Chester can't get it right
Little appears to be going right for the management at Chester City Football Club these days, as it has been revealed that as well as no music licence, they have not got a liquor licence either. And even worse the Police have unknowingly broken the law at the Deva Stadium by having a function at the ground without a licence.
The problem was revealed this week as The Chester Chronicle investigated complaints that a number of events - including a wedding reception and 50th birthday bash - had been cancelled at short notice.
The soccer club this week apologised to the police party and other people who had events cancelled.
A spokesperson for Cheshire Police said: 'The police had no reason to believe there was a problem with the licensing of the function room, enquiries on the matter would have to be made to Chester City FC.'
Tony Carrs of Hoole was told with three days to go that his 50th birthday party could not be held in the club's function room because vandals had broken in and flooded it.
But hours later the police used the same room and Flintshire and Cheshire Police both confirmed that they have no record of any vandalism being reported.
Mr Carrs said he became suspicious when he visited the stadium the next day and they refused to show him the room.
