    [Albion] Graham Potter's lucky scarf

    I hope he is still wearing it when the season finishes on 23rd May. And that he is still wearing it when out next campaign kicks-off in August. After all, Potterball is all about committing to an idea.

    [TV] Disney+

    Only just seen this thread. We signed up to Disney+ when it was new. We were considering leaving because of lack of new content (I'm not too fussed over star wars), however I am really enjoying Wandavision and am looking forward to 'Falcon and the Winter Solidier' and also 'Loki'. It seems...

    [Technology] Laptops for kids

    Sorry for the late reply on this thread, it makes more sense to revive an existing thread than to start a new one. I'm seriously looking at a Chromebook for my little home schooler. Does anybody use 'Seesaw' through a Chromebook? Seesaw is the app my child's school uses to send out tasks and...

    [Albion] It's my birthday according to the club, but it isn't.

    No, its MY fake birthday! (To be fair though, they knocked a couple of years off my age, and I am grateful for that!)

    [Albion] To Avoid Potter Bashing - Staying Up Tracker - 2020/21 - Game 38 Update - 1 OVER

    Hugely reassuring, but also disconcerting to know that anything other than a win in the next game, and we're back below the line. I often turn to this thread for reassurance.

    [Football] Football grounds and redevelopment.

    That was indeed the case - I think the plan was to continue if/when they returned. I do not think the new owners have yet shown the same enthusiasm for stadium development. Instead, they prefer spending their money on buying the Portuguese national team one player at a time.

    [Football] Football grounds and redevelopment.

    I thought the Wolves plans were dropped years ago... it was the project of their former owner, who himself was a developer. After the Fosun group took over, the stadium building seemed to stop. It was a good plan, whereby the whole stadium could be redeveloped one stand at a time: Rebuild the...

    [Football] Premier League Covid party players... what shoud happen?

    I have not read the whole thread (sorry), but you may remember the England v the Barbarians rugby match being cancelled in the autumn because a group of players broke the 'covid secure bubble'. The guilty players were given 10 week bans, reduced to 5 weeks for mitigation, of which 3 weeks were...

    [Albion] The "we drew at Fulham" poll...

    I voted 'dropped two points', but at the same time, I am happy with the point and would have taken a point if it were offered before the match. It just feels that we had our opportunities and didn't take them... it was a match we could (and perhaps should...) have won. My mojo is veering...

    [Albion] Christian Walton (permanent transfer to Ipswich)

    I wondered the same, so I had a look. Carl Rushworth seems to have been the regular choice for the U23s. Sanchez has played 3 times this season with the U23s and Walton has played too (but I think only once).

    [Albion] Time for Sanchez

    I wondered whether Sanchez has not been on the bench so that he can get game time with the U23s - however it seems that he has only made 3 appearances with the U23s this season (Carl Rushworth appears to have made the majority of appearances, with Walton having played too). It will be...

    [Politics] Do You Give Your Postie a Christmas Tip?

    Nope, don't have a postie. Our estate is three years old, however Royal Mail have not yet recruited anybody to deliver our post, therefore we only get post if and when somebody is willing to do overtime. Thjis means we don't have a reliable post service (at one point, we have no post for three...

    [Football] Amazon Prime football coverage

    In the Prime matches I watched last season, I found that I needed to avoid my phone as scores would flash up on my phone before they happened on the telly. However I have been watching the Autumn Nations Cup over the last month and found no issues with lag - i.e. what has happened on screen...

    To me, the question is 'do you think the other party would have paid out had they lost the bet?' If so, pay up.

    [Food] Sprouts with your Xmas dinner yes or no ?

    It's a no from me... we're having a take away on Christmas day form the local curry house. However we will be having a 'traditional' Christmas dinner both Christmas eve and Boxing day. This will have sprouts, fried in parmesan and bacon.

    [Football] Spare a Thought for all those Die Hard fans

    Watched Die Hard 1 the other night. 2&3 are both excellent, 4 is meh, but I quite like 5 for the new catchphrase "I'm on vacation"
