I know this question keeps getting raised in a slightly different form every time there is a big match on, but can we compile a definitive list of pubs in the city centre that definitely show Sky football games (regardless of quality of pub)? I don't mean the ones in your local area, city centre only please.

From past experience there aren't that many (due to cost of subs) and you can waste time trekking round. Even those that have it aren't that good. Here are a few off top of my head:

- Yorkshire Grey (big screen has a bit poor picture, but at least there are several small ones too)
- Walkabout (it didn't actually show the game the last time I went there for footie, it was pro-celebrity lacrosse or something instead, but they do have Sky I think)
- Cavendish

Any others? Or am I better off trawling the suburbs?

The Old Monk (near the Crucible) is quite good for watching sport.

I hear the Penny Black has a big screen. :|

I'm pretty sure they will screen most games.

The Cutler on cambridge street (just down the hill from wetherspoons) is a crackin pub with several plasma screens and sky sports. Prices aint bad either!
