Pubs etc open for Lions tests

Moody_mona · 21-06-2017 11:16pm #1

Hi all,

Hoping someone might be able to point me in the direction of a pub/hotel bar/cafe that will have the Lions games on in the morning, for this Saturday and Saturday week? Anywhere in the Sligo town area?

Thanks in advance,
Mona

No I don't mean serving drink even. There will be a few pubs open in Dublin, not just early houses.http://publin.ie/2017/here-are-the-pubs-opening-for-lions-matches/ I won't have access to Sky Sports so if there was somewhere I could watch them that would be great.

Exactly! They would have only been closed for an hour or two

id say most people in sligo don't even know the lions tour is even on.

Radio it is so

if anyone thinks of somewhere I'd appreciate the tip, thanks!

im sure if you go into any of the hotels in sligo and ask them to put it on they will. prob some of the guests having breakfast might have already asked them.

Glasshouse will have it as a fundraiser for Sligo RFC on a huge screen. €15 admisson which includes breakfast and support for a local club.

That's perfect malmedicine, thanks for that! Had a quick scan on Facebook, is it just for this week's game?

Had a text from the Club about Saturday - texted back to see if they gonna do same for the other tests - not decided yet but if Saturday goes well they likely will.

Don't think they expecting it to be 'sold out', but worth being a little early to get a good seat! :-) Should be a good atmosphere even at that hour - I know there are gonna be a couple of Kiwi's in attendance!

Think I'll struggle outta bed 2 mins before kickoff and watch at home this time!
