Hi all

I watched a program a few weeks back that showed a couple of bars in New York that apparently show all the English Premier league games, but i can remember what there called! also the game we want to watch (WBA v Birmingham City) is on at 12 miday UK time so by my reckoning that is 6am in NYC!!! so will those bars even be open that early? Hope someone can help,

Cheers, Wayne

Watched the West Ham V Man U game whilst I was over in NYC,
Many bars show Prem league games - Not sure you'll get a feed at 7.00am though - We found two or three bars round the Lower East Side that all showed live games - Sorry I can't help with names, but they all blur together after a few - if you catch my drift :D

Funny thing that ive noticed with the Irish Bars in NYC is that they all serve "Irish Breakfast"! funny that its called and English breakfast everywhere else in the world! [:p]

My guess is that this oddity is due to the huge Irish population in NYC. Don't forget theirs is one of the largest, longest running St. Patty's Day parades anywhere!:D
