A front row seat for all of England's World Cup games at just £2.50 a match, has got to be value for money.

But takers will not be travelling to Germany because the seat on offer is in St Francis Church, on Banbury's Hardwick estate, where England's games are being shown live on giant screen.

Malcolm Bromhall, one of the organisers, reckons it's a bargain.

He said: "For £2.50 you also get a World Cup brochure, a flag, and waiter service throughout the game."

For those who prefer to 'stand on the terraces,' the church is inviting soccer fans to watch the big kick-off at 2pm on Saturday free of charge.

Mr Bromhall said: "We want to create the big match atmosphere in a family-friendly environment. As well as the soccer we've got sports quizzes, raffles, and the best hotdogs outside the Premiership.

"We're looking forward to following England all the way to the final."
