    [Football] Dorking Wanderers manager’s honest post match interview

    I'm not sure he's someone I'd have a pint with, seems a bit obnoxious but what an incredible story and journey they've had under his tenure. A town of around 11k (17k as a conurbation) yet are attracting crowds that much larger towns and clubs would struggle to get. Would love it if they defied...

    [Brighton] Council to discuss stadium for the women's team.....

    Would love to see the Withdean upgraded with permanent covered stands but I feel like we might be near the peak of popularity of the women's game, I appreciate that won't be the popular opinion but I can't see us averaging and sustaining 5k plus crowds. Love to be proven wrong though. A ground...

    [Albion] The international break has come at a good time

    Hopefully RDZ gets a chance to see his family, can't imagine how it would be to spend so much time away from your kids!

    [Albion] Away fans in the home stands

    That's ridiculous!

    [Albion] Would you take 7th place, if offered now?

    I'd take 10th and getting out of the group stage TBH. I imagine we will have to contend with quite a few injuries and fatigue in the coming months.

    [Albion] Away fans in the home stands

    Sitting in the home end with the away team's shirt on is ridiculous, regardless of how you conduct yourself. I'd go as far as saying they should be refused entry.

    Aside from the sending off yesterday Bissouma looks to be back to his best.

    [Football] Postecoglou and Spurs

    I've always felt a bit indifferent about Spurs but find myself getting a bit of a soft spot for them under Ange Postecoglou. I know its early in the season but he's done an incredible job reinvigorating Spurs particularly after losing Kane in the summer. A likeable chap who plays a very...

    [Albion] Apparently it's no longer safe at the Albion ?

    Been discussed before but I suspect its done because players like mitoma were being targeted by people looking to sell on. These individuals can be quite pushy and players are often given grief for not obliging. Plenty of oppertunity for real fans to get signatures at organised events or by...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool *** Official Match Thread ***

    Can't see anything but a defeat today unfortunately, just need to keep the score down and regroup after the international break.

    [Help] Gardeners Question Time.

    I always go down the sowing route rather than turf, need to be patient and protect from birds/feet though obviously.

    [Albion] Alexis Mac Allister returns!

    Always hurts when player leaves us for a bigger club/project but IMO opinion he left us in the right manner. I also think that he was incredibly respectful of us when he was in the spotlight after the world Cup win, paying tribute to our contribution to his success and not dropping hints to...

    [Football] Pompey

    I get some pleasure seeing them in the third tier but part of me would quite like a season that saw Us, Portsmouth, Southampton and Bournemouth in the top division.

    [Albion] Have we been found out?

    You could be right, I just felt that Steele waiting for openings with his foot on the ball for what seemed like 15 seconds on one occasion and very negative passing from the back in the early exchanges added to our nerves. For whatever reason we were poor in the first 20 mins and I don't...

    [Albion] Have we been found out?

    I'm not sure about being found out but the first 15 minutes or so against Marseille we were inviting them onto us and they were having none of it, they were disciplined and as a result we were very nervy and offered little. I'd like it if we adapted our approach a little. I'm an advocate of our...

    [Albion] Are we going to get out of group?

    I think it will be difficult but I fancy us for one of the play off spots. I dont see us as having the depth of squad or experience to go deep in the competition but finishing second and drawing a giant in the play offs would be incredible and if win that who knows.

    [Albion] The elephant in the room - Our defensive record

    1st draw in something like 15 competitive matches that last one against arguably the world's greatest team kind of suggests it's either champagne or razor blades under RDZ. I'll take that but after Villa and the first half today I'm going to have to do a better job of preparing myself for the lows!

    [Albion] Olympique de Marseille vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Lamptey was incredible tonight. One of his stand out performances of his 3 years with us.

    [Albion] Olympique de Marseille vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Would have taken that result before kick off but we can't keep only tuning up at half time. Marseille we're for the taking tonight, we made it easy for them in the first 40.
