The Wishing Well, Watford

Just left this pub after trying to watch the Ireland vs Pacific Islands rugby game.
I've no idea how many TV screens are in there, but, the two big ones were both showing the same football match (only 2 lads sat at one chatting, instead of watching it), and several smaller sets around the bar showing the same games.
Only one small screen near the bar showing the Rugby. So, I settle down with my Guinness to watch it.
15mins into the game, some young barman says, "I'm afraid I have to turn it over".
"Are you having a laugh?", I say.
"No", and he smirks, and then turns it over onto the football.
Seems to me that the proprieter was off at the time, and the bar was run by staff. I'm going to try and find the landlord and register my complaint.
But, it's unlikely I'll ever drink there again.
Irish pub my arse.
