Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I see that a few of today's Scottish papers have Cowdenbeath down to play Linfield in a pre-season friendly at Windsor Park. The game will take place at Clandeboye Park in Bangor, due to the ongoing work at Windsor Park, but Bangor is a lovely wee town that is well worth a visit if anyone is thinking of going over for the game. It is a short train ride from Belfast and I am happy to hook any Blue Brazil fans up for a few drinks in one of the Linfield clubs if you are interested?

Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 If you want any help about places to go/avoid, or anything at all, then just PM me. Hope you have a good trip and enjoy your time in the failed statelet, and try and keep that manager of yours away from the Guinness, he's rather fond of it? I expect you'll win as we have a new manager and he is certainly shaking the club up. Lots of comings and goings so they will all be getting to know each other. Here's why it won't be at Windsor Park, http://www.linfieldfc.com/stadiumredevelopment.asp?id=12120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny graham Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Just looked at photo of pitch. Looks in better condition than boghead used to be come winter time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 As a resident of Bangor may I suggest the following pubs....Fealtys ,Donnegans The Windsor or The Goats Toe. The closest pub to Clandeboye Park is the Ava which is about a 15 minute walk from the ground. I may even head down to cheer the Blue Brazil on against what I refer to as "The Rangers Tribute Act" (although may leave the Glentoran scarf at home ) ,you'll like Bangor and Belfast ,will get a good night out in both and will be made to feel very welcome.

Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 What hotel have you lot gone for? Days is one of the cheapest and most centrally located, but there are loads of others. You have the option of bus or train for Bangor. Link to aerial shot of Clandeboye Park below. http://www.footballgroundmap.com/ground/clandeboye-park/bangor Don't believe a word Co Down Hibee says - he's a Glumtoran cnut Seriously though - he's right, you will have a warm welcome and a great time.
