    Probably best to choose one or the other!

    unless it referes to the clientele, doubling your target market is always a good thing ;)

    Although it's only around 20 days a year out of a possible 52 so maybe something else would be required too.

    OP was only looking for 26.....so can consider the other six as weekends off!

    Not necessarily the case of course, football clubs do lots of other hospitality, there are additional matches e.g. FA cup throughout the year and have shops/tours etc (if you have a decent team that is......I appreciate this last part will be difficult if the Op does not live near Old Trafford :P)

    26 weekends = 52 days.
    No. of weekend days when a football club plays a home match = approx 20.

    I would imagine that the shop/tour jobs would require people more than every other weekend.

    Ahem, yeah. But yes, most Football Clubs now will have a hospitality & events arm that operates seperately but also on matchdays. You could also volunteer as a steward maybe? Would get training.

    Oh & St Marys is where it's at!

    Bar job? they can be quite flexible, gives someone who works full time the opportunity for a weekend off.
    Supermarket? most employers can be quite flexible these days!
    Car washing? Babysitting? Have a look on your local Gumtree.
    Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.
    They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.
