A PUB has launched a search for a town's biggest rugby fan.

The Fernhurst in Bolton Road, Blackburn, has called for fans who know their scrums from their line-outs to be in with a chance of winning £1,000.

They will also get the chance to meet rugby legend Andy Goode for England's final group game against Argentina on Saturday, October 5.

As well as watching the match with the renowned rugby player, the chosen superfan will also have the chance to bring five of their friends to the pub with them.

Andrew Bishop, general manager at the Fernhurst, said: “So, if you live and breathe rugby and fancy £1,000 cash, as well as the chance to meet rugby legend Andy Goode, then we want to hear from you!”

To be in with a chance of winning, visit the 'Try your ruck competition' on the Greene King website and explain in less than 100 words or less why you deserve the title of Blackburn's biggest rugby fan.
