    [Drinking] Dark Star to leave Sussex

    I'm afraid I know what happened, it was entirely within the laws of business, but not respectful or right IMO. Confidential, can say nbo more. :(

    [Drinking] Dark Star to leave Sussex

    The way the originators were treated...the corporate takeover.... utter disgrace. Simple lesson: Beer, music - DIY, keep it small, run it yourself, have fun. Football, it gets more complicated :)

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2022/23 Edition

    Bromsgrove Sporting v Nuneaton Borough Saturday in between gigs in Stourbridge and Malvern.

    [Cricket] T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia

    I never cease to marvel at the way cricket shoots itself in the foot over the weather. Big crowds in the sunshine with nothing to watch because of a 'wet outfield'. 'Bad light' stopping games when there are floodlights available. But this surely takes the biscuit. A Cup Final which might not...

    [Albion] Paul Winstanley joins Chelsea as Director of Global Talent and Transfers

    I think Potter may already be in trouble. I have heard that Boehly is talking about wanting to sign Cristiano Ronaldo, about wanting 'celebrity' players, and that is the absolute opposite of Potter's team ethic. If the 'owner' is serious about this there is a direct conflict already. Chelsea's...

    [TV] Celebrity

    I would rather eat a pubic hair pizza while drinking Carling and listening to Coldplay live in Selhurst Park than watch that :)

    [Albion] Mitoma

    The chorus of 'Turning Japanese' by the Vapors occurs as a chant for him, or it did to me anyway as he ran Chelsea ragged! (Apologies to young people, although it's probably been in an advert by now)

    [Football] Holstein Kiel

    Played there loads, not much to report really, but Husum, a seaside town not far away is absolutely beautiful and well worth a visit.

    [Politics] Matt Hancock and the kangaroo testicles

    Matt Hancock and the Kangaroo Testicles. That is a great name for a band.

    [Albion] Boogate - The Positives

    I neither listen to talk radio nor read the kind of mind-rotting tabloids which exist purely to give people something slightly more interesting to do than picking their nose, but I’m informed they are fed up with us for booing Potter. They can do one. Cap-doffers to the ‘Big Six’, complacent in...

    [Albion] I needed that, now I'm over it and wish Potter the best

    I share the sentiment, as long as he doesn't try and take Trossard and Caicedo in January, in which case he can do one again. I absolutely glory in the result. But the whole Potter/Chelsea episode is purely a symptom of the disease, which will reach the most vomit-inducing apex in Qatar in a few...

    [Politics] Eddie Izzard

    The bright new board seems to have persuaded me to get involved in 'political' threads rather than Albion ones, just once. I come here to write about the Albion. If you want the other stuff it's on my Facebook page, every day. That's the only plug for it I'll do on here and this is the only...

    [Music] Morrisey at The Palladium

    I loathe Morrissey - always have done - just loathe him a bit more now. The Spectator is a spineless, semiliterate piece of toilet paper for thick right wing upper class twits, a Sun for Rees Moggs and Softy Walters. I met former editor Matthew d'Ancona once around the time of the collapse of...

    [Football] It's called getting older

    More fired up than I was 40 years ago. Done by far my best 2 albums in my 60s. Cycle to Falmer and back from Southwick every home game. Speak for yourself you old git. :)

    [Football] Love the Goldfish, hate the water....

    That's how it is for me now. Spot on. The alternative was to walk away and I am never doing that.

    [Albion] Paul Winstanley joins Chelsea as Director of Global Talent and Transfers

    Hi mate. My thoughts are just my thoughts: I'm not advocating a 'walk away' campaign in the slightest, that would be ridiculous. I'm incredibly proud of what we have achieved and the legacy it hands on to people a quarter our age who have a completely different concept of what it means to be an...

    [Albion] Paul Winstanley joins Chelsea as Director of Global Talent and Transfers

    Booing? Certainly. I have always loathed Chelsea anyway, and am sickened beyond belief by the whole episode. But it is the logical result of the way modern football operates. Everyone's feelings about it will obviously be different. These are mine: two posts on my Facebook page over the last...

    [Albion] Dick Knight stripped of BHAFC presidency for 10 games

    It is all completely, utterly ridiculous - like the away ticket ID business, the ridiculous fees and bureaucracy to share season tickets and the patronising, selective and nonsensical way we football fans are treated compared to fans of other sports. Dick got annoyed about it, don't blame him...

    [Albion] Happy 65th birthday Attilla The Stockbroker

    Cheers everyone. 65 and not in any way retiring as those who know me well are aware :) It has been an incredible privilege (and a lot of hard work!) to earn my living for 40 years from the words and music I'd have done as a hobby anyway. And I echo Lenny/Ian's words absolutely - the Albion, and...
