    Hello fellow Gooners,

    I just wanted to introduce myself ... another Arsenal supporter from Connecticut. I live in Waterbury and work in the Oxford/Southbury area. Since I have FSC, Setanta (and GolTV) at home, I usually just stay home for matches, but would certainly consider heading out to join a spirited crowd for bigger matches.

    I hope to meet some of you at these sites/locations mentioned, as we get closer to trophy-winning time in the coming months!!

    See ya,
    Mike

    Let me know how it is at Rowley's! I won't be able to make it today... have to rely on my computer. I'll be very curious how many folks go there to watch THFC-AFC.

    Honestly, for the first leg it was pretty much my buddy and I watching it. One other guys showed up who said the last match he went to was the 71 Cup final. But that was about it. It's more of a place that has Setanta than an actual get together place

    Yes, they will have it. You may have to ask them to put it on though

    Tigin's will be showing the game on Saturday, $10 cover.

    I have a wake Saturday morning in Port Chester, so I might go to Tigin's right after.

    ...I'll be the guy in the suit who looks like he just left a wake.

    So is anyone going?

    id be quite nice to watch the match with someone who knows about football. Last time, against sp*rz, i was surrounded by 4 people who kept asking questions about what the CC is, what the PL is, etc, etc....

    Not going, as my Setanta is now up and running!
    Tigin's will be a better atmosphere (seeing as though Rowley's will not be open until 11am!) But Tigin's usually has a better crowd, there are 5-10 locals and ex-pats who are in there for Arse games. They know what's going on and converse on a good level.

    I too will be watching tomorrow morning on SetantaBB. But I'm due for a pub outing. I'm hoping to coerce my ManU friend to join me somewhere on Feb.16. Probably Tigin's, but maybe... Rowley's.

    This pub/restaurant down the street from me in Norwalk. On Post Rd & Scribner, near Exit 14 of I-95.

    Haven't seen footy there but CTGooner has. No way it'll have the attendance that Tigin's has, but I may give it a try one of these days, espec.if I know of other gooner(s) going. :)

    Any folks further north have plans for Saturday? Tigins/Rowley's might be a bit of a haul... 2 hours is a little much for me :p

    Edit: What channel is it on anyway? FSC isn't showing the match until Tuesday or something stupid like that...

    I'm planning on Tigin's w/ my ManU buddy. Did anyone call them to confirm what it's going to cost?

    They were the first place I called. Because it's PPV, they're not showing it :(
    I ordered it for myself. Oh well.
