places was meant to refer to cities as opposed to actual establishments , restaurants a different kettle of fish , but yeah I usually do google them TBH which is why is usually end up getting great meals - at least the last 2 trips

Only getting around to reflecting on the trip now as came back from Vienna and was away with work for the week the next morning.
Had been to Vienna before briefly when going to the Slovakia game in Zilina but have to echo the comments about it being a great city : Really regretted only heading out there early on Saturday morning (Something that defo caught up with me on Saturday night !!). Great effort from Big Podge and the lads at the fans game even though it was Baltic cold ! Charlie P's was good before the game : As mentioned, very good service. Obviously, the outcome of the game had a big bearing on the trip but I thought it was great to see the team play with confidence and believe they could win. 
Before the game, headed into the toilets and was joining in with the "He never cheats, he never lies..." song when some lad took exception to this and told us Delaney was great and we knew nothing : Took please in putting across my alternative opinion to him !
Headed into Flanagans after the game as Charlie's weren't letting anybody in : Was a good laugh in there. 
Already counting down the days to the next away trip !

Think maybe its time the auld lad n veteran traveller (as in me) left the two young lads (as in 2 sons) off on the lash on their own. I might google some OAP establishment next time.

PS on a serious note well done to GUFC and anyone else who highlighted Dubliner before. I didnt realise it was such a kip. LESSON LEARNED :)

Tis a real pity that you had that bad experience there but you are not the only 1, i think of all the places and bars the Irish fans have been this sh*thole is the only 1 to get bad reviews we are lucky enough that everywhere we go (bar that kip) we are well recieved and treated accordingly

Very good video put up by Charlie P's about the game day - Particularly enjoyed Sham talking about that fan's game that he didn't go to LOL
