    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    The difference in the closing statements was incredible as well. I don't know how anyone can reasonably watch that and want to vote for Trump at all, let alone be passionate about it and determined to help that whopper gain power.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Absolutely it does - when Vice President Biden was on Late Night with Stephen Colbert after leaving office but before running for president, he was always referred to as the Vice President. It's a very meaningful thing to do. It carries forward to other World Leaders too, they will always refer...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    It is a sign of respect. People are referred to with the title of the highest honour they've held for the rest of their careers. I don't know if you're familiar with Pete Buttigieg, but during his presidential campaign he was known at Mayor Pete as he'd been Mayor of South Bend. Now he's...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Big time, and there are still almost 2 months until election day. Anything can happen before then - but it feels like there's real momentum behind Kamala and the campaign is building such a strong coalition.

    The ANSWERS: Retro Brighton Player Picture Quiz

    "I'm sure we had a Black fella in goal in the first half, didn't we? That's definitely not the same keeper is it? How much have I had?" My old father was so confused before the substitution was announced!

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Absolutely incredible performance from Kamala - the prosecutor in her was strong last night and made her case incredibly clearly. She is positive, passionate and hopeful for the future. What a president she will be - it's all over bar the voting and hopefully the electorate will deliver...

    Good old Leon Tesla - that's sure to stroke the ego of both despots involved.

    The ANSWERS: Retro Brighton Player Picture Quiz

    Forgive the incredibly random bounce of this thread, this appears to be the only reference to our former goalkeeper Mark Cartwright on this forum. I discovered today that he's the Technical Director at Huddersfield Town now. I heard the name and thought, "that can't be THE Mark Cartwright?!"...

    [Albion] Did we try to get Viktor Gyokeres back?

    But then Newcastle away at the start of last season happened to showcase that he can be an excellent finisher. Two brilliant goals on the break, but that feels like his strength as opposed to being in a team with slower build up. He's a merchant of chaos who thrives on ad-hoc service rather than...

    [Albion] Pascal Groß the raumdeuter - officially leaves for Dortmund :(

    He really does seem to be the sort of guy that is just excellent, wherever he is. Ability, talent and attitude levels above. He was a brilliantly kept secret for so many years but in a way I'm kind of pleased that it's out now and everyone realises what a top player he is. I might be off base...

    [Other Sport] The Albion - setting standards in other sports too

    Yes they are. The pitch will be fine. The ground staff are top of the game as well, they'll have the pitch prepped and repaired well in time for the following Albion fixture. Drama queens can clutch their pearls all they want, but it's irrelevant.

    [Albion] Did we try to get Viktor Gyokeres back?

    I think there absolutely was something in the Nunez interest but there certainly was in the Luis Diaz interest! Both of them were probably well advised to stay in Portugal and bide their time.

    [Albion] Did we try to get Viktor Gyokeres back?

    He WAS rubbish in that game and that was the final straw really. He definitely seemed to have something about his game, but there was no chance of him fulfilling his potential here. He needed to get out and play. If I were an EFL club I would be keeping an eye on the players Brighton sign...

    [Albion] Newcastle Away?

    Completely and I really annoyed my colleague talking about it non-stop on the drive! I really believe that we could be doing so much better in this country if the investment was right and the private companies were given the boot. The road network would be massively helped by the shift of...

    [News] Andrew Tate

    "Andrew Tate is a 14 year old's boy of what 'being a man' looks like". - Jimmy Carr He is an obvious parasite (Andrew Tate) but there's a market for everyone out there and it's really troubling how many hooked onto him. I have no idea what the appeal was, but there are so many people who...

    [Misc] Sorry for the indulgence

    What a beautiful cat, I'm glad she was loved and had a good life in your home. I need to collect some ashes later for my cat who died suddenly and unexpectedly, she hadn't been unwell at all but all of a sudden couldn't breathe and passed away. It is such a devastating loss.

    [Albion] Newcastle Away?

    It isn't great if I'm being honest. I recently had to drive to York for work, and pick someone up from North Lancing. Even getting to the A23 junction to leave the A27 was a hassle! There had been a crash on the M25 by the M3 junction (surprise surprise) so I took the M11 and A1 but the real...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    What's really sad is that the Biden team wanted that initially to try and shut up Orange Jesus from talking over Biden. That's come back to bite the Democratic campaign, but ultimately I'm confident that Kamala will behave as a prosecutor and put the boot in when Trump has spouted utter and...
