Forum to enable fans to provide help and tips on travel arrangements to away matches, as well as for opposition fans travelling to the Irish capital for matches.
Please not that one of the pubs was originally given it's old name- me being rather foolish, sorry!
1pm Sloanes 1
2pm Café René 2

Sloanes, Brunswick Rd. is opposite the road entrance to the big multi storey car park.
Café René, Greyfriars, Southgate St. is through an archway opposite the Golden Cross pub. They'll be an A board by the archway.
The Fountain, Westgate St. is through an alleyway opposite KFC, they'll be an A board there too.
The Gate (formally known as Kings), Northgate St. is on the corner of Hare Lane (very easy to find).
The Jockey and Teagues are opposite the main entrances to the GRFC ground. On my map above follow Worcester St, over a crossroads it becomes Kingsholm Road, they're there.
As you may have guessed, Gloucester centre is split into 4 main roads, North, South, East and Westgate St. It's very easy to find your way about.
The Cathedral is just off Westgate St. Just above the 3 on my map.
If people are up for coming, and judging by the original thread then people are, then great. I would have recommended some more, well Gloucester, pubs, but they are a lot smaller, and might have struggled. Please feel free to drink anywhere in Gloucester (except lower Eastgate St.) without fear of trouble! I'll try and promote this to as many Gloucester supporters as I can as well.
THanks Jim, you're certainly setting up the welcome. THe board is very quiet tonight they must be all ironing their jerseys and oiling the bodhrans. Make yourself known to us!
Well, that was a success I think. Crawled in at about 5am this morning, the head ache has now gone, and more rugby to watch on the telly.
If I was asleep in Café René when anyone left, then sorry. I fall asleep in there all the time!
Was a great night, cheers to the guys that bought me a whiskey.
Hope to do it all again soon.
Fair focks to you Jim for all the hospitality. Have to say that I was really impressed by the Glaws fans. Lots of great banter and craic, great fans great people!
