    [Football] Which club do you dislike the most?

    At the moment it is Chelsea. Sorry to say it but I have been quite impressed with Palace's recent improvements, achieved with less than 10% of the arrogance and entitlement of Chelsea.

    [Albion] Half and half scarves

    Not only should anyone wearing them be ejected from the stadium, they also should get a banning order from all grounds.

    [Albion] Are you going to Man City?

    Bought tickets, could go yesterday, can’t today - so resold them on exchange.

    [Albion] How exactly did we blow the Championship title in 2016/17?

    That this thread exists shows it still hurts (some of us).

    [Albion] How exactly did we blow the Championship title in 2016/17?

    The whole point of the game is to win things and be the best. Yes, promotion is what matters financially, but league champion would have been wonderful, too. Newcastle have won one trophy since 2010: this. We’ve never won it. It still annoys me.

    [Football] FA Cup semi finals

    Level is supposed to be onside. That is always ignored now.

    [Albion] Women’s Football

    I've only been to one women's game - another of those times that the BHA women's team played at the Amex. It was ok, the atmosphere was ok. The crowd seemed quite different to the men's game and it seemed a younger audience. I think there is a generational difference here. My daughter was...

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2023/24 Edition

    Following on from our trip to Crowborough Athletic a few months ago, we went along to Lewes for the first time today - last match of the season. This was closer to how I was expecting non-league to be (I'd never been to a non-league match before 2024). Being sunny helped, I think, though it was...

    [Music] Pet Shop Boys

    I like them, especially their mid 90s stuff - the Very and Bilingual albums, probably because they coincided with my going out/clubbing years. I’m not up to date on anything they’ve done in the last twenty years - same with the rest of modern music - so I’d be in the “Greatest Hits” crowd...

    [Albion] Burnley vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    The own goal was the best part of the day. The worst was walking back up that bridge at in the driving rain, heading for the station.

    [Albion] When should you pot on an Acer seedling?

    “Keep as much soil with it as possible when moving” says my local horticulture advisor.

    [Albion] Arsenal fans in home stands

    The Man U tickets that went on sale today required Albion+ with 165 points or more to get them. Then, tomorrow it will be 55 points. After that it’s 14 days ownership of Albion+, so I would expect away supporters to get some of those tickets. But at least the club are trying to offer the...

    [Albion] Away Ticket Allocation - Your Thoughts

    I’ve been Albion+ this season, will be a ST holder next season. The plan is to work our way up to be able to go to some of the closer away games. I’m happy with the current system: we know what we have to do to be able to go to those games and - over a few years - that’s what we’re working...

    [Football] Toxic Male Aggression

    [Misc] Have you ever discharged a firearm?

    Thought there might be more in the "never" category with me. Guess I'm for it when the apocalypse comes.

    [Technology] What is the most impressive thing you have seen AI do?

    In the field I work in, if you ask AI for a high level summary or to do reading comprehension it's great. If you ask specifics and details it is only any good if it has been specifically training on the right level of depth on the correct data. What matters is that training. While there is no...

    [Football] City game replay...

    The game is now on Thursday the 25th, but it might not be: https://www.brightonandhovealbion.com/news/3939689/premier-league-matches-moved-in-april/ I can't go on the 25th, but I can on the 24th. I guess - if City get to the semi-final - that it's 50/50 if they play on the Tuesday or Wednesday...

    [Albion] Record season ticket renewals (again)

    I bought our first new shiny season tickets this morning. There was a reasonable amount of choice - but mostly near the near/pitch rain zone or the haunted area (E1H). As we were buying we wondered what characters from the “unbearable neighbour” thread we’d soon be seeing close up.

    [Albion] Burnley away tickets next week

    I’m hoping to go, so if STH can not buy all the tickets that would be helpful.
