Ok, I start my new life in Manchester when I move from my beloved Sheffield over the Pennines this Saturday. The temp digs I'll be living in does not have Setanta mind, and wondered if anyone from Manc can tel me of a boozer where me and me brother can catch the Haye Macca fight?? Needs to be city centre preferably as well.

Pot Noodle 03-05-2008, 05:33 AM The wetherspoons by picadilly gardens should have it on?
Southpaw Stinger 03-05-2008, 08:08 AM I've never seen boxing in any of me local boozers. I'll ask around though.

Southpaw Stinger 03-06-2008, 06:38 AM So far I've got the Sports Cafe in Manchester centre and the only other is The Gateway in south Manchester. Both show regular boxing and big fights but I'm not sure if they will be open at 3am.
DURAN_IS_GOD 03-06-2008, 06:52 AM well with the new 24 hour drinking these bars must have a licence to stay open till 3am....

Indeed. But a lot of em still close at around 12/2am so it's best to make sure. Especially some of the lazy cunt landlords in my area.

actually mate you're right, i know very few bars that have actually bothered with this 24/7 thing. Every club i go to shuts at 3 or 330 normally. Hopefully with the interest for this fight the sports cafe will stay open for naps
Where is this Sports Cafe? I'll pop in on Saturday day and find out if it's gonna be open.
RonRoss 03-06-2008, 08:25 AM theres a sports bar inside picadilly station, probably not the best idea though

How come mate?
RonRoss 03-06-2008, 08:32 AM lots of beer and boxing probably doesn't mix well with lots of security and trains, the fight would almost definately be shown though
Southpaw Stinger 03-06-2008, 11:06 AM Where is this Sports Cafe? I'll pop in on Saturday day and find out if it's gonna be open.

Just called the head office, as this number didn't work, and they tell me that the Manchester branch is now closed down. WANK.
