Wouldn't surprise me if it accidently caught fire ….. then no option but to knock it down ……

the tram I was on had a conductor on.

So where has everyone been watching the footie ? I have been to: Fox & Duck Old Queens Head New Barrack Tavern Common Room The Graduate The Crown Inn (Heeley) The Clubhouse The Rising Sun (Fulwood) I shall be watching the England match at Fox & Duck so I am near to Rising Sun (Fulwood) for the beer festival

Lescar are showing the games outside, I was there last night. They have about 3/4 keg on as well, I cannot remember which brewery it was, its on my Untppd. Looks like Graze Inn or what it is called on Eccy Rd (works browser restricted any beer sites) is also showing games, but not sure about Saturday. I did hear Portland House are showing some games but not sure what.

Only saw the 2nd half of Russia vs Saudi Arabia and must say SA were pathetic, their goal keeper was abysmal the only reason Russia won so easy is their opponents made them look good, will be a different task when playing Egypt and Uruguay. How SA qualified is beyond me, when teams like Italy and Holland and Chile are not even there.

Old Queens Head are also showing all the games, they have a big screen for the occasion. Ales though are Thwaites and a couple of guest ones, they also serve food if feeling peckish at half time I was in there last night and enjoyed it, talking to 2 random strangers about football .. as one does when World Cup is on.

Broomhill Tavern - usual Doombar, Farmers Blonde, Moonshine, nice pub and shows a lot sport so wouldn't surprise me if they showing a lot of World Cup. Itchy Pig - micropub and ales change all the time. The York - more of a food place, pub split into 2, one side food other to sit and drink, they have True North ales on and a few guest ales. Bloomery - they have about 4 ale pumps and 5 craft/keg ales on, also a sporty pub. Ales change. Nottingham House - only a couple of ale pumps and always find Timothy Taylor Landlord and Doombar, sometimes Moonshine, their pies are popular, never tried one. Fox and Duck - not been in since refurb and ale change.

They do but none on a Saturday. Was in New Barrack Tavern last night and they are showing ALL matches including Saturday.

looking at the pictures they have 5 ale pumps now, some were Thornbridge, Kelham Island, Bradfield - Farmers Blonde and Doombar. Keg had some Thornbridge on. have 10% discount for Students and NHS staff. Its not saying to me "rush back and pay a visit".

well there you go the Hope Valley will be more on beer as they catch the passing trade. You don't really have anywhere else to go out there so they charge more.

A bit closer to town The Clubhouse are showing ALL the matches. But no craft/keg ales unless you like Stones bitter they have half a dozen cask ales, usually 3 or 4 ciders. The Kickov does sound interesting, might give it a go for one of the matches. I also hear they have no Saturday games on apart from June 30th Found that Greystones are showing a few matches but none on Saturday.

This place http://www.kickov.com/ is showing a few more than just the England games. They are next to Picture Social House, looks a big screen and nice setup, I have asked them if they do any ales, only mentions the word "craft" on their website. The Ball Inn at Crookes - cannot find what games they are showing but I guess they will have a few on with all those screens.

it wouldn't surprise me if Bar Stewards show it. New Barrack Tavern are showing it. Only problem with HOS is they don't put the sound on.

Low Bradfield - The Plough Loxley - Nags Head Inn Millhouses - Wagon and Horses Abbey Lane - Rising Sun Lodge Moor - The Sportsman Walkey - Walkley Cottage Neepsend - Gardeners Rest Ranmoor - Ranmoor Inn Nether Edge - The Union Chapeltown - The Commercial

I walked past it last night and it is still open, maybe they are changing opening hours during January, although it was a bit empty but most of the other pubs I was in were also empty.
