Most bars will have it on. Scarlette's is a good bet in Emirates Towers, Longs Bar? They are all down Sheik Zayed Road

Who are the Lions?

If someone answers me that they are a rugby team I will roast them alive!!!

My question means, what country or city or league do they play for and if they are any good.

Personally I do not like rugby and I dislike American football even more (soccer which is the REAL football rules in my opinion). But I would like to say that as sports go, Rugby is more real simply because there is no padding (other than a jockstrap I hope) and real sports are ones that are played using what God gave us for strength and padding, not more not less.

So thats why I do not like American football. Hockey has a lot of padding too but one needs it because that puck can cause quite a bit of damage :D

But I most definately digress :wink:

Thank you yorky500 - i will have a look when i am there - do you think they will be open at that time?

in answer to the other - rather strange reply - the Lions a team made up of the best British & Irish players. They get together every 4 years and tour to either NZ, Aus or SA. This time to NZ. There are 10 games including 3 test matches against the All Blacks. It promises to be a very good series. I wont get into the debate about which sport is more [i]real![/i]
