From 12.00-13.30, the Arena will be taking us back to 1987 by matching that year’s price for Stella Artois – just 97p per pint. (Restricted to one per person per transaction).


Fan Village open before and after the match on Friday.

The queues are bad enough when it's normal attendence, normal price and it's a bloke getting a round in for 4 people.

Wonder how many people will actually get a 97p pint when they see the size of the queue for it.

Absolute agree, it's just a real shame you are under the legal drinking age to take advantage of this deal...

And how many are going to want to queue for just one pint. Unless you could order a round but get one additional Stella for 97p.

Could maybe make it so if somebody wants to order 4, they show 4 match tickets so they can get rounds in.

Cant see it being too bad at 12pm-1.30pm. Not usually rammo at that time. I think Stella is served at nearly every outlet too?

It not limited to one pint per person. It's one pint per person per transaction. So, get your pint and then join the back of the queue again.

Bit of a nerd take from me, but putting some kind of restriction on the ability of football fans to buy premium lager at dirt-cheap prices several hours before a big local derby is…..probably a good idea?

And of course, if you really don't want to queue 4 times for 4 stella, then just take a 4 pack and sit in Can Corner™

That was my thought. Avoid the chaos and sit in the garden at midday with an 18 pack. Probably not as satisfying though.

It has been known for somebody with a huge cool box to be providing them from a nearby area for a small price as well.

Should be a breeze to get into the stadium if everyone's outside getting pissed on Stella.

Sunny Bank Holiday, local derby, loads riding on the game, Stella for 97p a pint.
What could possibly go wrong?

97p a pint if you're that way inclined.
