A year ago tomorrow I was run over by a drink driver, 5 times over the limit. Broke both my legs above and below the knee, seven ribs, collar bone, fractured my skull, etc lost the use of my left side and was told I wouldn't ever walk again. Mid April this year I walked.

Well done for walking again Starry - hope everything goes well for you in 2005:clap2: (hopefully not for Leeds at Brighton's expense though - maybe both of us stay up??)

-Cardiff
-Swindon away
-West Ham away
-Forest away, and more specifically pouring my can of drink over the roof and open windows of a car driven by a fat, bitter and abusive Forest fan on the way out.

Low- the impending realisation that the club really does appear to be up shit creek financially, and the fact that an awful lot of people on here seem to be more interested in moaning about ultimately irrelevant things like ticket allocations and the alleged mismanagement of the club.

From my understanding, we are in deeper water than we've ever been, not to put too fine a point on it, and the people complaining about not having a ticket for West Ham, or Spurs, or wherever, might be wondering what they were whining about should they find themselves without a club completely in May. I wouldn't mind betting that trying to keep the Albion afloat at the moment is taking up far more of Dick Knight and the board's time than they ever thought possible, and for that I salute them.

Compared with this, the odd defeat at places like Luton and Brentford seems a little trivial.

Come on Prescott, FFS, get your finger out.
