Wetherspoon confirmed that the “vast majority” of its 850 pubs - including its Leeds bars - would be showing the international tournament
The pub chain said its decision to screen the tournament without sound has been made out of respect for patrons who are not interested in football.welcomes around two million customers each week and its pubs are known for being free from background sound and music.
Wetherspoon’s pubs do occasionally screen sports games with sound, but the decision falls to the manager of each individual pub. A total of 64 matches will be played over the next four weeks until December 19 when the final will be broadcast at 3pm.matches in its pubs. There will only be a handful of pubs not showing the games as they do not have screens.
“As alway the sound will be switched off for the games as there will be a lot of people who are not interested in watching the game or hearing the commentary. It will be up to the manager’s discretion if they wish to put the sound on.”
