Yes me and a work colleague went to watch the England game against Sweden and they charged us £2, this is ONLY when England play, and also you couldn`t use your Loyalty Card either, and ALSO they didnt have the cheap drinks on after 7pm and then we had to drink out of PLASTIC pints............ a right rip-off.

Grandad.Malky Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Vote with your feet and go to another pub, its like when they charge for New Years Eve, they only do it because they know some are daft enough to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandit Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 its not the fact that we had to drink outta plastic pint pots or anything like that tthat bugs me, its that we pay £2 each to get in and then as soon as the final whistle goes they say that they arent serving at the bar for the next hour.. whats that all about... aside from this it was without doubt the best atmosphere to watch the match in.... Eng-er-land !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don_Kiddick Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I wouldn't have paid it! Instead I'd have laughed in the faces of the ticket vendors "HAHAHAHAA!" and gone to a different watering hole. Damned highway robbery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
