    Just came across the site while surfing the net and have to say how impressed I was.

    I have been a Fulham Fan since the late 1980's.

    Unfortunately I don't get to every game (I live in the "potteries" the largest town being Stoke-on-Trent) which is between Birmingham & Manchester.

    I have Tickets for the Sheffield Utd & Chelsea Games and am looking forward to a great season.

    Will be in the Sates in October visiting North Carolina and Taking in a couple of Toby Keith Shows.

    Does anyone know of any bars within the Raleigh/Charlotte area that show Premiership Football? If so please could they let me know

    Welcome aboard Jimmy,
    Here are a few pubs in Charlotte to take in some Premiership action:

    NC Big Ben's
    Charlotte Fox Soccer Channel Subscriber

    NC Ri-Ra Irish Pub
    Charlotte Fox Soccer Channel subscriber

    NC Connolly's
    115 E. 5th Street
    (704) 358-9070
    Charlotte A good Irish pub in uptown Charlotte where Fox Soccer Channel is the only thing on TV. The most soccer oriented bar in Charlotte

    The three above are Fox Soccer Channel pubs. These next few have the Setanta channel. Both Fox Soccer Channel and Setanta have Premiership matches. The best would be to find a pub with both. As the time gets closer, I can help you out more with telling you what matches will be shown, etc.

    Thanks for the tips guys. Just hope that there are no problems travel wise across the atlantic following today's shocking events here in the UK. :x

    Just don't know what the world is coming to.

    Still won't put me off visiting your country though. We have been fortunate enough to travel to the US every year since 2001 for our main vacation and never had any problems in the past.

    I will certainly look in on some of the bars you suggest whilst I'm in the area. :D
