Firkin World Cup pub1
An unusual World Cup bet has left customers at a Northamptonshire pub with a good reason to keep watching even after England’s early exit. Russell Proctor, licensee at the George in Tiffield, has offered a free pint to any customer who spots regular John Whelan and a specially designed St George’s flag in Brazil. As well as a complimentary tipple for the sharp-eyed drinker, Russell has also agreed to give John a firkin of locally produced Tiffield Thunderbolt if the challenge comes off.
