    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    Indeed. Brighton already won the World Cup. Now let's win the AFCON and then prepare to sit back and watch Lewis Dunk win the Euros this summer...

    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    He looked like he was tiring. Was happy to see him have a good game and go off uninjured. Nice we will get to see him in the final now.

    [Albion] FA Cup Fourth Round

    Would generally always want Chelsea to lose. But removing Villa from the competition would be helpful. IF we get past Wolves, would rather be facing Chelsea than Villa.

    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    Agree, but would go further. Irrespective of whether or not it makes him a better player for brighton I just want him to win. He seems like a good lad. Works hard. Had an interesting path to where he is. And is one of us. That's enough for me. Go Simon!

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    I suppose your take on whether the (threatened) tightening up on implementation of FFP rules is the 'right' solution depends on what you think the problem is to start with. If it's just about clubs not getting into debt and not spending more than they can afford then yeah, you'll see the...

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    In principle I agree 100%. Let them sod off and do their own thing, so we can all get on with running a proper, competitive, passionate, league. But I always worry sligtly about unintended consequences (no idea what they might be in this case).

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    Only tongue in cheek in terms of being based in Saudi. But I am sure they are manouvering to be involved in some way - and very obviously seeking to build one or two teams of overpaid, ethically challenged, ex-'superstars' that will be box office (eg have players that TV viewers in India and the...

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    This, I'm afraid, remains to be tested. they've made the rght noises. Which is good. But are yet to properly nail a really powerful club - one, say, owned by a petro-state or a well connected American Billionaire. I'm hearing increasingly sympathetic noises from the media towards the newly rich...

    [Palace] Were palace injury hit?

    'browsing for bargains in an antiques shop in North Laine' 'what both sets of supporters hate being called the M23 Derby' 'All those millions banked in broadcast money and still Selhurst Park resembles something from a Charles Dickens novel.' 'Steve Parish and his fellow Palace...

    [Albion] Get The f*** In!

    From what I have seen and heard from Palace fans, I'd say parts of the away section were probably joining in as well. No wonder it sounded loud.

    [Food] The Plant based burger

    I don't have a particular axe to Grind on this. I am not veggie, let alone vegan. I do think we need to collectively eat less meat and dairy, but I am not a massive fan of the obsession with trying to recreate meat, instead of concentrating on how tasty non-meat products can be. But, given what...

    [Food] Most important aspect of a roast dinner?

    I mean...it's ALL a bit 'meh' isn't it? I understand roast dinners are a tradition for many, and a good way to get the family around the table at least once a week. Which is important. But as food? Barely counts as cooking really. More an excercise in logistics. A lot of effort for little...

    [Albion] Valentín Barco **Season Loan To Sevilla 23/08/24**

    True up to a point... That point being when/if they get hit with a massive points deduction/transfer embargo for multiple breaches of FFP etc. They might end up wishing they had a SA wunderkid on the books when they are attempting to get promoted from league 2. (let me dream)
