......but a couple of us are planning on staying in bogford for the match on saturday. Set dancing stuff on or something so we cant get a place to stay. We've checked nearly everywhere now!!
Anyone able to help or any ideas??
Doesnt have to be classy or anything - just need a roof over our heads for a couple of hours.

Try the Anvil pub it has rooms, PVs pub has rooms too, Escabar, and also Peter Clarkes pub does bed and breakfast too..they're all in town..Failing that, Max Power's house!!
Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
no no no....their birds look a little sheepish
Ignore Max Power, he is no more, the future is Ron Burgundy. I'd love to be Ron Burgundy but they won't let me........
Right lads, bear in mind ive to look up the phone book for these so could you give me the proper spelling.
got through to the Anvil and Peter Clarkes.
The other 2 i couldnt find...........
Escabar/Annaly Hotel, it's all the one, and P.V's is spelled like that, on Ballymahon Street..
Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
The Anvil Bar (043) 41890
P.V's Bar, Accommodation & Steakhouse (043) 42700
Clarke Peter Dublin st Longford 043 45451
Longford Tourist Office may have some numbers - 043 41124
Right lads, we've rang all them - all booked out.
Looks like we might be staying in Edgewardstown if we dont get sorted out soon and have to get a taxi in and out which im sure will cost a fortune (presume around 40 yoyos??)
Is there anywhere closer to bogford than edgewardstown??
Stupid set dancing!!
It wont cost 40 euro anyway, fifteen or twenty at the very max it's only about six miles out. Try newtownforbes maybe, that's about three miles out of town, im sure there's a b n b somewhere

Aye Frankie Kilbride will look after ye in The Park House in Edgeworthstown alright! No better man.
Either that or try The Shannon Key West Hotel in Rooskey. It's a bit further out but it's a beautiful setting overlooking the Shannon and the grub is top notch.
Ye may aswell make a weekend out of it

Here's a link to the full list on the Longford tourism website:
http://www.longford.ie/tourism/accommodation.asp
Don't think the hostel is still open. Think it may be converted into apartments AKIK.
Richmond Inn in Clondra is a couple of miles out the Strokestown Road, past the ground. Tarmonbarry is just over the Shannon and beside Clondra, further half mile down the road.
It's €12 in for me coming in seven miles so shouldn't be more than €15 even allowing for a drogs surcharge....
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
are sheep extra ????

Try McPartlands in Clondra.... Town supporters grate crack and good grud it might be a bit out of town but not as far as Edgewortstown. Worth a try neway....
never say 'what do girls know about football' !
Booked that hotel in edgewardstown. Cheers lads.
now to more important matters. Pubs/ nightclubs for different moods.
3 matches on the box from saturday midday - wheres the best spot to watch the footie?
Prematch pints - i like the valentine - any other decent spots?
How the f_-k do you lot get back into town after match? Seems like a good walk!!
Postmatch:
- any decent pubs on a saturday night??
Nightclubs:
- presume they're pretty 'relaxed' ie no bull like 'they're not proper shoes' etc.
Depending on our mood we need to know:
- nightclub with nice (and ahem, easy) birds?
- best nightclub in town?
- chilled out nightclub?
You have two nightclubs to choose from on Saturday, Blazers and Blue, both are fairly easy going, no dress code rubbish, alot of Town fans will be in Blue I'd say as the end of season do is on in that bar/club (PV'S)..Blazers is the biger of the two clubs, that's in the Longford Arms.Decent footie pubs..Valentine's, maybe Eamon Farrells, the Tally Ho is a real soccer pub. big LTFC pub, fairly small though..On weekends pubs are all busy mainly the Market Bar, Eamons PV's and Valentines, also Escabar and John Joe's of course, Section O HQ!..As for geting back in to town, most get lifts as there's always cars heading back in, m sure some of ye're lot will be on buses or have room for ye to get into town

I think it might be worth pointing out that they don't allow runners in Blazers - as far as I know, I stand to be corrected though!
I have found men who didn't know how to kiss.
I've always found time to teach them.
The best places to watch footie in Longford are Eamon Farrell's and Tally Ho. Eamon's will have a crowd and a big screen.
Tally Ho is for those who prefer the quality pint of Guinness in comfort (cracking pint). They'll have the games on and, like Eamons, should have the sound turned up for soccer. I would say it's a bit like Clarke's pub in Drogheda (I think that's the name of it), but without the partitions. You might have competition for horse racing in
There's a bookies in between the two pubs for those that like a punt (Bruce's).
For pre-match pints, there'll be a few Town fans in Tally Ho and Valentines, possibly.
Not advisable to walk. Getting back into town after the match can be tricky. You could try booking a taxi. There are a few usually parked outside picking up people who have booked. Nevins 086 2595690.
Pubs on a Saturday night - Eamons, Valentines and PVs.
Post match PVs will be the place to go. The nightclub Blue is adjoined to PVs, while Blazers is down the town, in behind the Longford Arms Hotel. Gets a younger crowd, AFAIK, haven't been there in a while.
Consider yourself corrected Sinead!They allow them since Blue opened, allowing runners, last couple of times I went I wandered down with runners on, no bother.
