I think what the OP was trying to say before he was right royally booted from behind was, that if the likes of Swansea, Norwich, Reading and to a lesser degree Southampton can win promotion with no superstars, and a reasonable budget, then there is no reason why we cannot either.
OK so we...
No you are all wrong!
The good news is that Mr Mark Farrington is back in town, and is more than prepared to come back for half his current salary of £9000 per ANNUM from B&Q!
The bad news is that he is injured. So nothing new there then!
Please forgive me, but why on earth has this piece of artwork not already become folklore?
Maybe I have missed something glaringly obvious, why else has this excellent idea and excellent example of fans creativity not been taken up by the powers that be weeks ago?
Instead of taking up this...
What a difference a positive team selection can make?
Clearly Gus was just stringing us along by getting Billy on loan, and selecting some players who did not seem up to this level.
The Vicente issue is more confusing though. For weeks I have been looking forward to his majestic play, only for...
I know it is easy in hindsight to say that we should have kept Murray, but that misses the point entirely. Without his goals, defensive headers and all round play, we would not have been promoted last season.
Simply, all this 'activity' is missing from the team right now. To be fair to Billy he...
I'm dismayed to say that Gus said in an interview last week that we will sit down with 'the elusive one' at the end of the week and see what is best for both parties.
Annoyingly, the tone was that there was an opportunity that he may be 'encouraged' to extend his loan period.
It must be...
Personally, my 'concern' is that last season we got embroiled in a 'who is best' contest with Southampton, and by winning the league we naively claimed the crown.
This season, with similar crowds, but noticeably less money, Southampton have shown by being 15 points ahead at this point, that...
The question raised was not a snipe as mentioned by somebody, but more of a question of player funding.
According to the lovely Mr Ashley on Tyneside, stadium rights are the only way he can fund his club's ambitions. Now we all know what a prat he is but it does raise a small question...
In these days of UEFA's Financial Fair Play, it seems a little strange that nobody knows for sure publicly how much the deal is worth over what length of period.
Hum!
All the understandable uproar on Tyneside about the lovely Mr Ashley re-naming St james' Park reminded me that there was not to my recollection an annoucement as to how much we recd for Falmer being 'named' as The Amex.
Can anyone shed any light on this subject?
Hi Insider,
I am aware of a few threads on here commenting on the pre-match music, for our part our family are generally in favour of the current mix of so called stirring music and popular footage shown on the screen.
We do just have a couple of points.
Sitting in the East Stand, it seems...
Yes the man is quality...when he plays. Which is the point the OP and many have made on here.
No-one wants to think or talk bad about the guy, but the time has come when he needs to show us why we gave him a lucrative contract by performing on the pitch.
I'm bored with the 'he's nearly fit'...
Yes we are raising money for a worthy cause, but too many auctions price out the average fan.
By having several items at one time, I am hoping to address this popular complaint.
At the end of the day, the more 'fans' who get involved now, the more will support us as we move forward with other...
Thank you for the support and suggestion Matt. I forgot to mention that Peter has also signed a couple of different 'Albion' books if anybody is interested with Christmas fast approaching.
For details, PM me.
Dear all on NSC,
Whilst over here in the summer, the legend that is Peter Ward very graciously signed some items to be auctioned to raise essential funds for The Royal Alex Children's Hospital in Brighton.
In time for Christmas, I have now listed the shirts and casual shirts, signed by Peter...
Hi all,
As we approach Remembrance Sunday, does anyone still have a copy of the photo where our beautiful new stadium is in the background, and the foreground is a mass of striking red poppies, that they could throw up on here please?
I was looking to have it as a screensaver to show the kids...
Once again with virtually no service to talk of, CMS just kept on going. His chase down after 80 minutes in front of the North stand was classic CMS. If only he had someone to play off (Paynter sadly showed nothing for me yesterday) CMS would surely have us soaring again with his goals.
Other...
