welshchris Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Hi Guys I am arriving from Bangkok late this afternoon (and game starts at 7pm) and was wandering if you knew of any bars that were showing the rugby today? Had a look in Bangkok post and it doesnt apear to be on Star Sports or UBC. Any ideas. Thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul1970 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Try Gullivers at the start of Beach road, I have watched every Welsh match there though the Rugby doesn't get big screen status as thats usually reserved for the premiership though the Wales Scotland match was a big screen showing. Normally the rugby is on the smaller screens in the dining room and there have been a few welsh there for every match. I will drive by Gullivers later today and will look and let you know for sure. As we are on at 7PM which is very early it should be a big screen showing. Will post more details later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetchariot Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) I was about to start a thread about this myself. Ireland v Wales kicks off at 8.15, and Scotland v England at 10.15 . I was thinking about Gullivers myself, they are definitely not on UBC so will need somewhere with South African Sports - which Gullivers has. Anyone else have any other suggestions, and any TV rugby fans want to meet up for a few beers? Swing low...

paul1970 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Gullivers are showing both rugby matches on the screens in the dining room with the welsh match advertised at 8. Theres not much seating area in the dining area, it's not a room as such rather just a raised section behind the pool tables. I will probably aim to get there around 7 to watch the Welsh match and then make my way over to the big screen where my footy team will be showing at 10. Bred of heaven, bred of heaven, feed me till I want no more.....hic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetchariot Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I'll see you there about 7-30 Paul, but sounds like I'll need some company for the proper game at 10.15 . Swing low... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshchris Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Thanks guys. Just had alook at the internet and put 6nationsa and pattaya into google and Jamesons came up as showing it and from teh website looks like its teh main attraction. Maybe see you at Gullivers or if i find any other place will let you know. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humphrey Bear Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 No Typo error it realy is called Soi 8 in Soi 8 about 50 yds down on right hand side. The owner paid 100,000 baht for the research needed to come up with this name. Was his wife's cousin, who had just set up a management consultancy.

welshchris Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Just cam back from a little wander round the bars. Was up by Soi Metro just off Soi Diana Inn, and saw it is on a big screen in a bar called metro (another great name(. Looks quite nice in there and prices looked ok so might plump for that one as im staying at Areca on Soi Diana anyway. The owner said he is showing rugby in half teh place and football in the other.

Yeah I have watched it in there a few times, but it's a little, erm, awkward tonight as I have the missus with me. Landlord is a rugby man (Irish) and a nice chap to boot, so you should have a good banter with him when Ireland stuff you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a problem with the Jocks / Frogs match, 'cos I wanted both to lose. But what a pathetic showing from England - I'm almost ashamed to acknowledge them. Must have been the banning of Cipriano that did it. What has Ashton got against Wasps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphrey Bear Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Now - who was right? Ashton forced to play Cipriano. England (thanks to Cipriano) win by a mile. Wasps are the GREATEST - always were, always will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetchariot Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Yes congratulations, I have to say you deserved it. If only England played throughout the tournament as they did on Saturday then we might have given you a run for your money. Ah well, next year. BTW totally off topic, but as this is on the Pattaya forum does anyone know the dates of the 10's tournament at Horseshoe Point this year? I think it was May last year, it was a great couple of days. I might even go training with the Panthers and see if I can get a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
