    [Albion] Simplistically, what do you think is our biggest problem?

    Old football adage, if you don't shoot, you don't score. Too much possession football, playing it around and around, waiting for the perfect opportunity. Just get it in and around the box and whack it. It is amazing how many PL goals are deflections.

    A few years later, when working with my Dad in the summer holidays, we used to ride to work, him on his lambretta, me on my huge Suzuki 50 cc. Power!!!!

    [Music] Brighton 1964 Rockers v Mods

    Interesting. Used to use the clips, and the Quadrophenia film in my A level Sociology classes, mods and rockers were part of the crime and deviance section. Took great delight in telling the pupils I was there, my 14 year old self resplendent in leather jacket, with red and white logo on the...

    [Football] St Joseph's football team

    No people in the know? Maybe if I changed the thread title to 'is this Lewis Dunk's grandad?' it might get a response. Any idea how to do that?

    [Football] St Joseph's football team

    I see on Wiki that Lewis went to Varndean school. Thats barely 2 miles from St Joeys. Locality right.

    Many apologies, St Joseph's, Hollingdean, Brighton. Lewis is a local lad, this is a local school.

    [Football] St Joseph's football team

    Lockdown has me doing odd things. I was rummaging in the old photos box and came across this. Un:cool::cool:remarkable old school photo, St Joseph's primary 1960/1. However, to the teachers right is a player called Jimmy Dunk. Any NSC ers or old Joeys know if he might be a relative of Lewis...

    [Football] Egypt international Adam El Abd

    Egypt international Adam El Abd (BBC description) scores winning penalty for Wycombe tonight. Still proving his worth, good club man for many years and giving his all for his last employers. :).

    [Albion] Player Ratings vs Watford

    Poor showing today. Watford clearly more committed, faster, stronger and more streetwise. Ryan made a couple of good saves, but his distribution was poor, not helped by lack of targets for clearances. Dunk was forced into too many long balls, mainly because the midfield was missing. Bong did a...

    [Football] 1966 World Cup memories

    Just finished O levels, working for Charlie Forte in West Street as a holiday job. I think the manageress liked me because I was not down to work whenever an England game was on. I even got a split shift for the final, finish at 2, start again at 6. West street was lively that evening.

    [Other Sport] Rottingdean Pitch & Putt

    Sad it is closed. My dad and his older brother, both Rottingdean born and bred, used to meet to play there every week when they were in their later seventies. Kept them fit and they could relive their younger days of living and playing there as children during the second world war. Hope it...

    [Football] Safe-standing: Government begins talks over possible review

    Safe standing has to come in. It is so frustrating when people are jumping up in front of sitters, then take an age to sit again. All miss the action. I spent my youth standing on the east terrace at the Goldstone, and loved every minute of it (except when it p***ed down with rain). Best way...
