I know I'm only a girl, and an an American at that (so I couldn't give a
cr@p about what you people call footlball...) BUT, I did realize this was
going to be an issue, and I'm working on it. I was hoping it was going to
be an evening game.....
There is, unfortunately, no bar with a big screen TV overlooking the
pitches- but there is a large lounge/entry lobby to the showers with power,
so I'm working on a TV for the site. (Please say the game is on terrestrial
TV!!!!). As for a nearby bar- there are a number of pubs in Daventry, and
the hotel bar is only a mile away. I'll be sure there's a TV there.
As for schedule concessions- sorry, no can do if the tournament is full.
With only 8 pitches, it's gonna take all of both days to get through all the
games- even with the first round 'blow-out' games shortened. (Don't worry
if you'll be in a tight first-rounder, we're giving you more time.) But if
there is any way I can accommodate a little break, I will.
Hope that gives you a little hope,
nancy
