Plenty of pubs around the main square will have it on Big Tone, I was out there for City v Villa earlier this season, Fat Harry's is a big pub 10/20 yards off of the square, they'll have it on, but you'll have plenty of choice! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard there is a huge Man Ure following on the island so am sure I will find the game on somewhere. Will troll the bloody place to find it on TV if needs be.

This trip is a bit of a pressie for the Wife who has been amazing while I have travelled twice to Oz on my own in the past year to visit my 93 year old folks who are unwell. Apart from that my constant travelling for work. She has been a colossus. Pity about the sanctimonious kids who don't give a shit if it does'nt benefit them. Sorry I'm off on a rant. She is unaware that I have booked a cruise for Chrimbo 2018. She deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try and get over to Gozo too if you can, it`s like going fifty years back in time and has better scenery than the main island IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackofromSanJavier Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Mrs Jacko and I visited Malta and Gozo with a view to retiring there. Beautiful places, but a tad religious. If we'd have plumped for there I suspect that I'd have got myself excommunicated within the hour! So, Spain it is then! Have a good'un out there 'Mr Big'.

Gozo is where I visit when I go over. Have a couple of friends there. Agree on the religious side, but it's not that bad.

Anywhere that has a screen will be showing the game, and the Maltesers will all be out in their finest replica kits. To be fair, they do actually live nearer to Manchester than most ManYoo supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
