Wasnt expecting a replay in the AI final, and have a prior engagement on sat 1st october, belfast city centre
Is there a bar centrally that will show the game? Ive seen a thread before on here but cannot find it... aware it will be tricky task without travelling west, or south
thankfully no evening premier league match to compete with, but ulster rugby play at 630
Any help appreciated folks.

I'd the same issue a few weeks ago. From what I can make it, it depends who's working behind the bar that day. Friend watched full game with commentary in Hudson one week, but we were looked at if we'd two heads when we asked.

Garrick likely would have shown it, but there was a good crowd of us so too cramped. Ended up watching in the Kitchen bar beside Victoria Square.

Watched All Ireland Hurling Semi Final in Brennans bar just opposite the Europa, albeit with no commentary as the Charity Shield was also been shown at the time

The Parador on the Ormeau road would definately be showing it I'd say

Have caught games before in the kitchen and on the big screen just in the main door to the left though I see they have the Pro12 as a featured sport so not sure how that will work though I think the Ulster game starts 1 1/2 hours after the AI final starts.

If you want to be sure I would head South to the Botanic Inn - in reality it is only a 20 min walk from the city centre but closer in a taxi but at least you will be guaranteed to see and hear the game and should be a fair few followers in there also.

That said it will probably be on in the Garrick though it can get a bit tight for space or the Hatfield on the Ormeua Road should be a pretty good bet.

You'll be at home in the Parador. Its like a clubhouse for Bredagh GFC.

Thanks all. Id never thought of the Garrick but i took a glance at their facebook page, and they advertised sundays AIF, so id assume they will do likewise for the replay. Fingers crossed anyway.
