Come on where we all meeting up. Pick a place and lets pack it out with Leythers.

Well I was going to the 'Eric Bartholemew' but dont think we are going now

The Shaggy Cockerel just off the main square

Need to find British bias pub to watch Blues on Thursday - thats my number 1 priority when I we get there.
If anyone has serious suggestion I would appreciate (gutted about timing of this trip now

)

The Frog and Rosbif pub may be a good bet for it (although it is not listed on their website as being on) [urlhttp://www.frogpubs.com/english-pub.php?pub=5[/url

Perhaps you lot that arrive \Thurs can check everywhere out and post a meeting point on here before Sat Morning.

De Danu Toulouse Irish Pub has been showing British sport, including Manchester City games. Here's the link to their website. [urlhttp://www.dedanu.com/[/url

Both suggestions have been emailed thanks.



I hope their beer is casked also, but maybe pushing it there.

What date are you in Toulouse?

Thursday.
We will be like Glasgow Rangers when they invaded Manchester. There will be big screens put on in the squares in Toulouse for the thousands of Leythers that can't get tickets. There will be tick and pass games with the locals which are filmed for French tele (with comments of "how friendly these Leythers are"icon_wink.gif......anti IRA songs sung in the squares and drink flowing from Spar carrier bags.....

Found anywhere to watch Man Sh[ii[/itty yet?

Not yet but I only emailed them 30-45mins ago. They will need a few days to decipher my broken French.

No they'll need a few days to stop laughing

Wen u liv in the posh part of Salford its amazing ow vite 1 picks up foreign laungages.

Je parle francais tress bbbbbbbbbbbbbbeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen so any Leythers who bump into me will be able to order food with confidence.

A french whench key habitez pres de moi told me they eat slugs in Toulouse at a tenner un plat.

The dirty foreign barstwards pouvez vous imagin ca dans le Capital ?

Disgusting filthy foreigners and some live on Glebe St.

Looks like its the Frog & Rosbif on Thursday night

Always thought that'd be the most likely prospect. Will try other places so that we've somewhere to meet up on the Saturday though, all in the name of research, of course

Another potential pub [urlhttp://uk.babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_url?trurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.toulouseweb.com%2Fmeltingpot%2Findex.html&lp=fr_en&.intl=uk&fr=yfp-t-501[/url

You really are a glutten for punishment arent you

I spent a top weekend in Toulouse a while back, as said earlier in thread De Danu is the place to be, it's an Irish bar owned by Trever Brennan, he used to play for Toulouse in union. He's the one who went into the crowd and punched a fan, got a lifetime ban for his troubles. Anyway De Danu has multiple sky boxes so shows everything that is on. Also does a top Irish breakfast to beat the hangovers.


Bath Viking.

I go to Toulouse quite often on business

Deardo is right about Trevor Brennan owning that pub, though I haven't been into it

I popped into the Frog and Rosbif before the England V France RL game last summer, and it is the nearest thing to a pub other than De Danu. Remember that I spoke to an English bloke behind the bar who said they were off to the RL match, so there is some awareness of RL there. They defo had sky sports anyway. In fact come to think of it quite a few bars around the main square showed the England V France game

Other than that, Toulouse has loads of bars, clubs etc and is a wicked place to visit IMO especially in high summer. I can imagine all the Leythers singing on Place Du Capitole!

Can't make this game as am moving next week, but hope everyone makes it into town and has a laugh. Oh and er, hopefully Leigh can win!

P.S. The French RL cup final is at Albi the day after, if anyone is interested. It is between Carcasonne and Limoux I believe

We eat snails lol not slugs. Not that I know! Yum yum



Seriously, even if you are not that adventurous foodwise, I am sure you'll love the local food... and wine.

Enjoy Toulouse, it is a beautiful city with very welcoming habitants.

Just been weighing up the relative locations of Le Frog & Rosbif and Du Danu on the Toulouse Town Map. Le Frog & Rosbif is closer to the city Centre and also very close to the Jean Jaures Metro station which is the intersection of the two main Metro lines so this might be the best bet as it will be easy to get to and easy to then go on to the Stde de Minimes for the buses to the ground.
