    [Technology] Tablet computer recommendations please

    Sorry to hear you're struggling with your mobility. Is your preference to watch them on a device? Samsung phones let you cast to a samsung TV for example. If you do go for a sub £300 tablet make sure the manufacturer is committing to update to the latest android platform otherwise they...

    [Football] Best Manager?

    Not sure there's too many examples. Maybe Redknapp, had a pretty decent playing career and done fairly well in management. Southgate probably the most successful but his domestic managerial record isn't particularly great. Maybe....Alan Ball and Scott Parker? Basically scraping the barrel.

    [Albion] Premier League 30/12/23 - 2/1/24

    I cant think of many teams who have made us so look poor under RDZ, Perhaps Villa away. We have spells of looking incredible in almost all game.

    [Albion] How many players away from a top 4/ title challenge?

    Not a big fan of what it's in football but I suspect we'd only a be a few points better off had Mac, Caidedo and Colwill stayed. Much like Newscastle we'd probably still have picked up quite a few injuries. We were fantastic last season but we were helped by a number of top teams having poor...

    [News] Actor Tom Wilkinson RIP

    Very sad, starred in some great films and I feel a little underrated as an actor. One of the few characters I warmed to in the full monty and I really liked him in this beautiful fantastic.

    Wickes had a sale on sandstone pavers so made a stepping-stone path as a Christmas project. Run out of jobs now!

    [News] New Year honours 2024

    Don't disagree with regards to the food although they cater to a market that might otherwise not be able to enjoy a meal out in difficult times. With regards to beer, they are far from perfect but when many pubs are moving away from cask their pubs provide a good selection of well kept beers...

    [Albion] Am I being paranoid? De Zerbi

    Love RDZ and what he's doing for the Albion but I think he needs to drop the player sales narrative from his interviews, it's slightly Poyet-esque and wearing a bit thin. It must be frustrating but all but a few PL teams are selling clubs when a bigger club come in for a player. He has been...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

    Disappointing to concede two when we dominated for 80 minutes but I don't think they'll be many more entertaining games this season in the PL. Spurs finished very strongly but thought we defended very well. Also great to see Pervis back but I thought our starting 11 looked very decent, just...

    [Albion] BHAFC – and football – in 2050?

    25 years is a long time in football. I wouldn't mind betting we'll exceed our current level as well as drop down to the third tier and back up again. I'd like to think we could pick up a League/FA cup in the process

    [Football] Chelsea V Palace - what result do you want?

    Colwin always looks pretty decent when I see him play for Chelsea but agree on Caicedo, look a shadow of his former self. I think he would be showing his world class had he gone to Liverpool. I'm a big fan of Gallagher, I don't understand why the general consensus on here was 'no thanks' he...

    I've had a very busy run up to Christmas but have managed to spend some time reading through this thread. Blown away by the responses, I thought there would be handful of opinions and experiences shared. This forum really is an incredible place. Merry Christmas all 🎅 🎄

    [Help] Gardeners Question Time.

    I did my last mow in early November now its a bit too long but not long enough for a late mow. Aa long as you didn't cut it too short I'm sure it'll be fine. Our lawn recovered well from all sorts of off season abuse.

    [Albion] So who are our targets this window?

    I'd also suggest that we recall as many players as we can in January to give Roberto more options.

    [Albion] So who are our targets this window?

    I'd like us to use the loan market to bolster our squad. Seems a little knee jerk to bring in loads of permanent signings when we have so much talent in the treatment room. As players become available we will get a massive boost throughout the season There must be a lot of talent available...

    [Albion] Positives from Today (Palace Away)

    Could being the operative word. I think one was worthy of more than a 3 second check but we'd have been absolutely livid if they were given against us. I thought the referee had a good game overall.
