Dublin Bars

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

Just saying is all, we've dropped 7 places in the space of a year

I'm sure if you saw this next year we'd probably be even further down

Hard to believe Dublin is only one spot behind Paris - which I record as phenominally dear :shock: Rome as well and Hong Kong. How Dublin can be dearer than those two beats me :?

Good craic so tis!

Also if you head to O'Carroll's Irish giftshop in Westmoreland St, they sell authentic retro Arsenal shits (same as on me signature) complete with number 7 on the back - great value for €25.

yeah... just don't wander into the wrong areas (plural) or pubs (again, plural) or you will get kicked to death by a mob because you believe in a slightly different version of the same religion... :roll:

Better looking women in Belfast??!! Better than where, mate? A junkie housing estate in Manchester??!! I worked on and off in Northern Ireland for years and Belfast is one of the biggest kips I've ever been in, most of the women are dogs, the locals are (mostly) seriously unfriendly and they have a bigger victim complex than the Scousers!!

Also one of the most racist and sectarian cities I've ever been in.
