Is there a United club anyone knows of?

Cheers - well there is a Canada wide one, but I think they are Toronto based and not bothered about any other city. Start one? There are more than enough fans who want to watch games and the Pig and Duke will show them for you. It isn't too hard. Twitter, Sports Forums, Facebook - get in touch with club in England. Thats all we did!!

Pinting Skulls with Crack is more my speed.

See above

For the Arsenal Supporters Club please see our Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/calgarygooners/

So you know we are Officially recognised by the Club:

Our Twitter Handle so you can find out when we watch games:
https://twitter.com/CalgaryArsenal

Please pass this info onto any Arsenal fan in Calgary. It's much better to watch the games with other fans than sitting at home!!!

I can vouch for these guys and the club. While I have yet to attend a game at the new pub, they are a great group to watch the game with. I have met both the club founders and they are passionate Gooners and proper Englishman (perhaps this isn't a compliment, , I kid). They have also been very helpful with tickets in the past.

Drum & Monkey is a big Rangers pub.

No - mainly because anyone who thinks those idiots are actually "fun" and "cool" and "relevant" is kidding themselves. I can tell you stories about 3 40 year old men kicking in the head of a 12 year old girl. Anyone who thinks hooligans should be glamorized or thinks it is ok to joke about them needs to re-assess what they do.

The Pig will show all CL games and put on the sound for you. They are very hospitable with that.

The best soccer pubs are the ones without gooners.

Theres a reason they're called 'Gooners.'

Ship is a staple place for matches, no doubt. The Pig and Duke is also great (amazing food as well). Fiddlers, The Winkin' Owl and I believe some of the 'Calgary's Best Pubs' should be showing most matches.
