It had seemed like the perfect promotion to get a few more punters through the door on a Saturday afternoon – give away a free pint for every goal scored by Nottingham Forest that day.
‘Free pint when Forest score!’: pub loses £1,500 after seven-goal rampage Landlady of The Gedling Inn says there were ‘lots of belly laughs’ but the free beer promotion may be a one-off.
The first goal hit the net after 12 minutes, and they soon started coming thick and fast – the final score was 7-0 to Nottingham Forest, to much jubilation among the football fans gathered in the pub.
We were running with the fact the pub was so vibrant, everyone was happy,” said Webster’s partner, Cassian Prime, who runs the pub alongside her.
“I think we definitely want to roll with the momentum – I’m not sure whether we could do the free pints again for every goal but you never know,” said Webster.
