UP TO four alternative comedians will be having a foot-ball in Blackpool every month as a new comedy club takes off.

The monthly event launches at Blackpool Football Club (BFC) on November 29 with a Christmas party including meal, four comedians, disco and late bar in the Sir Stanley Matthews stand, off Seasiders Way.

The comedy club is a joint initiative between BFC and Fresh Promotions. Peter Whitehead, BFC's director, said: "We believe this will become a popular ongoing event and enhance the profile of the stadium as a multi-purpose venue."

For more details phone Fresh Promotions on 318267.
