Football fans aged over 66 (aged 10+ in 1966), can win free food and drink during the upcoming World Cup, as part of a competition launched by leading pub company and brewer, Greene King.

Working with England legend Sir Geoff Hurst, the search is on for fans who witnessed England’s historic triumph 56 years ago.

For a chance of winning, Greene King are calling on guests to enter themselves or nominate a worthy friend or relative by visitinghttps://www.greeneking-pubs.co.uk/worldcupcompetition/, selecting their local Greene King sports pub and completing the entry form by 31st October.

Sixty-six fans will be selected and appointed the official Lucky Fan in their local Greene King sports pub, receiving a £100 gift card to fuel them through the winter tournament. What’s more, the lucky 66 will be issued with a framed certificate as a keepsake and celebration for their ongoing support of the England team.

Former England star Sir Geoff Hurst said: “The World Cup is so much more than a football tournament, it’s a moment that unites the country and brings together friends and families in support of our team.

“This competition is a special thank you to reward fans from 1966, letting them enjoy the 2022 World Cup in style at their local Greene King sports pub – plus they may just be the lucky charm we need to see us back to glory!”

Chris Conchie, marketing controller for Greene King Sports said: “The World Cup always brings excitement levels to fever pitch, and we can’t wait to welcome fans through our doors across the country to show their support for England.

“As the home of pub sport, we wanted to give the longest serving England fans something to cheer about as we head towards the World Cup, sharing their first-hand experiences of one of the greatest sporting moments in England’s history.”

Winners of Greene King’s Lucky Fan competition will be awarded £100 in Greene King gift vouchers to provide them with free food and drink for the tournament plus a framed certificate keepsake.
