G'day all
just want to vent my frustration and disgust about my saturday night excursion during round 1 to watch the dogs and Panthers at 7:30pm
Wandered down one of the locals in the city about 7:45pm to find that both it's big screens were playing Union and a few clowns were, or at least appeared to be watching it. I asked the doorman if they had league on anyway and he haplessly replied in a south african accent he didn't know and I could ask at the bar to change the channel. There was no seats and I didn't feel the need to upset the 5 or less tossers that looked to be watching the Union so I figured the next pub 100 metres away would serve me fine and this particular place could lose our business for being Union viewing F@#^wits
Wander into the next pub to find they have union on the big screen, being watched by 2 guys, and 5 little tvs strewn around showing the league on Fox1. Ended up we watched most of the game on one of the smaller screens while the Union wankers watched their farcical rubbish
mid last year I asked a barmaid to change to fox1 because no-one was watching the Yawnion (suprise surprise) and she said " no it's state of origin" I said "what?!" she said yes it's a big game (NSW vs QLD Union). I tried to explain to her that only league has state of origin that matters but she was confused and adamant that the rugby no-one was watching had to stay on
So my questions/ problems to you all are:
* Is Sydney city so pissweak that the worst sport of all will take pride of place on all, or the biggest Tvs in each place?
* Is it possible it was just a round one snafu and the publicans will get their Tvs put on the correct channel next week?
* Is it a conspiracy theory that there tend to be chicks behind the bar at these places and they are incapable of selecting the correct sport
* I'm going to travel to the Uk at the end of this year for a year or two, will I be coming back to a country that puts Union as the pride of place Saturday pub sport? will they even be serving beers?!
down with Sydney city pubs and the clueless metro dickheads that staff them, and down with Union. :x
Not happy
