    Somewhat annoyingly I'm unable to go the Wolves cup game due to being in Philadelphia. I know we have New York based Horns but is anyone aware of a Philly based Horn or where would be a place to see the match. I'm actually staying just north of the city in a place called Newtown but not convinced their bars will show it

    Did a quick search for you and found this place near the airport that looks like it would show the game. That's Trenton Airport though so a little trip for you.

    Seemed Trenton was a better bet though i reckon it might not be any easier to get to for you than Philly.

    This question was a lot of specific than the thread name had me expecting.

    I quite fancy the idea of getting a decent Wembley pre match pub, and then just staying there watching the game on TV

    Probably a better view than the high seats in the ground

    The way the online sales are going, this thread could become very important

    I could recommend a good sports bar in Wilmington Delaware where I spent a few drunken nights when I lived there but it mainly showed the Eagles and Phillies and the basketball and ice hockey team whatever they were called* and if I was still there I’m sure they would show the English soccer game, but I left 30 years ago!
    Hope this helps.
    :cool:

    * ( went to a couple of games live but I told my American friends I didn’t enjoy the deliberate aggressive smashing the oppo into the Perspex, - I said I prefer the more genteel art of cricket but no matter how hard I tried they couldn’t understand how someone was in, then out, etc and after 5 days there could be a ‘tie’, and no winner.
    Huh, stupid people). :D

    However, in all seriousness, I’m sure you could find a bar that shows the ‘soccer’ in Philly. They’re getting into this strange kicking-a-ball game, mainly due to the millions of S. American and European immigrants - just don’t tell DT.

    Searched for supporters bars for Philadelphia Union, it comes up with this: https://www.philadelphiaunion.com/fans/pubs

    They're probably a decent bet, unless our match clashes with theirs!
