I’ll be thinking of you all and probably sneaking a glance while in the toilet.

And will you be watching the game at all?

The game is being shown live on BeIN Sports (channel Max 5) in France. This is a subscription channel but if you are in a reasonably-sized town, you should find a bar that has it. Also, look for English/Irish* style pubs who will probably have Sky Sports.

If you tell me where you are staying I can find out for you.

You can also try the website Allomatch.com - Aston Villa games

(not all bars publish their match calendar on here but you may get lucky).

Shhhh....no chance of that, most definitely not. No peaking at any illegal stream during the day from me on my mobile device.

I'm playing a gig in Gütersloh on Saturday and I've already phoned up to make sure they can show it. With a bit of luck it'll be me, the missus, free beer and a big screen to ourselves.

If you want to avoid dodgy streams and have a spare £7 you can watch it on Sky. You just need to download a good quality VPN app for your phone or tablet (such as TunnelBear) and then pay for a NowTV daily sports pass. Bob's your uncle you are watching the Sky coverage.

Guînes up north, near Calais ?

If so try Aux Scorpions, bar PMU. Place Foch, the main square. On Google maps the Photo shows a photo when the bar's name was 'Le Lion d'Or'.

They normally close at 7pm.but they showed the Euros and World Cup at their place. They have darts machines too. And betting. You never know.

I'm reckoning the nearest for me is Bordeaux. Bit of a trek mind just to watch sober on TV.

I can't be at the game Saturday which kills me. I will watch it at home as if I go to the pub I know there will be noses and Smethwick pie eaters cheering Fulham on which will send me off the deep end. So to avoid trouble i'll be sat in front of the TV with a few bottles of red.

Aux Scorpions no longer have Bein Sports Richard. I messaged them and they would love to see you but won't have the game.

In Bordeaux you will have it on, no sweat Drummond.
