    [Other Sport] Kick arse !

    If he was managed by his emotions rather than the other way round, I suspect he'd have used his interviews to give it some to the people who wanted his head on a stick a couple of months ago. Sometimes when he listens to questions he looks like he's trying to decipher another language, which is...

    [Albion] Florin Andone just tweeted training pics of himself

    Enforced squad rotation after the turf war incident. If we ever need more wing-back/midfield options, Bernardo returns and Andone gets loaned to a corner of Europe. Continues for years, Potter repeatedly denying there is an issue. Outed in a 15,000-word Athletic feature two years after one of...

    [Football] Newcastle - up the creek?

    After Everton away this weekend, Fulham have got Burnley, Sheff Yoo and P*l*ce, then Liverpool and Man City. If they can reduce the gap, they've got Toon on the last day. I reckon the gulf in quality is too big for any of them to escape but t'Blades have got a kind-looking last couple of months...

    [Humour] Is any subject taboo when it comes to jokes?

    Of course not. Life is tragedy, death is coming, part of the job of comedy is to transgress taboos etc etc. The trouble with Gervais is that he's hardly ever funny, picks the easiest, least original possible targets while feigning to be an edgelord (trans and the disabled and so on and so on)...

    [Other Sport] Home gyms

    Lucky! Looks good. Exigo stuff is great. Would definitely go down eBay route, lots of good kit out there. Cables are cheap, as are sets of good quality iron kettlebells.

    [Albion] Team for Leicester (fa cup)

    On a vaguely predictive note, Ulloa reckons were loose tomorrow. "Brighton try to change like Leicester, but more slowly. They have similar philosophies. They need more time than Leicester. But both clubs are so good. Leicester will win the game 1-0. I remember coming to Brighton because I was...

    [Albion] Round 23 - Potter vs Dyche

    Burnley have not beaten us in four games under Potter (three draws) and have never gone ahead. We did not beat them in six attempts under Hoo (four draws). The closest we came was the only match in which we were ahead for more than three minutes, when they scored that last-minute equaliser at...

    [Albion] Burnley vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Dunky's scored more Premier League goals than Salah since Christmas.

    [News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

    Even more good news: there is no "media narrative". Most journalists and editors in the same organisations have wildly varying approaches to interpreting the figures.

    [Albion] Potter's a top coach isn't he?

    He is clearly a brilliant coach. You could probably find 50 people who have worked with and against him who have said so. As much as Daddy Hoo deserves a statue, he would never have brought us back for a point from (to name two) being 2-0 down at Wet Sham and 3-1 down against Wolves the other...

    [Albion] Are we still worrying about WBA, Sheff Utd and Fulham's results?

    Were loose on Satdi and people will be banging on about the certainty of relegation, the need for GP to be extradited to Guantanamo etc etc

    [Albion] Potter in or out?

    Didn't want him out but my inability to see our fortunes improving after sheff yoo reiterates what a dunce I am. Given our budget, always felt the board's criteria must be how long we've spent in the relegation zone across a season.

    [Football] Sean Dyche - not your average presser

    Enjoy how he still manages to personify Burnley by being pass-agg confrontational. He'd slap you a bit too hard on the shoulder and ask you "are you winning, skipper?" every morning at work while eyeballing you

    [Albion] Goodbye and Thank you to Glenn Murray

    Three that stick in the noggin: 1) Orient away when he looked so unhappy and disinterested throughout the game that it was hard not to feel that he was having a 90-minute existential crisis 2) That period when he was at Palace but still lived in Brighton and used to pass my office window and...

    [Albion] The Nick Szczepanik Media Review

    pure class :bowdown:

    [Albion] So do we rotate players for the Liverpool game?

    My concern now is that Potter will get unnecessarily cocky and start playing selection roulette again because we're under less pressure. Bit like when you have the occasional non-shit day in life and that temporary optimism/confidence results in disaster. Hopefully he's learned and we'll stick...

    Glenn Murray

    He would have. Wasn't exactly a 15-yard sprint

    Glenn Murray

    Would have stuck that Maupay chance away with a sack of bricks on his back. Can't really argue that we've loaned him out because he's no better than what we've got
