to Foxs finest air sandwhiches.

That pub isn't really near the ground though is it?:confused:.

Conor H, "All the nearest pubs to the ground are in the Square"

The pubs mentioned are definately closer and any of the pubs in woodquay are probably closer aswell. Eyre square is probably the furthest away you could be.

kates has had 2 stabbings in the past year.
If you wan't to go there fair enough.

Woodquay is about 2 minutes from Eyre Square.........also what pubs do ya want to go to in Woodquay?

I'm aware of the closet locations to Terryland.....i've lived here all my life.

The Eyre Square is a 3 minute drive from Terryland.Woodquay is 2 minutes and 40 seconds.Take your pick.

Well done, I lived there for four years, i'm sure I know that area equally well since it doesn't generally take any longer than that to get to know the place.

Fair enough Kates is a bit of a dive but Foxes isn't anything special either. If you were gonna go as FAR as Eyre Square you may aswell go somewhere decent and preferably up the top end as, you are probably aware and having lived there all your live and having such great and intimate knowledge of the place, they are closer to Terryland aswell. Nothing wrong with Menlo Park Hotel either. Bar903 would be good.

Think it will be a 14 seater bus so if you are looking for a seat PM me!

kates is now known as "the centre bar" and the last time I was down there (last week) the place was locked up after more trouble. New owner took over last year and everybody and anybody drinks there now, enter at your own risk.

I'll be in the menlo myself, with a few others if any of ye want to meet up there. its about a 5 minute walk from terryland and the closest bar to the grounds.

EDIT: It also has a large car park, perfect for the buses as I can see the dyke road being closed from 7pm onwards.

Kates/Centre Bar is closed for the past two weeks.

GUST have always invited supporters of away teams to Foxs. Finger food will be provided and there will be a great atmosphere.

I hope to see you there, before and afterwards.

LOL. I kid you not when I tell you that there is a theatre on Dyke Road, It's called The Black Box. You just couldn't make sh!t like that up.

Anyway, as Terry said, the Menlo Park is a the nearest to Terryland and it's a decent place and you can get some decent grub there too.

But of you want a bit if pre-match banter with genuine football fans, go to Foxes in Eyre Square. They provide cocktail sausages and sambos for all football fans and the craic is good. Last year, scores od Shamrock Rovers fans joined Galway United fans AFTER we beat them and the craic was mighty.

Parking cant be guarenteed in Terryland after 7pm lads so if your running late the Menlo Park is the best bet.There will be strict segregation with Sligo Fans getting Blocks F&G ,Seperate Toilets and Food also at that ens.

There will be security checks on the way in Alcohol,Flares and Smoke Bombs will be confiscated. Enjoy the night and may the best team win.
