    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Absolutely. It won Group F so will be featured in tomorrow's Round 2 fixtures where it comes up against The World's End

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Any excuse for a trip to the marvellous city of Berlin is good by me

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Thanks chaps. As you know I am only responsible for collating the votes and organising the logistics of this competition. Far be it from me to decide what does and does not constitute a good pub. I think we all have a fairly good idea of the pubs most likely to make it to the final, as it is...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    I rather like this idea, although in practise it could be a little difficult to get right. For instance The Lanes hasn't contributed any pubs to this competition whereas Hanover is a hotbed of quality boozers. And apologies once again over the Lion and Lobster mishap. I'm sure that next year...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    And that is that. I'm calling time on the final group of this competition. No surprises in Group G with the Good Companions and the Farm Tavern easily taking first and second, over some pretty weak competition. Tomorrow will see the first two draws in the knockout phase to see who will win a...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    To be honest I should have employed some more quality control measures. There were actually several nominations for the Allen Arms which I included in my draw only to discover it hasn't existed for a very long time. Furthermore I have no doubt that some of the votes for the Cliftonville were...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    I must apologise then. Don't know how I've missed it but in my big spreadsheet of votes I only had one down for the Lion and Lobster, so it didn't make it into the list of those for the group stage. In principle I am up for the play-off idea but I can imagine a lot of people would moan. As...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Brighton Rocks is still called Brighton Rocks. You're thinking of Rock Street and not Rock Place. The Rock is still there (Rock Street) and the pub opposite was a horrible dive called the I Go Inn, which got tarted up no end as Busby and Wilds. As for the Lion & Lobster I only counted the one...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Not sure how its happened but there is some real shit in this group. Real bottom of the barrel offering for the final group, which is odd considering the draw was made at random after the seeds were determined. Anyway, the seed here is the Good Companions, a pub much improved since its refurb...

    Brighton Pub World Cup ***Group H***

    Here it is chaps. The last of the groups. If you've not seen your favourite pub so far then you'll be hoping to see it here. As ever, the top two will go through. Happy voting. Brighton Rocks, Rock Place, Brighton The Farm Tavern, Farm Road, Hove The Good Companions, Dyke Road...
