Start Off Your Sporting Summer by Nailing Down Your Pub for Euro 2012

LONDON, June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

This summer, find EURO 2012 pubs with MatchPint - the UK's number one sports pub finder.

As excitement builds ahead of the EURO 2012 kick-off, thousands of thirsty football fans are trawling up and down the UK in search of the best pubs in which to watch the drama unfold. Already, questions and theories are being analysed over cold ones at the bar: Will Roy's revolution be a success? Can anyone beat Spain? Does Stewart Downing actually know how to play football? When the tournament starts in earnest, however, fans will want to ensure that not a moment goes by without their eyes glued to the screen.

For a miniscule number of UK residents, a tiny little screen and a six-pack of tinnies at home will have to suffice. Largely speaking, these are people who have picked up near-fatal injuries playing Ultimate Frisbee in Regents Park, or gingers who can no longer move on account of the terrible sun burn picked up in the country's recent heat-wave.

For the rest of the UK's football fans, however, the hunt for pubs showing EURO 2012 starts now. Two questions will be on these explorers' lips, though. How do I know which games will be shown by each pub, and how do I find out if the pub has a beer garden for me to enjoy the sun in?

The answer is, of course, MatchPint. The website and free iPhone app tell punters exactly which EURO 2012 pubs will be showing which matches. Naturally, almost every pub and bar in the land will be showing England vs. France, but what about Holland vs. Denmark, or Italy vs. Croatia? Because pubs and bars themselves update the fixture schedules, if a pub is listed under a particular match, the game will definitely be on - no more running around looking for somewhere to watch the game in the rain.

Furthermore, punters can look through the list of bars and pubs showing EURO 2012 and find out if they have gardens, whether the commentary will be on, or even, whether the pub has an outdoor screen to watch whilst puffing away on a stogie and sipping a thirst-quenching yard of cider.

As well as finding the perfect pub for football, MatchPint can also help you find pubs to watch International Rugby, Test Cricket, Formula 1 Grand Prix, the Olympics and much more.
