Football: Spurs vs. Gooners - local derby day

Toytown Germany > Discussion forum > North Germany > Berlin > Events and meetups

Just got to Berlin and was wondering if there are any Spurs fans about that were getting together, or would be interested in getting together, to watch the derby on the 15th? Maybe you could recommend a good place to watch it too? Strictly no Gooners!

Oh no, I hate to think who might post a rude message after me!!!

Spanightickle might regret writing such an agressive message about no Gooners!!!
globalgirl
uh oh...

I'm sure that Mark will be showing the game at Hairy Mary's... I would have loved to join you watch Spurs kick ARSEnal's ARSE but I'll be watching a far more important game in Paris on the Friday: England v South Africa rugby world cup!

Well, you go to Hairy Mary's and I shall stay well out of your way. And welcome to Berlin BTW. How very nice and friendly of you to exclude other friendly ex pats before even meeting any of us. Enjoy your stay...

I'm an Oxford fan (No comments please wink.gif, but have a soft spot for Arsenal.. wouldn't mind watching it with both Tottinghams and Arsenals...

I think he just doesn't want us there as he knows his team are going to lose and wants to sulk in private and not get the pee taken! Bless...
Spanishtickle
Jeez, bit touchy here aren't we?! If Gooners want to show up that's fine, it'll only end in tears! So, is this Hairy Mary's a good place to go? Is it cheap? Does it have a lot of screens etc?
gooner_gal
Now that would be telling wouldn't it wink.gif

Where to watch televised football (soccer) are some suggestions as to where to watch. I wouldn't call Hairy's a sports bar as there's a telly in the corner. But for a few (too many) drinks it's great biggrin.gif

I think we could have a problem. It appears that New Zealand are taking on Portugal at the egg-chasing event in France at the same time as the derby. Can these places show both events at the same time only I can't really carry an argument with a rugby crowd over who decides what's on the telly! I'm torn between Oscar Wilde's and the Emerald Isle.
gooner_gal
I can call the Emerald Isle and ask if she will reserve a table for me (and maybe some friends = no Spuds wink.gif) The Oscar Wilde can, as far as I am aware, show more than one event at once. I have never watched footie there as it outta my way! As long as the game is shown on Premiere it shouldn't be a problem.

I'm also a Spurs fan but won't be in Berlin for the derby, in fact i'll be back here in Frankfurt where I live.. Bit of a random related post, I am off to Berlin this afternoon for some business meetings tomorrow but will be hanging around for the weekend to do some sightseeing and chilling out etc etc.

Saturday is obviously a pretty busy sporting day what with the rugby and also the international footy, can anyone recommend a decent english/irish pub to watch the England game etc etc?

I am staying in Prenzlauer Berg on fri and sat night.

Any shouts much appreciated!

How close are these pubs to Wilmersdorf?

I will be up there for the Touch Rugby championships and am tempted to slip away to watch Spurs get a good hiding
Spanishtickle
I can't believe how many Gooners there are here, what's wrong with all of you! No taste. In response to the Spurs fan above, Oscar Wilde's would be a good place to watch sport this weekend, I went there today and it's easy to find and pretty big.
Come Spurs fans, get involved, you know we're going to win!

yes, out of 8 people posting on a topic about spurs v arsenal there are 2 arsenal fans (me and gooner girl) and one with a "soft spot". That's loads that is huh.gif .

Your ability with numbers makes you an obvious Spurs fan as only you lot could spend 40 million quid to achieve fewer points than last year!

Anyhow, wilmersdorf and closest place to watch the match...anybody - please (with a cherry on top!)?
gooner_gal
Lassie...where in Wilmersdorf? The Oscar Wilde is here near Oranienburgerstraße S-Bahn. The Old Emerald Isle is here close to, erm...well, no S-Bahn. The nearest UBahn is Kottbusser Tor and it's a 5 minute walk. To be honest if you have time to "pop" into town then Oscar Wilde would probably be your best bet. Otherwise I'll save you a seat at the Isle...

You need Jimbo on this thread to even the odds a bit.
evilbill
sod all that - where's the really important game this weekend being shown? (Scotland-Lithuania sports fans.)
Spanishtickle
Actually, does anyone even know if the derby is on German tv? To my amazement none of the British networks are showing it despite it starting at 12:45pm bst. I tried premiere.de but they don't seem to be showing it and I don't know enough about German TV to check anywhere else.
gooner_gal
Head up in case anyone is planning on heading over to the Old Emerald Isle - they aren't showing it the swines!
EbonyClungeBuster
I'll be there. Anyone getting tooled up?

Final Score- Gooners 3 - 1 Shylocks. HA HA HA

Enjoy mid table mediocrity, spuds fans.
