Mini meet in Köln - Saturday 22.Apr.2006

as far as I can make it out kick off is 17:15 UK .. = 18:15 here.

I shall be in Köln in the Corkonian (*) for the game, probably with maaph-jr and if my luck doesn't hold out, mother maaph. No extended drinking time, but chance for maybe a few pints.

(*) Could also be Barneys

PS if any regulars can confirm game is actually being shown, would save me a phone call

You're correct on kick off time and I know it will be on in Barney's which is where I will probably be so I can take the mickey out of a couple of scousers in there. If you're going to be in the Cork' I'll stick my head in there for a bit.

What day?

erm .. this Saturday - was that not obvious from the title? Thought EVERYONE who is ANYBODY would know about the semi final ...

Well you see not!

BTW, are you organising a meet-up for the first England game (10th June I think)?

well volunteered Maaph

@Bombi: yes it is, against Paraguay

He's the guy there...

that's easy ... in a pub in Cologne, start about an hour before kickoff. Sorted!


@Bombi - exactly what I was implying ...

Thank you for volunteering for that then!

@Bombi: Saturday is the day when Chelsea will beat Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final... do you really want to spend the evening watching a grown man crying in to his pint?

What a waste of a pint!

maybe (my tip .. 1-1) but better than spending day elsewhere with "muzzer"!

I do not cry into my pint for the reasons Bombi mentions - if I feel a drip coming, I make sure it is into someone elses lap

now you and me both know he can't handle his beer

Very true!

anyone wanting to take an active part in any footy conversation on Saturday (tomorrow, 22.04) can crib up a bit here

Red/Blue Quiz

Me? 10/10 of course!

naturally... all those times the Reds have lost must be etched in your memory...

maybe some truth in that Loopy, but the one that has really counted went the reds way ...

a very mini meet it was too ... but YYYYEEEEESSSSSS!!!

Stormin game, yet another biggy goes red !

We watched the match at home, the second half was really exciting.

So Maaph, the ball is in your court now to open a thread about a meet-up for the footy on 10th June...
