Other restaurants and pubs do exist - TG
And even in a pub I would not expect to find a TV in anywhere but the public bar which is not where you’d be serving lunch.
Non- problem.

Good advert for Wetherspoons, if you like football but have never been.
I expect regulars will already know, so yes, keeping quiet it’s just advertising.
Is it allowed?

TBH I wouldn’t have thought that GN was exactly the perfect site for promoting Wetherspoons!

I’m sure Infoman was trying to inform any regulars who aren’t football fans, that it might be a good time to go elsewhere.

I sort of support Newcastle being born 9 miles from the city and obviously was delighted they won the League Cup, but otherwise don't bother with football in pubs. I find the pundits in particular very boring and their banal debates about an offside decision. Don't go to pubs much now anyway, so not a problem.

Goodness me. All Infoman is doing is giving a heads up... Please, just let him do so.
If it doesn't interest you, move on... No need to pull him up surely.
