jmothecat Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I'm going to be in central Edinburgh this afternoon and want to find somewhere to watch the Aberdeen game, which will have the sound on. Any recommendations? A quick scan of Google and pubs are specifically advertising the English Premiership games but not sure where will be showing the Scottish Premiership game. Thought it could be useful to have a thread where people can suggest good pubs in towns and cities across Scotland for watching Scottish football for visitors or people who don't know certain towns and cities that well.

I might just go there anyway though as at least I know they show games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Edinburgh and everything but the city centre is terrible for prioritising the EPL over Scottish football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aberdeen game starts an hour before the EPL games, just ask them to put it on and hopefully there will be enough people watching to stop them turning over.
