    [Football] Pompey

    Agree. To me Saints are just another team to beat - we aren't rivals but they do care more than they let on. The Forest one is interesting, definitely a fair wedge hate Leicester more than Derby - one of four Forest fans I know do anyway.

    [Football] Pompey

    Its been rumbling along and surfaces now and again, mainly with the older lot. They are so bloody patronising tbh, lots of them call us 'Bompey'. For me, with the new training ground etc, it's making sure they aren't poaching any local talent like they used to. Pushing them back to the SO...

    Perhaps it's the other way round more then. I spoke to a Charlton fan who spent some time in Belmarsh for punching a Palace fan for no reason. Unfortunately for him a copper saw him and rugby tackled him... Agreed I would thought Palace wouldn't bother with Millwall because of their West Ham...

    Haha. Cheers. Oh I don't want a rival, it's probably better not to have one tbh. London clubs always moan that it hinders them with all their derbies. Oh well, Yeovil may get a billionaire backer and rise again, but Weymouth have claimed them. We'll always be derby-less....

    [Football] Pompey

    Thanks for the noddy, makes a change from tinpot ;) Right about Reading, that was early 00’s mainly. When they were singing about never playing us again. Be careful about things biting you on the arse eh! Gillingham too now and again. But only when we were battling with them in league 1. Quite...

    Probably. But we get that from Saints fans usually, I think it’s an age thing. I have some family that support them so never really disliked them that much. Most of us are happy not having a proper rival.

    [Football] Pompey

    Always a little tentative posting on here as an AFCB fan - not much love for us (not that I expected much LOL)... But rivalry wise - ideally if the Bmth area was geographically where Eastbourne or Newhaven is, that would have been a great rivalry with Brighton. Then Palace would have their...

    [Other Sport] Aussie Rules Football

    Was over in Aus last July/Aug - got a ticket for Essendon - West Coast at the Marvel Stadium. Really exciting game, although the Bombers fans in front of us said it's one of the worst games you'll see all season. Ended 74-73, but low on quality apparently! Really enjoyed watching the local...

    Yesterday was awful - periods of drizzle. It's just non weather, 'Clag' basically.

    He's mad. I think he does a Parkrun on the way to our Surrey League xc races. I need all the energy I can muster for them! Nice guy, spoke to him after a recent LFOTM 5k at Hyde Pk. He wins most of them too.

    Bloody annoyed. Went to Australia in the summer and got the V50 course records at Gold Coast Main Beach, Melbourne Albert Pk & Perth WA University. What a waste of money :rolleyes:;)

    [Albion] Luton Town vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Live close to Luton and going training over there tonight - try to sample the delights of Luton town centre on a winter weekday night - quite an experience.... Not sure if you still get the George III as the away pub, or you might be allowed in the Whitehouse (Spoons) in the Galaxy centre.

    [Brighton] Dryrobe 'culture war': which side are you on?

    Should only really be worn post activity. These have snuck their way into cross country over the last couple of years, bit of a 'middle class stamp' really. I think they came from the winter/wild swimming scene first, then spread.

    [Other Sport] Best sportsman / athlete of all time

    Was talking to one of the sprint coaches whilst I was at a track meeting with my lot, Herne Hill Harriers. Apparently whilst amazing, Bolt was one of the laziest trainers - so wanted to do the 100 rather than the 200. So the coach said he needed to get to a certain time doing the 100 before he...
