    [Cricket] Love the Freddy Flintoff thing with the kids

    I was interested to see you take on this as I understand that you have similar experience with post-LAC children as I do. My opinion is that money helps, for sure, but when you have a child that has suffered early trauma, then it doesn't matter how wealthy the family is that they end up growing...

    [Cricket] Love the Freddy Flintoff thing with the kids

    I've googled this now, and although the home office will take away the passports of asylum seekers (if they have one), they can still be issued a refugee travel document - although you can't travel back to your home country. I guess similar would've applied to athletes competing on the...

    [Cricket] Love the Freddy Flintoff thing with the kids

    I know, but presumably he doesn't have a valid Afghan passport seeing as he's claiming asylum from Afghanistan. I'm surprised he was even able to leave the UK without causing himself all sorts of issues getting back in.

    [Cricket] Love the Freddy Flintoff thing with the kids

    With the two lads not being able to get their visas due to Pakistani heritage, despite not travelling on Pakistani passports, I made me wonder how Adan was able to travel to India. He's been granted asylum but not citizenship yet, so that doesn't give him the right to a British passport, or...

    [Albion] James Beadle

    If he carries on his form from the Euros and early season for BHA, then chances are that we'll be getting offers for Bart next summer that are hard to turn down!

    [Albion] De Zerbi was NOT “sacked”

    I said as much at half time in the Fulham game, and lots of people thought I was on a fishing trip!

    [Albion] Jan Paul van Hecke - contracted to June 2027

    I remember more the 1-1 against CIty a couple of weeks later - where we still needed either a point or to not get heavily beaten to assure Europa League instead of Conference - and he kept Haaland fairly quiet all game.

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    With exceptionally large hands.

    [Football] Who is going down this year?

    My first thought was City and Leicester from points deductions plus one other out of Southampton, Ipswich and Everton.

    [Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

    He was brilliant at right back last season. I’d happily have there permanently if he kept that form up.

    [Albion] Rate Albion’s Summer 2024/25 transfer window

    I agree with this. Can’t really rate the window until we’ve seen how these players get on in the Premier League. Too early to over excited simply based on the money we’ve splashed out. Our best ever signings have generally been players we’ve signed for less than 10m.

    [Albion] Go on Jason Steele !!!!

    100% clean sheet record.

    Mats Hummels

    When do we need to make the 25 man squad though?

    [Albion] Mahmoud Dahoud (Loaned to VfB Stuttgart 31/01/24)

    Isn't that what it'd cost you for Sharon Botts to get her kit off for you?

    [Albion] Conrad Harder.

    That was a temporary embargo becuase we were in the same competition last season though. We can resume loans etc. in the January window.

    [Albion] Ferdi Kadioglu **Singed 27/08/24**

    It makes a lot of sense. We've spent months trying to complete this deal. The last thing we need is him then going off to play 2 nations league games against Wales and Iceland next week. I doubt FH would have been planning to use him at Arse after only one or two training sessions.

    [Music] Oasis - 2025

    Despite living in Manchester, I would rather go to watch them at Wembley. Heaton Park gigs always tend to bring out the dick heads.

    [Football] Biggest wanker?

    For me, the worst tackle has to be the one on Knockaert by a Watford player early in 2017/18. The distance he flew through the air to take him out is almost impressive.

    [Albion] Matt O Riley [26/08/24 - sings on a 5-year deal]

    Yes. It wasn't so much a tackle as a sly off-the-ball dig, if I remember correctly, and was completely missed by the ref. It was a shame as he'd had a good game that night. Definitely move on. Some of the suggestions on here are getting silly.
