Sundays game in Helmsdale

[Lje1969]

Workmate heading up there for a few days and was looking for a Rangers friendly pub to watch the game on Sunday, can anyone help?

 

[Northhiglander]

Only two pubs in Helmsdale and doubt either have the game on.

Used to go to school camp in Helmsdale, if there's a 40 year old ginger kid with a mum called Wendy tell him his dad says hi.

Around 30 or so miles from Wick so maybe best to drive there?

 

[Lje1969]

Thanks, will let him know

 

[Northhiglander]

Wick will have Wetherspoons which will be mixed. Avoid Queens.

Surely there will be one pub between Golspie, Brora and Helmsdale showing it.

 

[Georgethegersfan]

Go and pan for gold and take a carry out and radio

 

[Ibroxkev]

Thanks, will let him know

Only a 15mm drive to Brora. He’ll find a pub there

 

[RotterdamBear]

Erm if you want to go the other direction im sure Embo camp site shows it in the wee bar

 

[Jaki Suds]

Only one pub in Brora and it's a dump, head to Golspie and go to Golspie Inn first hotel
if you are coming from Helmsdale - it'll be mixed however it will be sound though

My uncle is from Helmsdale . He played for Brora Rangers and I reckon that makes him the best player they ever produced

He was the year above my mum at Helmsdale school, and he played football around the same time my dad played. Is he still in Inverness?

Yes, still in the same house.

Is this not where Edwin Collins stays? Doubt he will be watching but you could pop in for an Orange Juice.

You really don't have a lot of option in that area. Is say Golspie would be your best shot but its about 15 miles down from Helmsdale and you'd be lucky to get a taxi. I'd definitely be ringing the pubs and asking first.

Left in 83.

 

[Saturnblue]

Just knock on random front doors and ask if you can watch it in someone's house.

Left in 76 mate

I'm sure they are a bar in Brora called the "Bears Den", can't be called that and no even show the match.

Not sure either pub in Golspie will show the game. Fairly sure Brora won’t either.

There's no need for that sort of thing.

Trying to trick someone into going to Wick is poor form.

Down with this sort of thing.
