Football fans can bag themselves a free drink if they share their surname with a England or Wales player, thanks to leading pub company and brewer, Greene King.

As Your Home of Pub Sport, Greene King is offering a free pint or bottle of Ice Breaker Pale Ale or a soft drink alternative* to any customer that shares one of 50 surnames with the players** in the England and Wales men’s football squads during the home nations group stages of the upcoming football tournament this winter.

To claim the free drink, all customers have to do is show their photo ID at the bar of any participating pub** during a live group game involving either home nation.

Every England and Wales group stage fixture will be shown live across over 800 Greene King sports pubs nationwide.

The upcoming tournament officially kicks off on Sunday 20 November, with England getting their campaign underway on Monday 21st November against Iran, while Wales face USA on the same day.

Chris Conchie, Head of Marketing for Greene King sport said: “Any international football tournament is a major event for fans, and since the success of the Lionesses earlier this year, all eyes are on the men’s teams this winter.

“This limited time offer is more than just a free drink, it’s a chance for us, as your home of pub sport, to provide the best environment for people to come and show their support right across the UK for our England and Wales stars as they pursue glory at the highest level of international football.”
