FORTHCOMING MATCH – ASTON VILLA!

Ahead of City’s eagerly anticipated match against former boss Paul Lambert’s Aston Villa team, the more sociable kick off time presents probably the last chance for a while (with UK clocks changing) to get some proper meets going for the game. We’re keen to get something sorted in Melbourne and Perth this time, as well as getting people back together in Adelaide and Auckland. The usual hardy bunch will be meeting in Brisbane (details to follow), and hopefully the same in Sydney. Get chatting on the forum over the next couple of days and we’ll attempt to announce meet details on Wednesday.

NEW MEETS!

The QLD Canaries are again meeting at the Pig n Whistle on Riverside for the West Ham game this Saturday at 9pm. Can we be a the 10 that turned out last time? Looks like we might!

Sydneysiders – now is your time! We’re meeting at Dicks on Beattie Street in Balmain from 8:30pm. Should be a good atmosphere, so get talking about it on the message board.

Auckland guys – how about the Spitting Feathers on Wyndham Street? Again, get involved on Facebook and we’ll try and get something together.

Suggestion for Adelaide is The Rosemont Hotel (160 Hindley Street), and open to ideas for Melbourne and Perth.

Finally, going out on a limb, anyone interested in watching in Queenstown you should drop us a line on canariesdownunder@gmail.com!

  1. Hi, I do think your website could be having internet browser compatibility
    issues. When I take a look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine however,
    when opening in IE, it’s got some overlapping issues. I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Aside from that, great website!

    • Hi Jake. Melbourne is one that we haven’t really got off the ground yet but are really keen to get something going. As you’ve signed up to the site we will keep you posted on any potential Melbourne meets, but our Facebook forum is the place to start getting an interest going. Cheers, Mark.

  2. let’s all hope for a good win to really get our season going. looking forward to seeing a big Norwich turput in the Pig n Whistle tonight. Letsbe Avenue!
