New York Sports Bar

Loads of them - look them up on the net to suit the one nearest your location. Often a cover charge (or used to be a couple of years ago). Irish bars in particular used to advertise heavily. They nearly all have access now with the result "fans" are spread out and don't congrgate that much.

Difficult to recommend any as its really not that much fun. The thing is lots of British people who are over there permanently and are interested will have Fox now and watch at home because the matches are obviously on early at the weekend, so very little atmosphere (9-10am!, then 1-2pm for evening matches!)- very few around to watch and the natives obviously have zero interest.

Little bit better for Champions League games sometimes - closing stages, or else Celtic and/or Rangers involved.....drunken Scots/Irish, but at least they make some noise....for CL you'd also have some Spanish/Italian/Germans etc there.

Feel like a party-pooper - but that was my experience.

Stoute is a good bar -LOTS OF SCREENS - you can book private booths too if there's a few of you.
It's just near Madison Square Garden.

I like it and will be back again this year.
