Are there any decent pubs showing the England games (particularly the 11pm one!). Haven't started looking I must admit but my local had got shit for football so need to find somewhere where you can see the game and not fight to the bar!
I used to go in the Rocket too when big games were on especially the England World Cup games. It's still there though I think ? Unless it closed down as I went in there before getting the train to the Wolves match last season.Great boozer in its day though !Back in the day i used to love the Rocket, fully kitted out the place and you could normally get served as they staffed up. Shame its no longer!!

Try Brandon Club (near Speedway) - 3xTV''s + Big Screen + Pork & Stuffing Batches - can't be bad
You're right on both counts. It's still there, but closed down.
yes its still there and was open not too long ago. I remember going to the golf show in Brum and stopping in their for a pint. They had lots of pictures of dodgy African leaders including Mr Mugabe! It was a little strange but friendly enough however we couldn't see the difference between cider and lager!!I used to go in the Rocket too when big games were on especially the England World Cup games.

Has it improved any since Jim Lakey ran it? Used to be a bit grubby.
Wish it would make it's mind up. If it opened up for the World Cup it would make loads of cash as it always has been a football pub.yes its still there and was open not too long ago.
