Burnley Cricket Club

Burnley CC must have made a fortune today. It was full of Spurs fans. £7 for parking, no refunds as staff had to be paid. No usual special offer of £2 pints after the game because there was no game !! Many Spurs fans just carried on drinking at normal prices because you couldn't get out of the car park anyway. And all will be charged £7 again when the game is replayed.

And the Spurs fans have to fork all that out for effectively nothing.

The big loser here today is football fans.

I'm not entirely sure that paying £7 to park ,then drinking all afternoon in the cricket club is the best plan tbh. I'm not "old Bill" or owt , but..... 😉

Spurs fans got free pies if they went in the ground.

Not all bad.

That would have saved them £5.50 on the pie, chips and peas in the cricket club !!

When we went to Tottenham's new stadium as I remember a pint of the very good local brew, Neck Oil by Beavertown Brewery, was £5. This represented a significant discount as it's been well over £6 in pubs down here for some time.

Would you have had them sat in the stands till today if it hadn’t stopped snowing? At the risk of sounding a tad critical you’re getting boring now.
