A PUB has renamed itself after West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen for the Euros — replacing all its signage for the duration of the tournament.
The Wheatsheaf in Chelmsford, Essex, has become the Jarrod Bow Inn to mark his selection after four-fifths of punters voted for it in a poll.
Owner Paul Kelly, 53, said: “I’m a Gooner so I didn’t enjoy sticking up the signs but when it comes to England we’re all in it together.”
Punter Emma Lock, 37, added: “It is exactly the kind of stuff you want to see during the Euros.”
Residents of Bellingham in Northumberland, meanwhile, have adopted starman Jude as their own ahead of tonight’s clash against Denmark.
Villager Les Armstrong, 87, said: “He’d be made mayor if he visited here.”
Meanwhile in Germany, the bad weather has forced Uefa into making a late decision regarding England’s upcoming Euro 2024 clash.
The Three Lions face Denmark looking to confirm their place in the knockouts with a victory in Frankfurt on Thursday.
However, the Group C showdown at the Waldstadion will be played with the stadium roof closed due to stormy conditions in the city.
Uefa made the decision today ahead of the clash, which will kick-off at 5pm UK time tomorrow.
The roof of the Waldstadion was closed prior to Denmark‘s players training on the pitch tonight.
The rain storms have already put a dampener on Euro 2024.
