    I don't know for sure but it would seem plausible as the Horse and Jockey was a very short walking distance to the ground. In those days the very few clubs in existence never had their own facilities it would have been a football pitch and possibly some stand or other for shelter. So clubs would use the nearest inn for changing etc.
    I haven't been down Stoney Lane for ages. I believe the Jockey is still a pub. Queens Head a little further along is no longer there/used? The Jolly Nailor at the bottom end near the hospital i think are now flats?
    And I believe Tony Godden lived in/near Stoney Lane, near the lyng Spring, which as long dried up

    It's still a pub, I use it regularly when I'm down in West Brom. visiting
