Funnily enough no it's das a team!! Don't suppose if anyone knows if there's a bar showing the Hibs game the morn in dusseldorf? There is an Irish bar in the Altstadt but I never managed to ask last night.

good luck. Wi scheiss Fortuna being the Monday night game, it would need to be one of Irish bars giving up a screen. Why you not heading to to the local Game anyway?? Decent one v league leaders....well they were last week if not just now.

[Frazerbob]

I've watched Scottish games in the wee Irish Bar on the corner in Alstadt before. Funnily enough I even met Matty Jack in there one time.

I'm in kolnmesse for the whole day. Got home at 20:15 tonight so I was gonna just head to a bar straight from the train tomorrow assuming the same sort of traffic. According to German TV Munich are leaders now.

Oreillys looks good but never got the chance to ask about the game. Gonna just head down there from the train station tomorrow, hopefully I'll get to see the Hibees, if no the there will be some fitba on.

Fortuna are in the wee Bundesliga - they're playing the spectacularly named SpVgg Greuther Fürth, who have been leading the 2. Bundesliga (second with a game in hand now).

I spoke to boltonhibs yesterday, and he was in Germany for the beer festival. I never asked where he was, but i'd have thought he'd be in Munich, but the attire you mention does sound like what he'd be wearing and with the drink he likes to swally he could have ended up anywhere?

That would have to be some detour, Düsseldorf fae Munich. That's like headin for the Braemar Highland Games and ending up in West Bromwich by accident.

Is his sense of direction really THAT bad?

:agree: We were driving home from a game one night, and missed the 702 turn off on the ring road, he said no problem we will just carry on down the A1 its south and we can cut across.

Its not much longer he said. :greengrin

The "Beer festival or Oktoberfest" is not restricted to Munich - they have them all over the place here (we even have one (at least) here in Berlin where they also all dress up in the Bavarian "style" (sic) ...)

[Craig_in_Prague]

BT Sport signal is now just recieveable in UK (unless a huge dish) so those in Germany might struggle to see it as well now.

[pacorosssco]

go to mclaughlins in altstadt, they will have at least one tv with the Hibs game

boy that runs it is friends with matty jack i think?, met them both at viteses friendly few years ago

[Future17]

Probably one of the Hibees who went to Essen via Dusseldorf in 2005 and hasn't made it back yet...

Possibly, not sure who the guvner is these days, it's a proper footie pub (although it does have a celtc supporters club) but I know there are a couple of Hibbees who drink there.

They also do snacks so maybe there is the Matty Jack roll?

Hope Fortuna win tonighght as well!!

[Oscar T Grouch]

No - even in Düsseldorf the time is only + 1 hour - KO will be at 20:45 local time!

You shouldn't have told him..

... it would serve him right for thinking that Düsseldorf is one hour out from the rest of Germany :wink:

Had many a night in Dusseldorf, usually resulting in not knowing what day it is never mind the time. Magic city!

[Drem]

Try the Knotten Bar in the Aldstadt.
Damn good bar and there's a great little Italian Restaurant just a hundred yards up the road from it.

I was there last year and there were 2 Irish pubs about 25 yards apart - I went into the one opposite the local bar with the tv showing outside :greengrin

It must be hard to decide between chasing a man in lederhosen, gobbling a sausage or watching a German dubbed film?

I presume you've told the wife it's a business trip?

[RyeSloan]

Fortuna are in the wee Bundesliga - they're playing the spectacularly named SpVgg Greuther Fürth, who have been leading the 2. Bundesliga (second with a game in hand now).

Watching that on telly in a Warsaw hotel just now...great game! The pace and quality is seriously impressive for a wee bundesliga game, if only the SPL was half as good we would be raving about it.!

2-1 to dussel just now but the furth are steaming forward and have managed to miss two sitters in 5 mins.
