At just £2.90 per pint, his £500 gesture turned a modest night out into a celebration of class and generosity. The affordable prices at the social club amplified the impact of his act.
Richard Logan captured the moment on social media, remarking, “Never seen word spread around so much. Wow. Ridiculous.” His post perfectly reflected the excitement and surprise that rippled through the community.
Earlier in the day, Grealish posed for photos at a Manchester pub before heading to The Dubliner in Newcastle for live music. On the pitch, he shined by playing 90 minutes in a 3-1 FA Cup win against Plymouth Argyle, and he has started 14 matches this season after joining City for a British record fee of £100 million in 2021.
Off the field, Grealish embraced fatherhood when his partner Sasha Attwood gave birth to their daughter, Mila Rose, in late 2024. Locals and fans alike praise his friendly nature and eagerly await his next visit to the humble social club.
