OK I offer you an alternative scenario: the same rail fare from Bristol, same costs for beer/food, etc. but you can pay £25 to see Albion play Stevenage, Morecombe or Accrington at Withdean in League 2 with no roof over your head. Would that be more acceptable to you?

Blimey the Blair years feel like the good old days compared to the shambles currently unfolding...

Don't be daft and it's impossible to talk about "London" as one generic area; the sanitised streets of Fulham and Mayfair are a different kettle of fish to Peckham or Bermondsey (but even Peckham is gentrifying these days). Of course there are areas of London that are dull and depressing; the...

The stadium itself is essential to the match experience; you feel like you are somewhere significant when at Anfield or Old Trafford, in contrast to feeling disappointed by the chaotic jumble of structures and dilapidation at Selhurst Park. A couple of hundred black dressed fools with a drum...

Yeah you're right, I think it's all about: 1. number of cretins jumping about in black hoodies to some bloke banging a bongo 2. number of pillars blocking your view 3. location in a charmless sprawling backwater 4. architectural incoherence

When did Donald Trump join NSC?

As an average Guardian reader I say great effort Roy, incredible that you stood your ground despite seeing the massive blades they were carrying. Shame there weren't more people about with the same bottle to take them on.

There seems to be a lot of misconception about faith schools; personally I'm agnostic but my kids went to Cardinal Newman Catholic school, Hove. Quite a large proportion of the other kids weren't Catholic and their integrated happy classes included muslims, coptics, hindus and CofE, and...

Yeah I saw this skinhead walking through the North Laine yesterday...big fat beer belly, facial tattoos, big pair of DMs, giving everyone the evils. And you should have see the bloke she was with.

I share your misgivings about Corbyn, but if the "reasonable person" vote in Hove is split then there is a high risk that the Tory candidate will get in, despite her being from a loony Christian church and refusing to say if she voted Leave. Peter Kyle is a very good MP and no friend of...

I only have their best interests at heart and so have voted Moyes...(hahahahahahahaha!)

Well this is the problem isn't it; I've spent a year in Aus and a year in Canada and the two common issues that they have are: 1) terrible climates...either freezing to death or being boiled alive, and 2) cultural deserts...there are limits to how much joy scenery can bring to your life.

Blimey there's loads of them...and no one has mentioned Richie Towell yet! In answer to your other question; I once met a bloke in Wexford who had Albion as his second team and came over once a year to see them (his other team was Leeds!), but there are a lot of second generation Irish like...

Hahahahaha!!! Well said; I'll join in singing "you burn't your own town" as loud as I can when we play them, and laugh out loud at their every misfortune, but I'm not stupid enough to want to punch someone for wearing a red and blue bobble hat. I give Prince Charming a lot of credit for...

You should be more concerned by your inability to use punctuation...

If you are in the second row of the ESU you have to do ticker-tape: print 10 sheets of A4 blue on one side then cut each sheet into 8 equal squares. Hold like a deck of cards and throw upwards as the team comes-out. Each square, blue on one side and white on the other, will flash as they come...

"If we keep controlling fans on a leash"? Do you mean running a club in line with current stadium regulations and laws? I don't think you will find that BHAFC or any other club has the option to operate according to 1980s standards because of somewhat significant issues such as Heysel and...

Two blue and white inflatable beach balls on their way (on their way)

Yes that one, a Wednesday fan told me it was blistering at the Amex in the play-offs. Throw in some "Brighton...clap clap clap", the occasional "Seagulls" and "coz we all follow Brighton n' Hove Albion". Stick to the classics and you can't go wrong.
