    Thought a thread on Pubs to watch the upcoming Euros would be a good idea, not just for myself but for anyone else who is stuck on where to watch it!!!!

    Could people recommend places on

    A) family friendly pubs, for those of us who are stuck with the kids !!

    B) Quality and prices of drinks etc ( special offers during game time etc )

    Anyway you get the drift of where i am going with this, so over to you !!!!!

    Unless your kids are 18 and over I really wouldn't bother. Get some cans in the fridge and watch from the comfort of your front room.

    It's a mare in most pubs when England play in major tournaments.
    You can't get served and it's always over crowded. I struggle to look after myself so looking after kids as well during an England game would be a no no for me.

    Sorry to be a spoil sport.

    Welcome newbie. Now please tell me where you intend going with your kids cos i cant stand kids anywhere near me when im in pub.

    I was asking for recommendations for Newland Ave the other week and someone mentioned Larkins. So me and Mrs R booked a table for 8:30, goes in and theres two big family groups in there 3-4 kids in each group!! Swotty little Tristan's too holding a menu. Disgusted. I go out to get away from my own little bleeders not listen to some one elses.

    Went straight out.

    Last two World Cups I've gone to Piper for every England game. Massive screen you see.

    That's the only plus.

    It's a total dive as it is, come World Cup/Euros time it fills up with the worst of the worst. During the World Cup, someone got glassed not too far away from me. Scuffles breaking out all over the place, stools being flung about. Not to mention it is impossible to get to the toilet/bar/exit/seat without squeezing through hundreds of people for a good 10 minutes.

    On the day of the Germany 4-1, I was in there, great vantage point, with my friends, 4-pint jug purchased. The teams are in the tunnel, about to come out. I feel a shove behind me, then I'm getting pushed forward hard, I look behind and it's just a chaotic melee of fists, foreheads and stools. Ridiculous. Bouncers flying in from all over, blood everywhere. A joke.

    Don't go in Piper. Full of scum.

    depending on where you are Goodfellowship used to be good when i lived near there, used to open up a backroom especially set up for it...
    watched some great England games in there like the 5-1 v Germany..
    then they started selling out a bit and having weddings and **** like that in the room, so it wasnt always as good..

    Chaz, I wasnt specifically after reccomendations !!!! Was after peoples opinions of venues, like Party Hulls post..

    If you dont want to go to a family venue, then don't...

    Im actually away in the sun for the first two games so doubt very much we will be in the same place !!!

    I will regale you all with one last story of Piper before I get my tea on (lord knows I'm hungered).

    I was once trapped, face-to-face, with a full size, in tact, odious turd in a sink.

    In Piper.

    I went for a piss, as you do on a night out. Queues, queues, queues. The first pissable pot to vacate was the disabled toilet. Anyone who has used this will know it comes complete with it's own mini-sink. For washing ones hands in, I should imagine.

    So why then would someone **** in it???

    I was stood there, pissing, and I thought "****ing hell somone's having a bad ****". It got bad quick, and I couldn't understand how it could feel/smell so close whilst being a poo in progress in another cubicle. I know some people's guts are bad, but Jesus, this was summink else!

    Finished piss, shook cock, zipped fly. "Right, let's get out of this ****ty stinking hellhole" I thought.

    Turn to wash hands and there it is, looking at me. If it had a face it would have been smirking. Or breathing its foul breath at me whilst boasting about being fully grown, or something.

    And it ****ing stunk!

    What do you do then? If I just walk out, someone goes in after me and will think I'm the sink-****ter. I'm not happy about that, I have a reputation to uphold. I pondered for minute...and did it anyway.

    Seem to recall pissing in there later on and there was no longer a trace of the poo. Someone must have picked it up and put in the bog themselves. For that, they deserve a CBE.

    Or the staff did it...I prefer to think it was a 'have a go hero' member of the public.

    End of story.

    Great story. I once shat in a bucket but that was through necessity and wasn't in a public place.
    It was in my garage.
    In fact it was an empty paint pot, not a bucket.

    That was bad enough but a sink ???

    Takes a special kind of debased animal to be able to do that.

    Thats a class pub story. I was once in Bass House, and as older readers will recall the ladies was always a big queue. So i went to the mens and theres a bird having a p1ss in the trough, the trough!! Dirty old boiler.

    3 other munters came out of the sit down toilet, said hag just went i couldnt fukin wait. Didnt even wash her hands either.

    I think, as im desperate to have a sticky, we should have a pub stories one.
