Coming up for the sunderland game with my papa in a couple weekends time. Quiet-ish nice pubs in the centre of town that serve decent food on saturday evening? Can anyone help?

 

 

The Union Rooms (Wetherspoons) is handy for the train station...

 

Is it likely to be quietish the night of a derby though, or full of roaring drunk maniacs?

 

Love eating and drinking in the Town Wall at the moment, just opposite central up Pink Lane.

Whats the town wall like and where is it? And again, what sort of atmosphere will it be on the eve of the derby?

 

Cheers

 

Should be more laid back than places like the gate or Weatherspoons.  More expensive mind.  Their website has a map etc.  Always got a canny selection of beers on.

Food's only served till 7pm on Saturday though.

 

I'd agree with the Town Wall, or The Forth which is opposite.

What time does it serve food till on saturdays? (the forth)

 

Monday to Saturday: Noon - 10pm / Sunday: Noon - 9.30pm

 

Laaavely. Cheers mate. :thup:

 

Just a small point... Don't forget the match is on Sunday lunchtime... So places like The Forth & The Town Wall will be busy on a Saturday night mainly with "drinkers" rather than "diners" as I'd class them both as primarly bars not pubs and especially being the first weekend after pay day... As much as I like both it wouldn't be my choice to eat that evening. Better off going to Grey/Dean Street for a quieter meal or like i said before upstairs in Wetherspoons (The Union Rooms)...

Nice one, any recomendations on Grey/Dean street? Thanks for all the replies fellas.

Dortmund :kasper:

 

I know I and a fair few others on here have said it already but still, absolutely NEED to go to the Westfalenstadion when it's packed. Looks incredible.

 

Can't find an image that does it justice, but imagine 4 walls of:

I went a few months ago. It was pretty impressive. I was in the away end, though. Would probably have been better in the home standing section.

Blackburn deny missing David Goodwillie payment

 

Blackburn have denied reports that they failed to make a scheduled payment to Dundee United for the transfer of striker David Goodwillie.

"The club can confirm that it paid all the monies to the FA on Monday and we are surprised to find this story in the media today," read a Rovers statement.

Still no Enrique, somehow.

 

As this rate, it looks like he's never going to be selected!

Because he's not as good as he thinks he is.

 

Ah, yes. That always seems to prevent international call-ups.

or maybe we sometimes have an inflated sense of our own players ?
