    Going to Newcastle this weekend, I'm looking for a place me and my friends could watch the tipp vs Galway game. I know it's on sky sports. But wondering is there anywhere that would put it on. Arsenal and Chelsea also playing that day. Any ideas

    Am sure they have ONeils Pubs in Newcastle. Any of them would probably have it.

    Hmm. Posting in a forum before searching Google for Irish pub Newcastle. Kids these days are getting lazy.

    Newcastle County Down, County Meath, or On-Tyne?
    !

    Irish Centre in Chinatown near James' is the best bet for GAA. Plenty of other sports bars within walking distance for Arsenal Chelsea.

    What I was trying to say was most places would be showing the Arsenal game. They. It gonna put on hurling for 6 Irish lads in England.

    Yeah the irish centre... rough as F but u will see the match there. I think O'Neills opposite central station is gone now but I did watch GAA there a few yrs back.

    I see there might be another O'Neills up on Westgate St.

    !

    The Castle Inn in Newcastle, Co. Wicklow or the Bridge House in Newcastle West Co. Limerick will see you right.

    Kids these days say HB instead of happy birthday, back in my day, if someone said HB, you would be expecting ice-cream

    Yeah I know like newcastle where?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    The Gondola is a good spot for the sports.

    Typical Irish, go on holidays and look for the nearest Irish bar. Go get a bit of culture in OP

    No mention of GAA on their website. The O'Neills in Newcastle appears to be closed now, so it's a moot point anyway.

    Was in there a few years ago and watched the hurling quarters when on a weekend stag. Big screen and change from a fiver for 2 pints.

    Head into The Gate, there's two sportsbars in there with a number of screens. I watched the F1 and the Ireland v Austria game in there

    I mean Newcastle upon Tyne. Cheers lads. Not going for culture. Going for drinking 👠But don't wanna miss tipp game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,687 ✭✭✭andekwarhola


    Just remember if you'll turned away from pubs in Newcastle if you're not dressed appropriately. So invest in some white muscle vests, fake tan and fake gold chains before you go.

    I hope you're not going to pull women. The place is a sausage-fest.

    The local authority provide some useful videos on how interested tourists can culturally assimilate when visting:

    The Irish Centre is the only place you'll get the hurling. Up Galway

    Personally, I'd rather go on the piss than watch Arsenal v Chelsea

    You should see them through beer goggles.

    The fanny is amazing.

    Should this not be in the relevant hurling thread? Or, at a stretch, ther television forum? It's not really an after hours topic.
