Forthcoming Events

At The Dickens Bar & Inn

2nd February, 2026
Sunderland v Burnley (Premier League)

Sunderland v Burnley (Premier League)

Coverage of the Premier League match at Stadium of Light. Burnley claimed a 2-0 win in August's reverse fixture at Turf Moor courtesy of goals by Josh Cullen and Jaidon Anthony, but Sunderland have enjoyed a far stronger season than their fellow promoted side so far and will expect to make home advantage count this evening.

5th February, 2026
France v Ireland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

France v Ireland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage between France v Ireland of Round 1 of the Six Nations from the Stade de France in Paris. The reigning champions France begin their title defence against Ireland in what is the first ever Thursday night opener in Six Nations history. Last season’s meeting saw France beat Ireland 42-27 in Dublin, a bonus-point win that derailed the Irish bid for a third straight title. France hold the edge in the long-running rivalry, winning significantly more of their over 100 Test meetings, while Ireland will be hoping to overturn that recent trend on French soil.

6th February, 2026
Leeds United v Nottingham Forest (Premier League)

Leeds United v Nottingham Forest (Premier League)

Coverage of the Premier League match from Elland Road. Both sides are fighting to stay in the top flight currently so three points for either side would be a massive result in their quest to retain their Premier League status. The reverse fixture back in November saw the visitors take all three points as they came from behind to beat their hosts 3-1 at the City Ground.

7th February, 2026
Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur (Premier League)

Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur (Premier League)

Coverage of the top-flight match from Old Trafford. The reverse fixture back in November saw Matthijs de Ligt score a 96th-minute equaliser to earn the Red Devils a 2-2 draw. Bryan Mbuemo had given the hosts the lead in the 32nd minute before late goals from Mathys Tel and Richarlison looked like they had earned Spurs all three points, only for de Ligt's goal gave United a deserved point.

7th February, 2026
Italy v Scotland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Italy v Scotland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage of Round 1 of the Six Nations from the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Scotland won last season’s meeting at Murrayfield 31-19 thanks in part to a hat-trick from Huw Jones, extending their strong head-to-head record against Italy — they’ve won 29 of the 38 Tests between these sides since 1996. Italy’s last victory over Scotland came in a thrilling 31-29 showdown in Rome in 2024, showcasing how unpredictable this fixture can be when played on home soil.

7th February, 2026
England v Wales (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

England v Wales (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage of Round 1 of the Six Nations from Twickenham Stadium. These long-time rivals meet with England aiming to build on an impressive pre-tournament run that includes an 11-game winning streak, though the team has not secured a Six Nations title since 2020. Wales come into the fixture under new leadership seeking to arrest a prolonged run of defeats in the Championship, having struggled over recent seasons and looking for a fresh start against their neighbours.

7th February, 2026
Newcastle United v Brentford (Premier League)

Newcastle United v Brentford (Premier League)

Coverage of the Premier League match at St James' Park. Both these teams are challenging for European places for next season, but it was Brentford who took the honours at Gtech Community Stadium in November. Harvey Barnes gave Newcastle the lead on that occasion, but a goal by Kevin Schade and Igor Thiag's brace after Dan Burn had been sent off for the Magpies gave Keith Andrews' men a 3-1 win.

8th February, 2026
Brighton v Crystal Palace (Premier League)

Brighton v Crystal Palace (Premier League)

Coverage of the Premier League match at Amex Stadium. Palace are unbeaten in their last three meetings with their rivals, having beaten them home and away last term and drawn 0-0 at Selhurst Park in November, but they have struggled for form in recent weeks and Brighton will be hopeful of making home advantage count this time around.

8th February, 2026
Liverpool v Manchester City (Premier League)

Liverpool v Manchester City (Premier League)

Coverage of the Premier League match at Anfield. City claimed an impressive 3-0 win in November's reverse fixture at Etihad Stadium thanks to goals by Erling Haaland, Nico Gonzalez and Jeremy Doku, but Liverpool will expect to perform better in front of their own fans and won 2-0 here in last season's corresponding fixture.

10th February, 2026
Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United (Premier League)

Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United (Premier League)

Coverage of the top-flight match from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Cristian Romero scored twice in the reverse fixture back in December as Tottenham came from behind on two occasions to earn a 2-2 draw. Bruno Guimaraes and Anthony Gordon had twice given the Magpies the lead inside the final 15 minutes, but Romero's 95th minute overhead kick spoilt things for Newcastle.

10th February, 2026
Chelsea v Leeds United (Premier League)

Chelsea v Leeds United (Premier League)

Coverage of the top-flight match from Stamford Bridge. The reverse fixture in early December saw the visitors pick up an impressive 3-1 victory against a Chelsea side that struggled to deal with Leeds' energy. First-half goals from Jaka Bijol and Ao Tanaka had given the Whites a 2-0 lead at half-time before Pedro Neto pulled a goal back for the Blues early on in the second half. However Leeds weren't to be denied an important three points as Dominic Calvert-Lewin made it 3-1 in the 72nd minute

10th February, 2026
West Ham United v Manchester United (Premier League)

West Ham United v Manchester United (Premier League)

Coverage of the top-flight match from The London Stadium, in a key game for both sides. The hosts are fighting relegation and a win here would give much-needed confidence to a side that have struggled for much of the season. The visitors on the other hand are still in the hunt for a Champions League place, and a win here would certainly improve their chances of finishing in the top four.

14th February, 2026
Scotland v England (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Scotland v England (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage of Round 2 of the Six Nations from Scottish Gas Murrayfield in Edinburgh. The Calcutta Cup fixture pits Scotland against England in one of the Championship’s most traditional rivalries; England’s last 11‑game winning streak underlines their recent consistency, but Scotland will be fired up to defend home advantage. With England having not claimed a title since 2020, a statement win here would send a strong message early in their campaign.

21st February, 2026
Wales v Scotland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Wales v Scotland (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage of Round 3 from the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. Scotland edged a thrilling contest against Wales 35‑29 in their last meeting in Edinburgh, a game that showcased both sides’ attacking flair and defensive lapses. The long rivalry favours Wales overall, but Scotland’s scalp in 2025 gives them confidence as they seek another statement result on Welsh soil.

22nd February, 2026
France v Italy (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

France v Italy (Rugby Union - Six Nations)

Coverage of Round 3 of the Six Nations from Stade Pierre Mauroy in Lille. France have been dominant against Italy in recent years, typically posting large winning margins with rapid try‑scoring depth, and last season’s clash reflected that gulf. Italy will be aiming to narrow that gap and spring an upset, but will need to flip that recent trend to trouble the defending champions in northern France.
