    [Football] New European Format

    Ok this seems change one but the UEFA bank accout holders want, I dont understand how this is fair to anyone. If I have understood the groups are gone, there are groups of 8 playing 4 home and 4 away, and the points gained feed into an amalgamted table of all the other teams. 1-8 are...

    [Albion] Low Block is our Achilles heel

    given that we had NINE first team players out last night, all this talk of "being found out" and unable to play against a low block, is, for me at least, simply bollox. At least to the extent that all teams can striggle against it, I dont think we are worse in that respect than many other...

    [Football] Bournemouth new club badge... just awful...

    quick search reveals Bourmouths old crests- they do appear to hav a history of bloody awful badges . looks like the f***ing awful "wella man" current one, isnt as recent as a lot thought-it goes back to 1972 in a very similar style who knew this tough? . It also contains the silhouette of...

    [Albion] Trains innit

    i really dont understand your ire here. Matchday transport is vallid for 3 hours after the match, that is quite clear, is well publisised , has been the same since the stadium opened I believe and gives plenty of time for a couple of drinks and still use your ticket. If you choose to stay past...

    [Albion] Sheffield United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I broke mine cycling 5 months ago, still hurts, i have a limp (possibly permanant) , doing physio every day, have metal rods inside the bone, it will improve some more, but it will never be the same again, some times by the end of the day I can barely get up the stairs. I was given an 8 month...

    [Albion] Sam Jewell

    I seem to recall that when Winstanley left for Chelsea, and Ashworth for Newcastle there were lots of doom mongers. There were a few however,who said that the effect on Brighton would be minimal , as these positions were long term stategists rather than concerned with immediate transfer...

    [Palace] #cpfc

    surley the "on the pitch" can only be interpreted as being against playing decisions, which are (were) made by Roy We all wish Roy well, and the rivalary is mainly pantomine twice a year ,Roys health is much more important, but I am expecting lots of Palace tweets and posts now trying to...

    [Other Sport] Superbowl tix prices

    Not behind a paywall, so i have copied and pasted Crazy money- absolutley no chance for "normal" fans to go. Though I have no idea what the usual price for a ticket to a regular season game is. MONEYWATCH How much are 2024 Super Bowl tickets? See prices for average, cheapest and most...

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    i really dont understand this oft repeated line of "3 teams worse than them" bollox. Its a league, the whole premise of the league is to be better than other teams. Other than financial doping the only reason man city won so many titles is that 19 other teams were worse than them. The only...

    [Politics] UK state pension age will soon need to rise to 71, say experts

    There is no simple solution to this, the simple fact is, that when set up the state pension would kick in on retirement, and be paid for 5-10 years. The % of the population claiming the pension at any time was a fraction of what it is now. Now people retire and can expect 15-25 years claiming...

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    what a difference between Brighton and Palace. Away drubbing for both teams, Brighton fans dissapointed, stay to the end to show their support, players go and applaud them Palace fans dissapointed, leave at half time, those that remain shout and swear at the players who went over, and swear and...

    [Misc] Fly over Brighton (from Shoreham Airport)

    I cant recall the cost, but it wasnt overly expensive, I took my Mum on a helicopter ride from Shoreham, went along the coast, and flew over the Amex on the way back. Was a great trip. Well worth it

    [Albion] When will our fans turn?

    Being in control of our sales is the model that we follow though, Buy at a low price, or develop through acadamy , keep and sell at a profit when the time is right both for club and player

    [Albion] When will our fans turn?

    I dont think the majority of our current fans will "turn" , but what may well happen, is that over time more and more of the fanbase will be made up of those who can only remember us as a Premier league club. Given that we have been at Falmer over a decade, most of the under 15 year olds won't...

    [Albion] Albion rise to 23rd in Deloitte world money league

    Quite simply because of the money from Broadcast rights, which make up the vast majority of income, and wouldnt be substantially different from any of the clubs outside the "big six" (or 7 now Newcastle have sold their soul)

    [Albion] Potter- what’s he up to?

    I think this sums up Palaces problem eactly, the whole set up, is for a defensive minded style of play, and has been for a decade. It does the job of keeping them comfortably in the prem hovering between 15-10th, no real threat of relegation, no real chance of Europe. Palace fans have now grown...

    i dont think Pupils become teachers is apt, it indicates that we were indeed their pupils. I dont think we have learned anything from them, other than how NOT to run a football club

    [Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

    Can I ask what you were expecting from him that he wasnt delivering before the injury? He had started well, was getting better and better, and had started scoring goals. Were you expecting a Messi type masterclass ebverytime he was playing? we got him on loan because he had a few things to put...

    [Other Sport] Cycling geeks

    sorry to see this, I would avise getting yourself checked out though, just to be on the safe side. It seems that the biggest danger in cycling is now external factors outside the riders controll- pot holes, other road users, wayward pets, pedsestrians, all combining to make life hazardous for...
