p_stephan Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hi there, I am a student from Germany, currently enrolled in a student exchange program. Long story short: For some reason we ended up in the finals and you know, when you are in the finals you don't want to watch it in your house on the telly. Therefor I'd like to ask, where I could watch the match and get the best experience? In other words, at what place would I find lots ot my fellow countrymen and / or German supporters? Thank you very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grenoside123 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Show off! In short, I'm not sure but just wanted to say that despite being very jealous, you deserve to be in the finals and I think it's Germany's to loose really. Well done, have fun & good luck. Now how's that for some Brritish sportsmanship for you?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffly Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The Royal Standard has a core of German students that come in and watch the games, and we welcome all nationalities anyway We have 8ft big screen and cinema style sound. The address is The Royal Standard, 156 St Mary's Road, Sheffield, S2 4AX. It's near the leadmill and next to pure gym and the bottom of town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilge Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 You could send an email or 2 to someone at the uni German dept. They should know where germans in Sheff congregate. Maybe they even have an event planned for the final: http://www.shef.ac.uk/german/staff Good luck to you by the way you seem to have a proper 'team', Argentina maybe don't in the same way. ---------- Post added 11-07-2014 at 15:58 ---------- Actually at 4pm on a Fri maybe just ring the dept and see who answers the phone.

Ade65 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 University Arms - near to University, very good beers and sensible prices, and big screens; plus, they know students will want to watch the match there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoatwobbler Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Dunno about the best place from a German point of view but there is 1 venue in Rotherham which is hosting an evening with Ossie Ardiles for the world cup final tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossie's a legend as a player but not brilliant as a public speaker (in English anyway). But well done Rothingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
