Scots Rugby Fans in London

[Nevin]

Do you know of any good sized pubs nr Covent Garden for watching the rugby where we won't get beaten up too much for celebrating Scotland's Calcutta Cup victory this weekend?

Have about 14 friends coming down and need somewhere that won't be too packed.

Isn't that an oxymoron?

Is this place actually any good. I've never heard anything positive about it. It is an option though, so cheers for that.

IT is horrific (but good enough for Scots ).

There is a walkabout and a springbok pub around Covent Garden also the Maple leaf - The Aussies, South Africans and Canadians are always a good bunch to watch the rugby with.

Is that in-keeping with our diversity policy?

May give the other pubs mentioned a try as well Jinx, cheers.

With the added advantage for you that they all hate the England team too, so they'll be kindred spirits. Mind you, I think that I could say that about every other rugby playing nation under the sun - seems to be the one thing they all have in common.

Bloody serfs and minions who resent the Mother Country that spawned them as a matter of principle, pathetic really...

Aah, now if that is showing the rugby that'll be ideal. Quite like their range of beers.

Or you could nip over to Twickenham - the Tup's good and you should be guaranteed a great atmosphere.
