I used to drink in a bar that would knock 20p off a pint every time there was a goal.

I'm probably wrong,  but don't pubs/licensed venues have to display the prices of their drinks? do Villa display 2 prices?

How often does anywhere take notice of that?

No idea, I was just asking whether pubs are obliged to display their prices and, if so, do Villa advertise 2 prices? Very naughty of them if DBTW is right.

They're supposed to advertise all prices by law but I can't remember the last time I saw it anywhere.

If someone told me the prices go up for a short time I'd instinctively think they were on the fiddle but that's just my nasty, suspicious mind.

Prices are 20p cheaper before the game as the club have long since regarded kick-off as the end of "Happy Hour".

The latest twist this season is the introduction of "Utter Misery Hour" after the game for those of us that have to endure Aston Hall Rd/Lichfield Rd. Even last night with only 25,000 there. If the football doesn't drive me to despair the journey home is guaranteed to.

Well I arrived with my lad around 5.45 and was told it was complimentary free entrance. Ordered food and was advised it was cheaper before 7pm by 45p compared to the menu. Do they still charge less for a beer in the ground if you get there earlier? I assume they are early bird offers.

Serious comment, that HT increment is an absolute disgrace. The club is taking the piss out of the original hand that fed. It's one thing trying stunts like this on when the football side is hunky dory but to be doing it now is an absolute piss take.
Angry.

Why is it ok to do it when the football is 'hunky dory'?

Every time we complete a pass, they stick 10p on the price of refreshments.

Prices are 20p more at half time than before kick off. Which one is the "normal" price would seem to be irrelevant.
