Don’t be surprised if you see a few folks slip away from work for a late, late lunch today and head in the direction of Flanagans Harp and Fiddle on Cordell Avenue. Most likely they are going to watch the resumption of the UEFA Champions League with David Beckham’s AC Milan taking on the team where he became a star, Manchester United (for non fans, the Champions League is the largest club level soccer tournament in the World. European sides compete for the privilege of being crowned champions of the continent).
If you haven’t caught any of the Champions League games at Flanagans before, I encourage you to head over there today or for another match day later in the Spring (don’t worry we will make sure we keep you updated). Flanagan’s is a terrific place to grab some comfort food and take in the game. The staff are friendly and will look after you and the experience when the soccer is on (or the rugby for that matter) is good fun.
So, let us know if you make it there today or are keen to head to Flanagans for another match day some time in the future.
For today’s games I will be cheering for AC Milan and in the other big game hoping that Lyon can beat Real Madrid!

Flanagan’s is a fun place to watch soccer matches. If you can, I would definitely recommend taking that “late lunch” or long afternoon walk (to stretch those legs of course)! Here’s hoping that Manchester United win today!

I hope the red devils will pull it through today in the game against milan,too bad about the new owner and the glazer family casting a bad light over the great club, but that still don’t ruin the excitement for me.
