    Enough negativity - what would you do to fix things?

    Good post. It's always a case of beware of what you wish for. Throwing everyone out will change nothing. We are not going to get top 6 so it does not really matter where we come just so long as we aren't relegated. Right now there are 6 points between 21 and 11 in the table. If we can...

    Where is everyone going for there 2014 holiday?

    My plans are... 1 - work out where each of the previous 56 posters lives 2 - buy a stripey jumper, mask and big bag with SWAG written on it 3 - go off and visit each property when each person is away oh - and visit Dalyan in Turkey at some point over the next 6 months...

    New presenter of "The Sky at Night"

    It's not called a bus replacement service. It's called a rail replacement bus service. Which is correct. That's my pedantry quota filled for today.

    House of fools on in 5 mins BBC 2

    I love V&B right from Big Night Out days. Seen them on tour several times blah blah blah... but I was slightly underwhelmed by HoF. Of course they are brilliant, great at being surreal and so on but I found some of it a bit predictable. Some of the stuff was funny, Matt Berry is excellent and...

    SIGNING: Monakana Signs Development Contract Until June 2015

    First senior goal at Preston was against Palace. If I believed in fate....

    In what DECADE did you FIRST see an Albion HOME game ?

    Argh! Pressed the wrong button. Put the 1990s but it was the 80s. 1989. 2-0 Albion v Port Vale.

    Bridcutt sold £3.25million. (with Sunderland kit picture)

    Six months ago I would have been gutted if Bridcutt left. After his extended period out and the overall solid performance of the team despite injuries to (so called) key players I am more than happy if he wants to go. His performances since coming back have not been up to the standards of the...

    Applause for away fans

    With you on that. Getting large swathes of the ground making a loud noise for sustained periods is tough but not surprising. Clap the away fans, do your nonsense Mexican waves but first and foremost - get behind the team.

    Applause for away fans

    Clap if you want - nothing wrong with a bit of respect if it makes you feel better. Or would you rather we all piled round to the south stand for a pwopa nawty ruck?

    Turing FINALLY given Royal Pardon

    I've no idea what the etymology of the phrase is and to be fair it's not a very precise term but by whatever mechanism, social osmosis or otherwise, the term is there and is generally understood to refer to the period contemporary with Turing's work. Regardless, since the term "modern" is...

    So who are Brighton's Rich and Famous? Fat Boy and Zoe and...?

    Doesn't he actually live in the East Preston/Kingston Gorse area?

    Turing FINALLY given Royal Pardon

    Sadly not so different to the attitude of a very small minority that allows someone like Ian Watkins to get mothers to allow the abuse of their own children.

    Turing FINALLY given Royal Pardon

    An abacus is not just a set of beads with which you can count. In the right hands it can be used for complex calculations, computations you might say. Fair enough, presenting the abacus is perhaps stretching the point towards the realms of pedantry but it's also fair to say that there...

    Turing FINALLY given Royal Pardon

    Computing goes back millennia - right back to the abacus.

    O/T - Electrical Installation Certificate/ Part P Certificate Advice

    Typically I would expect the certificate would be in the original pricing, especially for something like a kitchen. It sounds to me like either the works were not undertaken by a person able to issue to a certificate and the builder is now having to pay for someone to come in and do it or that...

    So who are Brighton's Rich and Famous? Fat Boy and Zoe and...?

    She may have a place in Brighton but her main place is in the Richmond area. My brother did some work there.

    Eating out in Worthing

    BTTT Anyone been to Interwok recently? Was thinking of going there for a post panto nomnomnom with around 20 of us but noted the 1 star food hygiene rating from September and wondered if they have pulled their socks up yet? I know it's not stunning food but it's the sort of place our clan and...

    The "even though we were soft at the back to concede two, it's still Barnes' fault" thread

    When we saw Lita belatedly preparing to come on the speculation was either for Lopez or Conway. When Barnes went off we were stunned. If ever we needed two up front...

    Did you boo at half and/or at fulltime?

    Have to agree. First time I've not clapped. On the way home I did discuss the fact that the team have managed to keep us in contention for a play off despite the injury list and the fact that certain players like Lopez and Buckley are not anywhere near their form of last season. This is a...
