Standards NI standards, there’s always the iron bar.
A few years back I went with a mate to watch Newcastle Blue Star play Bradford (Park Avenue) at Newcastle Falcons Kingston Park ground. They only had the main stand open, and at halftime we wandered in through the suite of lounges looking for refreshments.
Ended up in a large function room where we were offered hot or cold drinks and snacks for which we weren’t asked for payment. As we tucked into our tea and sandwiches we realised the staff thought we were BPA “executives”!
The free scran made up for the awful football on display. A 0-0 bore draw on a freezing cold night.
