Oneills in leicester square could be good craic given its a friday night.

Pat logues in mornington crescent http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs...s.shtml/34509/

Its the Derrys supporters club meet up too so suits you. Yer mate DCFC steve has been there in the past.

The marquee of gansbury or whatever you call it would show it too around totenham court road.

Depedsn what you are after, there isn't really any good irish soccer pubs in london, particularly central london.

He is a cork lad good lad, derry supporters used to go up stairs there too. Just ring him to make sure he is def showing it as the last time i was there was year and half ago.

A cousin of mine works in this place http://www.claddagh-ring.co.uk/quays/index.html (I think he might be the manager these days). I don't know London at all and map wise it looks to be well north but it might be useful to someone. According to Facebook: "Free admission to the Quays before 12am all weekend! All sourz shots �2.50 get down tonight and watch Ireland v Slovakia and England v Bulgaria! All mojitios �3.95! Live music Sunday 6pm till 8pm with the Curragh after the All Ireland hurling final"

**boovidge** · 02/09/2011, 1:47 PM

I can't remember from where but I've heard the Claddagh Ring is an absolute dump.

**passinginterest** · 02/09/2011, 1:49 PM

Ha could well be! Apologies if I've just directed anyone towards near certain death.

**koneinc** · 02/09/2011, 2:14 PM

Hop on the jubilee/bakerloo line and watch it in Kilburn, always a good atmosphere in The Kingdom or Sir Colin Campbell on the high st.

**paul_oshea** · 02/09/2011, 2:50 PM

Claddagh is ok.was good for champions league final but i was only one watching the Armenia game in thrrr.....

The kingdom is a dump.as are most pubs up there.but i suppose at least they are our dumps.

I probably know yer cousin at least to see.is he from dunmore/galway?

You've hit the nail on the head there. I'm not Kilburn's biggest fan but feck the state of the pubs, I prefer to be in the company of my compariots for these games.

He's from Rosslare, my old golfing buddy when we were youngsters. Haven't seen him in years, he must be in London at least 5 years at this stage, big Arsenal fan.

Oh and it's The Quays that he works in not the Claddagh.

**paul_oshea** · 02/09/2011, 3:41 PM

Big tall fella? I know him to see....he has a bird who is fairly into heavy metal i tried to chat up a couple of times a good while ago hahaha

**passinginterest** · 02/09/2011, 3:45 PM

That sounds like him alright! Used to be a fairly decent goalkeeper too. He's a gentle giant, although that may change when it comes to defending his women!!

**paul_oshea** · 05/09/2011, 12:50 PM

Ha, coincidence, but I'm meeting up with a few mates tomorrow for the football, and one of those in the extended group is your cousin

**paul_oshea** · 06/09/2011, 9:41 AM

few of us heading to the sheephaven for 4 if anyone is around.

**passinginterest** · 06/09/2011, 9:48 AM

Tell the cousin I said hello!

**paul_oshea** · 06/09/2011, 9:55 AM

Ill say PAssingInterest - who doesn't drink, lives in south dublin, from wexford, supports Wexford Youths, occasionally goes to see Rovers, has a girlfriend - said hello

**passinginterest** · 06/09/2011, 9:58 AM

Haha. Just mention playing golf in Rosslare and he'll know who it is. I saw him talking about the Sheephaven on Facebook this morning so it's definitely the same fella.

*I'm slightly worried you remember that much about me

**paul_oshea** · 06/09/2011, 10:22 AM

Without sounding like a knob, almost everything that is ever written on this forum, even when I glance I remember it(save dates and stuff like that).

The problem is that when I go search posts to back up against people like Dodge i can never find the stuff

Ya i was planning on saying the cousin who he played golf with.
