    [News] The Southdown & Eridge Hunt's traditional boxing day meet has been stymied

    As a resident just outside Lewes, I've always been put off bringing friends and family into the town on Boxing Day by the Hunt. The uneatable pursued by the unspeakable, supported by a handful of forelock tuggers. Delighted to say, this year I will bring a dozen or so in for the wheelbarrow...

    [Travel] Incredibly boring train travel logistics question

    Your best bet is to look now at Advance single Angmering-London then Advance single back from London-Haywards Heath from where your Albion ticket will be valid.

    [Football] Imagine going to Blackpool for no reason...

    Stop banging on about the old days and how we had it so bad, you'll be alienating the younger generation of fans. No wonder you've got no likes on this!

    [Albion] No trains for Brentford

    That does look challenging for you, given your work requirements on the Thursday. However, bus between Brighton station and the Amex would be perfectly feasible. Post-match, your best option would be to walk through Falmer Village to the A27 westbound stop and pick up a limited stop 28/29/729...

    [Albion] Arsenal and Palace tickets

    Having first been to Palace in 76/77 it does finally feel like I've been there and got the T-Shirt (Knockeart on the front; Maupay on the back). The Arfur is such a horrible deathtrap I can't believe it gets it's safety certificate renewed. That, the kettling, Thursday night at 8 before Xmas...

    [Other Sport] World Baseball Classic & Major League Baseball 2023

    Spot on. D-backs had an incredible season and should take more credit than the Rangers in terms of Moneyball metrics per $ spent. I don't follow the National League in anywhere near the detail I do the AL but I know that NL West division is ridiculously competitive with the behemoth Dodgers...

    [Other Sport] World Baseball Classic & Major League Baseball 2023

    37 years I've been avidly following the Rangers since I spent a year in Dallas re-planning it's bus network. All 3 of my sons follow them too and it was sweet to Facetime with two of them tonight to share the incredible moment when we clinched the World Series for the first time in franchise...

    [Albion] Amsterdam by road

    Thanks for advice for this, we are having a leisurely drive from the 0920 Shuttle on the Wednesday, coming back via a stop in Antwerp on the Saturday, staying on the Dutch coast at Zandvoort, 30 mins by train into Centraal. A supplementary, can anyone recommend an EV charging location in the...

    [Albion] Ferguson out of Ireland squad (Injury)

    With Welbz also injured we just have to hope it is minor and he is fit for OT.

    [Albion] AEK Athens

    I think the bigger risk is that away allocations are limited in response to this, either by the Greek authorities or by UEFA. It's only a risk, but an additional one to the smaller allocation at AEK, and means I've chosen not to gamble on advance flights for this one.

    [Albion] Hating Chelsea

    Had a rare foray onto talkShite this morning as they had a football finance expert - no, not our one - saying he thought CFC are b***ered for 23/24 on FFP already, but that Boehly had priced in a suitable fine to their financial planning. However, since the regs now permit points deductions...

    [Albion] Is it my hearing, or was the PA system awful on Saturday?

    WSU Block H, it was much worse than last season, inaudible. It's important that the club sorts this as it's a condition of the safety certificate, for evacuations etc. You would expect this to have been thoroughly tested and renewed over the summer, but audibility in an empty stadium must be...
