Alcohol puts plenty money into sport so hopefully the FFA stops treating the league like a kindergarten and booze companies can be sponsors again.

They take just as much money from the anti-alcohol deal. That's the whole point. I think its a good initiative. 

Next step is to get rid of gambling odds being a key part of broadcasts of sport.

Why Tegal? Can't see the issue with having odds shown on games.

I doubt the anti-alcohol money would go on forever, where do these campaigns even get their money?

Bottom line is I have no issue with alcohol or gambling ads and am not a fan of being treated like I'm too irresponsible to have these products advertised to me.

You are not the target for the ban, ever thought about that?
I would love to see a ban on alcohol and gambling. I would rather see a donate button on the yellow fever site than that TAB banner on top.

Steve-O, the money comes from the Australian government, and a few other sources iirc such as fundraising etc. I read an article that interviewed the woman behind the program and it was very interesting. Sadly I can't seem to find it - if anybody knows the article I'm talking about then it'd be great if you could post it.

I did find this though, which gives an overview LINK

Come now. I never supplied details of when it was being announced and nether has anyone else thats heard the same story but I stand by what I have said absolutely. Just to humour you if we don't hear anything by start of September, then I'll walk. If anything pops up after that, you can take a hike.

If it is a brewery, Season Ticket holders should be allowed one free beer per home game. Anyone else support this idea?

What if as part of our season pass package, we purchase a prepaid pass for beer? Would that scoot around the liquor laws?

That said, we've had alcohol kit sponsors in the pass and that has resulted in a total of zero free beer, and we've got the same amount when the Nix have signed supplier deals, so there's next to no chance of it being offered in my opinion.

CARLSBERG JOINS FOOTBALL UNITED TOUR

A special one-day ticket deal is being offered to Auckland football fans this Friday to celebrate the announcement of the Football United Tour’s principal partner, international beer giant, Carlsberg.

Football United Tour host, Wellington Phoenix said the deal is on a strictly limited number of tickets for the West Ham United v Wellington Phoenix match at Eden Park on Wednesday July 23.

“Carlsberg is one of the world’s great beer brands and is synonymous with football so we are delighted that we’ve secured Carlsberg’s partnership for the tour,” Wellington Phoenix General manager, David Dome said.

On this Friday, 1,000 tickets only will be sold for $25 (plus booking fee) and will be made available through GrabOne.

Dome said that Carlsberg’s extremely generous offer to subsidise tickets to the Auckland match is indicative of their commitment to the Tour and their desire for as many New Zealanders to be part of the unique sporting event.

“$25 to see an English Premier League side is outstanding value and is a fraction of the cost you would pay to see West Ham play in London,” Dome said.

“We are thrilled that not only will Carlsberg be the principal partner of the Football United Tour, but also that Carlsberg will be available for purchase at every game in the Tour.

“This is the first time Carlsberg has been available for purchase at a football match in New Zealand.”

Carlsberg has a rich history with football and is the current official beer partner of the English Premier League, national teams of England, Denmark and Switzerland, club sponsors of Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Toronto FC and sponsors of the UEFA Cup and Super Cup.

Carlsberg New Zealand’s Ben Shaw said they are delighted to be bringing world class football to New Zealand.

“Carlsberg sponsors some of the very best in football all around the world and the visit of two quality English Premier League sides in West Ham and Newcastle United is a fantastic opportunity for New Zealand and we wanted to be a part of it,” Shaw said

Dome said the Club was delighted it could meet fans’ demand for alternative beer options on game day and that Carlsberg was joining in the festival spirit by subsidising tickets to the Auckland match.

“This is an amazing offer courtesy of Carlsberg and demonstrates their commitment to football in general, and the Football United Tour in particular.

“That certainly calls for a Carlsberg!”
