    Hi all,

    I'm currently in Scotland. Just wondering if there are any recommendations about where is best to watch the All-Ireland this Sunday? We're looking for somewhere with some atmosphere where other Mayo/Dub fans would likely be gathered.

    Thanks in advance!

    Finnegan's Wake on Victoria St are definitely showing it http://www.finnegans-wake.co.uk/sports/

    I''ll be watching it on my newly minted dodgy sat box in Musselburgh :D Love having all the Irish channels at home now

    Thanks! That that was the one I was thinking of. Was wondering if there were any hidden gems elsewhere in the city.

    What's the craic like? Is it mainly just groups of mates, or is it a place a few ex-pats can sit down and talk ****e and watch the match?

    Bit late to reply but yeah, it is a mixture of both.

    All the staff are pretty much from Ireland north and south so it feels like a proper home pub rather than a complete fiddley-aye place too :)
