I didn’t read it as an attack on us. If anything, the opposite. He’s having a go at people who downplay the progress made by Brighton. He’s saying that we've invested cautiously but wisely over the last several years while his own club wasted years under Ashley by not investing in the...
Yeah I was just thinking that. A mansion in Surrey or Hants/Sussex would be the thing rather than crawling through the London traffic in your Ferrari twice a day.
I saw Howe interviewed just a day or so ago when he said he wasn’t ever approached. Tuchel apparently signed his deal 10 days ago and presumably talks will have been going on for weeks. Seems to me that the FA have had Tuchel lined up as their man for a long time now so it suggests that no other...
For me, it’s not a matter of whether Eriksson, Capello, or Tuchel are/were better coaches than the available English ones. They almost certainly are/were. And it certainly doesn’t matter that Tuchel is German. I love Germany, and like nearly all Germans I meet.
My position is that, certainly...
I didn’t want too much analysis TBH. We defended well but let’s face, we could easily have lost that game. We rode our luck. So I was happy to see the highlights but not too detailed an examination of how we did it!
Fantastic result for us but for a scrappy 0-1 isn’t going to be above Tottenhams’s 4-1, Leicester’s 3-2 fightback, Arsenal’s defeat, ManU win etc in the eyes of a non-Albion TV audience!
It’s incredibly misleading, as has been pointed out. 4% is the percentage of people who, for whatever reason, haven’t made plans to avoid paying it. But you’ll hear the Chancellor constantly quote this figure to pretend that IHT is a concern for only a tiny minority.
The figures quoted for the relatively small numbers of people hit by IHT are misleading. This number doesn’t represent the number of 'rich people', it represents the number of people who don’t get their act together in time to deal with IHT, or who die unexpectedly early. A much larger number...
It’s a cartoonish, painting-by-numbers whodunnit. All a bit My First Crypytic Crossword. But you have to go with it, if you can. Once you start saying things like "Hold on, no police officer would ever do that", you’re in danger of getting derailed from the spirit of it. If you can let it wash...
I’ve never bothered with milk powder. It’s mentioned in my old Panasonic recipe book but I’ve not used it, nor ‘vitamin C powder’ which is also listed in all the recipes. I use just flour, water and yeast, and sometimes a dash of honey and/or olive oil. And sometimes random seeds, depending on...
From what I can see, the general view is that Brighton fans support the campaign in general but are nervous that displaying the banner would appear (wrongly) to be a criticism of Albion and Bloom. So that’s the hurdle to overcome — how can we make this distinction clear? It’s difficult with one...
I don’t think the score has any relevance. The fact that some fans paid / were able to pay is only half the story. The fact remains that many loyal fans will have had to miss their biggest game in decades, while other fans who felt they couldn’t miss it, will have paid up and created financial...
