Setenta in local pubs?

[JoeChuff]

Just wondering whether anyone knows quite how many games (and how big they are) Setenta will have from the Prem this year, and whether any pubs in the area have definitely splashed out on it? I'm hoping the CPT will, that's my usual football pub.

[JoeChuff]

er, to answer the first part of my own question, they seem to have basically cornered the Saturday 5.15pm kickoff slot, 46 games in total. So that's quite a few, which pubs have it?

[Brendan]

That?s Setanta Joe.

Not Santana not Setenta.

SE-TAN-TA.

[mockney piers]

Mrs O'Mockney always called it Santana.

Irish gaelic, being absolutely a pronunciation mystery to me, I always deferred to her greater knowledge.

I did feel a bit better about it when an Irish chap in Madrid corrected her though, so the language isn't THAT insane.

And the Castle does, I'm guessing any pub with a sky box will too.

[Rolo Tomasi]

Joe, they will show the games from the "big four" of the 2006/07 season namely Man u, Chelsea, Liverpool & Arsenal.

Isn?t the name Setanta out of the Tain somewhere?

I was at Croke Park last saturday watching the missus' Wexford get trounced and the very exciting Cork v Waterford.

Of course sitting in the p!ssing rain while London was enjoying its brief flirtation with summer was a bit of a downer.

I caught most of Cork v Waterford game in the Castle on Saturday, inbetween games of pool. Marvellous Guinness they do in there. Cracking entertainment.

Ah, Pairc an Chrocaigh, what wonderful memories! How do you pronounce that Mr Mockney? It's Nort Dublin. They have the strangest accent...

[spadetownboy]

hi hold on big man us norn iron wans have the upper hand as far as accents are concerned,none of that bejasus and begorrah rubbish up here

I ended up at the Forest Hill Tavern, as the CPT hadn't paid the Setana subscription and the Magdala were showing the rugby.

Bloody rugby and a meaningless friendly at that. Guess that's the downside of antipodean bar staff.

Have to say that the FHT refurb is fab. It's a much nicer place these days.

[Keef]

The CPT paid it last minute, they thought they had it, and lost a fair few customers before the match. They should have it in future.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Didnt know the fht showed football. . Thanks for the tip emery. I watched second half in cpt and it was a perfect start to a great day

[spadetownboy]

stuff the football what about limerick and monaghan almost, put the "beautiful" game to shame.
