Default Vancouver- Where to watch live soccer?

Morning all. Was wondering if there are any pubs in Vancouver which would be likely to show live EPL games over the Holidays?

Two games in particular:

Aston Villa vs. Arsenal which would kick off at 9:15 in Vancouver

Arsenal vs. Portsmouth which would kick off at 6:00 in Vancouver

Cheers in advance,

You'll need to get a pub that carries Setanta. Here is the preliminary schedule...good luck on the 6 am kickoff.

Is this page any help?

Will Arsene be able to see the play any better in upcoming games.?

Mate they're on pacific sportsnet on tv. Live one at 7am and other tape delayed at 9am. The Firkin on West Broadway used to show them.

I believe that the games in question are not being carried by Sportsnet....they are being carried by Setanta which is not shown in all pubs.

Hi

Try Doolins on Granville and Nelson.

Also as has been said the Frog and Firkin on W Broadway carries alot of UK sports.

I have been meaning to join Facbook.

As for the footy- The G Spot are open at 9am on Boxing Day so i am making a bee-line down there.

Merry X-Mas everyone and I hope your teams have a successful Yuletide- provided you are not a fan of: Liverpool; Chelsea; tottenham; Man Utd; Portsomouth or Aston Villa.
