Yes, I'm with everybody else (with the exception of the OP, who I believe must be Jacob Rees Mogg). I'm a software developer and like others I get WAY more done when I'm sitting in the quiet of my own home. I go to the office once a week, and that too is good as that gives me the chance to have...

On balance I disagree with you, but I can also see where you're coming from. He IS young, he DID show a lot of promise .... and then he got injured and ill and apparently didn't like the manager. These things happen to young players and it is extremely possible he'll get back to where he was and...

Well blow me down you're right. I've lived here for over thirty years and I'd never noticed that before. All these years I've been going one stop too far! :dunce:

Yes, another who feels the same way. If that had been Australia, or even India, I would be mightily pissed off, but Sri Lanka? Good on them. And that isn't patronising, it's recognising that Test cricket can't just be a few big nations endlessly playing each other. Plus they deserved it anyway...

I didn't know about that. Unbelievable (or perhaps sadly not) :( Whilst Cleveland will always be my team the whole Watson things has slightly soured my feelings. (I know you feel much the same way). In the old days people used to laugh at us, the Clowns, because we were crap. Fair enough...

TwoChoicesTom is absolutely right, we need a monorail like he saw in Japan. (Great pics). And while we're at it, when is Fiveways getting an underground stop? At the moment I have to get off at Hollingbury Park and walk down the hill.

Exactly. I'm pleased with the way things went. I was ecstatic when he joined us, I couldn't believe it. Brian Clough! It showed the ambition Bamber had for the club, he wanted us to stop being a run-of-the-mill 3rd division club and to aim for the stars. (This type of ambition has ruined many a...

I know, I know, I know. I kinda had a bad feeling about this anyway as pre-season had been, er, 'less than successful', but I wasn't expecting such a tonking. Could argue about the injuries in the OL, but jeez, that was dire. Your post is 100% spot on, and the situation is made worse by the...

Meh, iPhone, schmiphone. Anyone know where I get get a GOSBTS ringtone for my Nokia?

No, true, I haven't. The nearest I came to it was watching French schoolboys play. It was so laid-back when I was used to the screaming, spittle-flecked English parents who watched my son's games. Kinda assumed that was more the norm. (Wrongly obviously).

You missed out "And you all vote Green despite having big cars " Anyway ..... we forgive you for your unkind words. That's the sort of people we are. :kiss:

Ah well if she lives in Fiveways of course she loves Brighton! We are the 'shining suburb on the hill'!

Yeah that's my take on it. I was more surprised about the level of violence in the Dutch amateur game tbh. It must be really bad if they're even considering it.

I know this often comes up when people talk about 'rule changes I'd like to see', but I've never been in favour, no, not even if it meant one less thing for VAR to pass judgement on. However apparently the Dutch are thinking of trying it in their non-league. As an aside I didn't realise the...

Good analysis. I too think London Road is pretty good, a 'proper' vibrant city street. A city can't be all twee little pedestrianised walkways and expensive boutiques, although there is a place for them as well - and Brighton has them. Ditto Lewes Road up to the Gyratory, then when it gets...

True, going through all the results would do it regardless of any published tables in the media. No need to wait until you retire, you can do it between Tracker updates :) Yes, I was there! I do seem to remember there was a debate as to whether we were 5th or 6th, (although we all agreed it...

Also in the 'old days' they were never published (certainly not in the newspapers) until at least three or four games had taken place on the grounds they were useless and no real guide.

He was resigned!

I've lived here since 1990 and I can't honestly say. Some bits are better, some bits are worse, some bits have changed but are neither better or worse, and some bits have stayed the same. HTH

In advance that happens obviously. Tickets for a recent competitive Brighton and Hove Albion home first team match were much cheaper than they were for the games before and after that fixture. The reason being it was a League Cup game against unattractive opposition and in the modern era those...
