Here at the Linford our crazy manager Sam is doing it again!
Every year she raises money in October for amazing charities by doing something that pushes her way out of her comfort zone.
Last year she swam the Channel… in a swimming pool! She smashed it and raised over £600.
This year she’s taking on the National Autistic Society’s 100 Miles in October challenge — 100 miles of walking, swimming or hopping 😳 for a charity very close to her heart.
Please support her if you can – every little bit helps!

✨ LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WEEKEND AT THE LINFORD! 🍻🏏

It’s shaping up to be a good one… and possibly involving some questionable cricketing decisions along the way! 😂

🍻 Golden Hours – Friday, 4–7pm
The perfect way to kick off the weekend with a few drinks and good company.

🏏 THE PHOENIX CUP – SUNDAY 13th SEPTEMBER 🏆
⚔️ The Linford vs The Village

🍺 Meet at The Linford from midday – a bit of team spirit, a pint or two and probably some very serious tactical discussions… 😉

🕝 Match starts at 2.30pm

Come along, support the team and enjoy a proper Sunday afternoon of cricket, drinks and village rivalry! 🏏🍻

⚽️ Plus, live sports showing all weekend at The Linford!

☔ And because it wouldn’t be a British sporting event without a weather contingency… if the heavens open, the competition will move back to The Linford! 😂

So whether you’re here for the cricket, the beers, the banter or just to watch someone blame the umpire… we’ll see you at the bar!

🤗🍺 Everyone’s welcome! ❤️

⚽️👏 What a World Cup it’s been! 👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

What an incredible journey. While England may not have reached the final, they have given us so many unforgettable moments to cheer about. A huge congratulations to the team on finishing 3rd in the world – that is an achievement to be incredibly proud of! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️

Here at The Linford, we’ve loved every minute of sharing the excitement with all of you. The atmosphere has been amazing, and we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us to support England throughout the tournament. Your passion, singing, cheering and unwavering support made every match one to remember.

The football may be over, but the sporting action certainly isn’t! Our attention continues with England Rugby, following a fantastic victory over Argentina last night. 🏉🔥

We’ll be backing England once again when the Autumn Nations Series kicks off, with the first home fixture on Sunday 8th November. Keep your eyes peeled for all the details of our match-day events, delicious food and the unbeatable atmosphere here at The Linford.

Thank you again for making this World Cup so special. We can’t wait to welcome you all back to cheer on England once again.

Come on England – we’ll be behind you every step of the way! ❤️🤍

🏆⚽ IT’S WORLD CUP SEMI-FINAL TIME AT THE LINFORD! ⚽🏆

The atmosphere has been absolutely electric, and we’re ready to do it all again as England take on Argentina in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Semi-Final! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇦🇷

📅 Wednesday 15 July
⏰ Kick-off: 8pm

🚪 Doors open from 4pm
🥪 Fresh crusty cobs & delicious sweet treats available.
🌭 Sam’s firing up the BBQ from 6pm with our famous Linford Bangers & Onions!

📢 Quiz fans… our usual Wednesday Quiz is taking a little break this week. We’ll be far too busy shouting at the TV, celebrating every England goal and (hopefully!) singing “It’s Coming Home!” 🎶🍻

🏆 Beat Argentina and England will be just one game away from lifting the World Cup on Sunday!

If last week’s atmosphere is anything to go by, it’s going to be another cracking night! We’d recommend getting down a little earlier to grab a seat, enjoy a pint and soak up the buzz before kick-off. 🍺🙌

Whether you’re a football fanatic or just fancy a great night out with friends, The Linford is the place to be!

See you at the bar! 🍻
