    [Albion] Anyone tried 'The Dugout' seats yet???

    The Dugout is really West Stand Plus. The Tunnel Club is comparable to the best lounges.

    [Music] Johnny Marr claims The Smiths trademark?!

    I like the music they both have made - and make - but I wouldn't see either live or go to them for their political views or legal positions. The Smiths were great, but it's better they don't reform for any cash-driven tour.

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    Impressive work. Must have taken a lot of planning and building of trust (didn't the terrorists investigate a single one?).

    [Misc] Does WFH (working from home) reduce productivity?

    I like it for a few days. You can concentrate on work that involves fewer meetings and get stuff done. But after around five days in a row at home I start to lose motivation, work less well, and pay less attention to it. I much prefer a hybrid form of working, with three days a week in the...

    [Travel] Driving in Europe (Holland/Gemany) advice, experiences etc

    We had a great time at Europa-Park theme park in the pre-covid years. Sounds like that could be on your agenda....

    [Football] Road to World Cup 2026 - Official Thread

    I thought the situation with Ben White this time was that the new England manager didn't contact him or ask - just assumed he still wasn't available. And BW for his part didn't do anything either. Maybe if one of the parties tries to talk to the other, then something might change. But if they...

    Tallinn , Estonia

    I'd love to go back, but also think I wouldn't recognise the place. Here it is in 1991.

    [Albion] Newcastle Away?

    Promised we’d go for the weekend to this one. Can’t go this weekend. Oh well, hopefully next year.

    Tallinn , Estonia

    I went soon after independence in ‘91: Quite soviet, liked hard currency, positive atmosphere, nice autumn leaves, didn’t investigate the women that much. The prisons then were probably a little harsher than today. It had changed a lot when I went back in ‘95. Suspect different again now.

    [Albion] Have we, at some point in our seasons in the EFL/EPL, occupied every position between 1-92?

    More interesting, I think, would be the team that has occupied most different places at the end of the season. We've never been in the top five of the top division, for example, while Arsenal haven't been in any places in the third division. But which team has managed to fill most final season...

    Doctor Who

    Fantastic to hear - I’ve only seen all the episodes through in order around five times, so plenty more times to enjoy them yet!

    [News] Nick Cave

    I sat next to him on a bench in Brighton station, maybe around 2010. He had long black hair. Some people you can date the year by their hairstyle or colour, but with Nick that's not really possible. I like some of his music - bought all his albums in the late 1980s and early 1990s - but know...

    [Football] Dynamic Pricing

    It’s a perfectly fine idea for most things. If the plan is full stadiums, prices will have to go down too. Ticket prices will start high and if there is demand they’ll go higher. If everyone says “sod that” the prices will reduce. But if fans say they HAVE to be at every game, they’ll pay a...

    Lost my nice seats for some slightly less nice seats.

    [Politics] Small boats, smashing the criminal gangs and the UK job market

    Migration is supply and demand. There’s plenty of supply and the perception is that there is demand in the UK. To do something about it - should you want to - you need to address that demand in both perception and fact.

    [Albion] Chelsea v Palace - what do you want?

    A combination of the above. A draw. Comedy misses. Comedy own-goals. Sendings-off. Red cards for the whole of both benches. Game abandoned. Don't want injuries, except comedy ones. Stadium destruction. A telegram from the FA informing them of points deductions. A delegation from UEFA...
