I will be at my nephew's holy communion bash at my sisters house in Cork.  Before they semi final I warned her there was a chance the family doo might not have my full attention. T.V. Being set up in the garage along with the beer pumps. Could be dangerous .

I was going to the Bull at Ambridge but the big screen's broken so they've cancelled.

I am in the one place I can't watch the game at all....

In the air, half way to Tenerife!  That'll learn me to plan ahead in future.

I'll await the influx of text messages when I turn my phone back on again.  Hopefully, there'll be loads of "You jammy b@st@rds"

My son has to go to Manchester for a friends 21st. Can anyone suggest a good pub where he can watch the final?

The Lost Dene on Deansgate or Mulligans on Southgate (which is just off Deansgate) are both decent for the football; plus there isn't much love for Arsenal round this neck of the woods so most of the locals will be supporting the Villa!

I have to work weekends these days in a large retail store hence I stopped my season ticket after 20 years !
I usually finish work at 6pm on Saturdays. This Saturday I will go to work in a motorhome which has a TV and will finish early. Already taken it in and double checked the reception and will be in the car park right outside the back of the store. A couple of colleagues (including my Arsenal supporting sales manager !) are watching it with me.
Homemade Lasagne, Salad, Crusty Bread and a couple of bottles and some nice celebratory cake will be laid on for a spread.

Watching at home with the Bluenose Mrs who wants us to win.  Might fire up the BBQ and chill in garden beforehand.
