Heading to newcastle next month and just wondering if anyone knows of any good niteclubs and pubs specifically to go to.  Have been a few times before but cant remember too many of them.  Buffolo Joes was always a good spot but have heard its now in liquadation.

Also any irish bars which will show the rugby or national league games on a saturday evening.  O'Neills is the only one that i no of.

I'd be of the opinion that Mayobridge would beat that Down XV quite comfortably.

It's one thing experimenting, but this isn't experimenting, it's a waste of time.

+1. Totally agree, there are players starting who would struggle to get their place on the Bridge team.

Rediculous statement. 

Firstly I dont no much about Bonny, McCartan, Magee or Duggan and to write them off without even giving them a chance is harsh in the extreme.  It is a glorified friendly against a university side and is ideal to have a look at these boys.  Yes maybe a springling of more seasoned players would be better but given that 5 out of the starting 6 defense from last year are unavailable there wasnt much choice.  Also an extra break for the bridge and burren players who got barely a months break will not do any harm.

Secondly am i missing something are have the bridge suddenly become the harlam globetrotters.  id like to no who all of that team wouldnt get near the bridge team.  The bridge wernt beating to many club teams "comfortably " last year never mind a county select all be an experimental one.

Agree with the point on the ticket prices, absolute disgrace in the current climate especially.
