Supporters of Banbury United in Banbury, Oxfordshire can now get free drinks at a local pub whenever the team scores during away league games for the remainder of the 2025/26 Southern League Premier Central season. The Cherwell, 63–67 Broad Street, Banbury (operated by Stout & Stone Inns) has extended its “Score and Win” promotion to help fans who cannot travel to see the team play in person.
To get a free half-pint of select beer or cider, fans must be wearing official Banbury United merchandise — such as a club shirt, scarf or hat — while watching the match at the pub. The deal applies to every goal Banbury United scores in away league matches; a half-pint is provided after each verified goal.
The next chance for fans to take part is Saturday, 7 February 2026, when Banbury United travel to Halesowen Town. The promotion was announced on 6 February 2026 and runs through May 2026 as the season concludes. The initiative follows a period of rebuilding for Banbury United after relegation from the National League North in 2023/24, and is intended to keep local supporters involved with the fan-owned club.
The Cherwell’s management, which is listed on WhatPub, said the offer is intended to create a lively town-centre atmosphere and to provide an alternative for supporters who are not able to travel on official away coaches. The Cherwell has stated the promotion is limited to away league matches; the pub has not publicly detailed whether there is a per-person cap on free drinks or provided further eligibility limits.
