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")......anti IRA songs sung in the squares and drink flowing from Spar carrier bags.....

Found anywhere to watch Man Shitty yet?

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

pubs in Toulouse : Mon Apr 13, 2009 1:57 pm  

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.

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
