Goals on Worcester Avenue in Wheatley will remain open for sport – but those hoping to quench their first afterwards will be disappointed.

Announcing the news on Facebook, a spokesman said: “Following the recent update in government guidance we’re now moving to Tier 2 level restrictions. The safety of our customers, teams and community remain our priority and it's key we all play our part.

“As organised outdoor sport, our pitches will be open for play. Your game can continue, but unfortunately the post-match pint will be put on hold. We will be closing our bar area to the public as of Wednesday 14 October and will be asking customers to limit any time spent in the clubhouse.”

“We’ll continue to do our part and work with the local authority to ensure we remain Covid-secure.”
