There were a couple of bars in the Praga area (over the river from old town towards the very impressive national stadium) that would only take cash when I was there 4 years ago. I came across 60 zloty in the drawer the other week from then - having £12 to blow is my excuse for going back next week.
. I’ve never been to a place that doesn’t do contactless payments (usually phone but also card) it’s effectively been the norm for the last few years. Handy to have 10 or 20 złoty or so for a tip. Best to avoid Praga as you need to know where you’re going. Lived here for 23 years and very rarely go over there unless it’s to the zoo with the kids!  Not many bars near the stadium, best closer to the centre.

Who would be the English equivalent of Legia Warsaw then?

Maybe he means not knobheads, which let's face it is hard to believe; when a stag do has been drinking long enough, the descent into knobheadery is quick and total.
Stag do is a stag do but nobody was being offensive so to speak. This was a racist attack by the locals and targeted .

They've won the most titles with 15, seven of which have come in the last 11 seasons. The next two teams on the list with 14, Gornik Zabrze and Ruch Chorzow have not won the league since the late 80s. Wisla Krakow are next on 13, having been dominant in the 00s.

So a team from the capital with most of their success coming in recent years, Chelsea maybe? No idea if they've been bankrolled by a Russian oligarch though.

Any news about whether the next couple of games are on TV at all? Not heard anything from the club

Virgin Media More (Ireland) have this game listed in the schedule for next week. No idea what Virgin Media More is, mind you. I never watch any of them. I assume it's an actual chanel and not their online only service.

Edit - I've had a look and I think it's a chanel exclusive to Virgin media subscribers.

That sounds right, the draw was shown on Vigin Media More but I couldn't find it on their website.

It's kind of annoying because they're showing both Liverpool and Brighton the same day but on one of their proper channels. I suppose there's actual Irish interest in the Brighton game, but I'd guarantee there's more Irish Villa fans than Brighton ones.

I've never met a Brighton fan in Ireland (having even met SHA fans) but I suppose there is the Ferguson factor.

We'll have our former centre back Dickie Dunne and Brian Kerr giving out about "yer man, Ezri Konsa trying to organise that bleedin' high line".

Yeah, not my preferred punditry pairing. Kerr's demeanour and voice can become a bit wearing after a while.
