    Naively thought they used the upstairs bar/function room restaurant bit.

    Just seen a Leeds YouTube Vlog and they're in the main sports hall with the terrace seating erected that they use at boxing events etc.

    Bet they take some right coin. It looked rammed it there.

    It's what they callarms length. Technically. Council. But run as a separate entity which exposes themto other funding groups as has also facilitated them in procuring external revenue in managing facilities for other local. Authorities
    Bernslai homes is the same

    BPL tentacles reach out beyond Barnsley. When I lived in Bircotes (near Bawtry) the leisure centre there was owned by BPL.

    Always amused when I saw the literature lying around the centre with Barnsley football advertising all over it. This in a Doncaster Rovers area. Lovely that :D

    They were advertising special dink packages for the Leeds fans.

    A pint of Stella would normally set you back around £3.50

    Go out in Leeds and don't expect much change out of £5 for a pint. A round of 3 and a half pints last week, cost me £17.10 at The Griffin pub.

    Leeds fans may have moaned about the ticket price, but they'll have more than made up for it with the cheap ale.

    Anyone drinking Stella or Bud should be banned from attending football matches for life.

    The reason why the No 7 and the Arcade Alehouse have the background odor of old mans farts.
