The average cost of a pint at a Premiership football ground is £3.19, some 44p more than the country’s average price.
Outline of the London club, which you’d expect to be more expensive anyway, City, Sunderland, West Brom, Aston Villa, Newcastle, and Everton all charge more for a pint than at Old Trafford. The likes of Stoke, Hull, and Blackburn charge the same, with only Bolton, Middlesbrough, and Wigan selling their beer for less.
When you consider that Wigan and Middlesbrough’s average attendance this season has been 7,000 less than full capacity, whilst Bolton’s has been down by an average of 3,000, it’s no surprise that they’re trying to keep their fans sweet with cheaper beer!
