    [Albion] Possible return of fans to the Amex (incorporating the Q and A forum on 17th August)

    The point about needing to buy a phone worth more than a grand has got to go in NSC Gold, surely...?

    [Other Sport] Back to the gym?

    Been back. I've found motivating myself within sight of bed and food has its difficulties. Mine's got an app now where you can see how many people have checked through the doors in the last hour now. They've also started doing outdoor group sessions, which I'm enjoying despite fairly chronic...

    [Albion] 20/21 pre-season training

    Some of the squad were training at Eastbourne last week. bet you're glad you logged on to read that

    [Albion] Remembering Roy Chuter

    The line "I fear someone may have broken into your premises and stolen a quantity of your headed notepaper" comes into my head every time I have to reply to a nonsensical email. Used to hope it was a temporary tic but think it's just there forever now. Best opening ever, just kind of wish I...

    [Albion] Lost or stolen precious Albion merchandise or memorabilia

    Roll of negatives from the end of season dinner in 2001 or 2002. Would have been dynamite. Zamora and all the drinking club. Lost it somewhere round Brighton station the next day, probably still pissed. Hopefully it'll turn up in Snoopers Paradise in 50 years' time. Guess technically I...

    [Football] The Athletic

    To echo a couple of the above posts, I bought it and now keep forgetting to read it. And I think, in spite of his misguidedly antagonistic past on social, it's better to keep schtum if you've nowt nice to say about AN. Going from 20+ years at a tabloid to TA's model cannot be easy and I always...

    [Drinking] Alcoholic/like a beer or two too much?

    I've gone back to getting pissed pretty much every day now but I did find this a bit of a problem when I was trying to stop. End up drinking four pints of orange juice/aspartame and still feeling dodgy, just without the brief few hours of life being a bit less shit. Fair play on your...

    [Albion] Yapi signs new contract

    Played well in the 5-3 against Liverpool, which took some doing against their wingers and forward line.

    Adam El Abd

    He trains at my gym and is an outrageously handsome bloke and a gent. Between him and Knocky sometimes training in there, it was like seeing different species. He's a beast - looks fitter and stronger than any of the squad were under Slade. Hard to know whether to feel inspired or demoralised...

    [Football] Alfredo Morelos

    The idea of this alone is extremely funny. An absolute lunatic playing for a bunch of fans who would turn on him at a moment's notice. Like a nuclear Ashley Barnes. We'd have to break the no dickheads rule and there's no reason to believe in that article having any inside knowledge but it would...

    [Albion] Those Deserving Of Humble Pie . . .

    Put a fiver on us to go down at some point earlier this year. Football would be very boring without gloating and we were dire before the restart. In 13 matches from December 21 to June, the only teams we took the lead against were Bournemouth at home and Villa at home (when we let it slip late...

    [Albion] New Kits 2020/21

    [News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

    Trying not to be snarky but this made me chuckle today. It's such a tenuous news piece that no-one at any point of the scale (scientists, serious news outlets, Facebook types and conspiracy theorists) could be arsed with it.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United *** Official Match Thread ***

    Would have been a classic end of season game where the action was secondary to everyone getting hammered in the sun, had fans been allowed in. We now haven't won in the final two games of the season since beating Yeovil at Withdean in May 2010.

    [Football] Watford sack Pearson

    Worried about Pearson on Friday. He had that boiling kettle look about him, reminiscent of Martin Allen when someone would call him Mad Dog in a post-match interview, shortly before he'd go and drop his trousers in an altercation with a bouncer in a city nightclub and that sort of thing, or...

    [Football] National League Play off Semi Final

    Blimey. 25th looks like a good day for some proper football. Barnet have got Darren Currie and should be a league team. Notts County are obviously much more interesting than a lot of clubs in the league. Harrogate would be a cool place to have as a more likely cup tie than if they weren't in...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay appreciation thread

    We needed a bit more nastiness in the side. Several of our lot (Webster springs to mind) look like pushovers too often. Murray was the only one with any consistent cunning/shithousery. Would bet on Maupay having a couple of Andone moments next season but I miss that element of incendiary...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay appreciation thread

    Sort of thought he looked like the sort of bloke who would convince you to buy him a drink and then pinch your missus, but then he said something, audibly but off the mic, like "thank you very much, have an enjoyable evening" after his interview. That dun't happen very often. Also outlandishly...
