    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    The election is going to get to the right outcome, but it needs everyone on the ground to keep doing their work and keep registering voters and then turn them out. In places like Georgia, they're going to need a huge margin in some districts and it could make the difference. Dump the Trump!

    [Football] Chelsea - what a bunch of tubes

    In terms of the sale of the hotels, I presume that means they now can no longer consider them assets and any revenues generated from them can not count towards future PSR compliance? I would hope that this is very much a pound today rather than two pounds kind of behaviour and have actually...

    [Football] Dynamic Pricing

    The reality is that this isn't unreasonable. The clubs can charge whatever they want to for their tickets, but it's up to the consumer whether they pay it or not. I often get late tickets for matches because I can't plan too far in advance, on the day of a game I will know whether I can and will...

    [Football] Would Man City take a 100 pt deduction tomorrow.

    I think Leicester getting away with their breaches sets the tone. A lot of the charges against City are the "spirit of the law" rather than actual black and white rule breaches, as I understand it - and a lot of it is quite repetitive/duplicative. I think it's fairly certain that City will...

    [Albion] The 2024-25 Loanee Tracker Thread

    Pele was playing and scoring for Brazil at 17, though!

    Danny Cashman - our best prospect!

    Interesting how few of these boys have had a career in the professional game. Obviously, some exceptions with Hudson-Odoi, Anthony Gordon, Nathan Collins and Curtis Jones. Oliver Skipp is also having a career in the Premier League, although not for much longer as he's awful and being found out.

    [Albion] Crawley

    Well, the ruling said it hadn't been seen by the referee.

    [Albion] Crawley

    The ref saw it and didn't feel it needed further action at the time so nothing can be done retrospectively. It is clearly appalling - we've just got to wait for karma to step in.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    I think it might be. I find it so incredibly distasteful, I know it's not out of character or a lone example, but it just feels so obviously different from other incredibly tasteless and classless things he's done. There's just something about it that sits so badly with me. And then the staff...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    That's ridiculous. To the point of not even worth getting into. :ffsparr:

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Without doubt the worst thing he's done. He has absolutely no sense at all of where he is, no sense of respect for the fallen and none of them have any regard for the other graves around them. It's dreadful and a total lack of leadership. I get that that family wanted him there, that's their...

    [Albion] Bart Verbruggen SINGS a 5-year deal

    In the context of that post I was, yes - which is clumsy wording because I don't intend to call Steele a clown. Graeme Smith was a clown. Steele is a very competent goalkeeper playing well above his standard but giving his best, obviously being a good character and generally being sound. He is...

    [Albion] Bart Verbruggen SINGS a 5-year deal

    No. He should be spending his time training and then watching the top goalkeepers in the world (there currently aren't all that many, looking at some of the clowns donning the gloves for supposedly top clubs - Onana for United can barely move!) to make sure he becomes one of them. He can have...

    [Albion] Bart Verbruggen SINGS a 5-year deal

    Bart's a serious goalkeeper, forget all the rotation. He'll play every League game now unless he's not available and that's how it should be. Having a top goalkeeper will make a huge difference to our results this season and just improving that one position will get us in the top 8. To be fair...

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    This is the one I'm most concerned about, I don't believe in the player. But I do believe in the club and the algorithm that identified him, so we'll see how he goes.

    I don't think that will take off as a sequel song to Withdean to Wembley.

    [Albion] Joao Pedro - How good is he?..

    I am very surprised City didn't come and get him this summer - I assume it's because they want to take a look at him in a second season for us before making the decision. He does seem ideally suited to them, given how they used Alvarez last season. You know Haaland is the number 9, but Joao...

    [Albion] Joao Pedro - How good is he?..

    We need to enjoy him this season, because he won't be here next. Hopefully he bags another 20 goals for us this season and then goes for north of £100m and Even Ferguson is ready to inherit the number 9 shirt and take over the goal scoring burden. If not, we'll go and get ourselves another striker.

    [Albion] Toby Collyer - move to Manure

    I thought he looked absolutely fantastic, comfortable playing passes with either foot and great energy to get about the pitch. He was bursting forward and covered a lot of ground - there's a lot to his game and I feel pretty confident that he's going to get plenty of game time this season. Last...

    [Albion] Yasin Ayari

    He's got to score there, no question about it. But overlooking that, he was excellent in the game and looks a real prospect for us. I am pleased we didn't loan him out, he looks ready to play a part and will probably benefit from training with the squad and being at our club. Not all players...
