I'm in two minds about where we go afterwards. On the one hand I don't want to go to a noisy & busy bar, which i'd guess most places showing the football will be like, but I also realise that a lot of people want to watch the game*.
Can anyone suggest a bar in Manchester fairly close to Madlab that will be showing the game and that won't be packed/shit/dangerous? The option I was favouring (assuming no such bar exists) was to take the perhaps small contingent of people who aren't going to watch the game and go to Marble. As has been mentioned, we should be finished with the meetup before the match starts, so if we do go to a bar not showing the match you would still have time to find yourself a packed/shit/dangerous pub to watch it in ;) Will. * I did know about it, I would have been watching it myself were it not for NWRUG.
