Open the bars earlier (any imposed restrictions?) on match-days.
The Licensing Act 2003 was partly to try and eliminate ‘binge drinking’ from our previous ‘stop watch’ drinking culture.
Get them on our premises eating and drinking our food rather than them spending their money in the many other local outlets.
If they are determined to have a ‘good sesh’ then they’ll do so before entering our establishment anyhow.
Pre-Match Prep:
Friday nights at the Iron Bar. It could feature prize bingo, racing nights, pub quiz, karaoke, Scunny’s Got Talent, local club type bands, young bands whom might want to ‘rehearse’ in front of a live audience, open mics, comedy nights.
The ‘entertainment’ can be rotated weekly and could feature a couple of different events each week?
I.e.
bingo & pub quiz
Open mic & comedy club
Just some thoughts on how we can be more of a community club.
