Aston Villa v Liverpool Sun 31 Aug (k.o. 1700 CET; 0100+1d AusEST)


Well if anyone still has the stomach "tiene las agallas" (and heart) for watching some more live LFC match action - we should be in the Triskel as usual for this one (live on UK Sky Sports 1).

If that changes we will let you know.

Liverpool v Standard Liege Wed 27 Aug (k.o. 2105 CET; 0505 +1d AusEST)


Well, we went on a Madrid Merry-go-Round "tiovivo" looking for the Middlesbrough game on Saturday (we finally found it in pub No.3, The Irish Rover, on IRISH Setanta Sports 1 as expected). By the way, thank you Carra & Stevie!

It looks like the MADrid REDS will be back in the Triskel Tavern for this game, which is apparently on good old UK ITV1.

[I'll be landing in a far off country 15 minutes after kick-off, so I hope to find an open pub full of Reds somewhere to see the end of the game. Maybe I will try here...]

Liverpool v Middlesbrough Sat 23 Aug (k.o. 1600 CET)

________

***Update***

The nice people at the James Joyce told us that they will be showing the game, but they apparently don't have the right TV Channel...

Moore's - c/Barcelo 1 - Metro: Tribunal - Tel: +34915326331 - say that they can DEFINITELY show it... ¡nos vemos allí!

________________________

Well it seems that some people are back in town for this game, however, the TV signal might still be relaxing in some guiri chiringuito on the costas.

As far as we know, this game is being shown on Setanta Sports 1 (Republic of Ireland only) so we need to make some enquiries to find a pub showing it. If we can't find a pub, we hope to have an emergency plan so that we can see the game. Watch this space, an update will follow...

Boro fans kindly inform us that least 2 out of the 3 Olympians Babel(yes), Lucas(?) and Mascherano(?) should be back at Anfield for this game, depending on the Olympic semi-final outcome between Brazil and Argentina.

Sunderland v Liverpool Sat 16 Aug (k.o. 1830 CET)



Not many of us are in Madrid for this one (we're "haway") - but there should be a couple of lost souls in the Triskel Tavern. If that changes, we will let you know.

Live on Setanta Sports 1 (and "Pink Montenegro" if you happen to be able to receive it).

Standard Liege v Liverpool Wed 13 Aug (k.o. 2005 CET)





For anyone still left in Madrid this early-August Wednesday, we will be at the Triskel Tavern for this game - or Moore's Tribunal nearby if the Triskel is closed and at the beach. Full location details at top right hand corner of the homepage here.
