    [Albion] Player ratings v Fulham

    I was at the game, so keen to get a TV viewers perspective too.. He seemed to let a lot go, relatively speaking. Not sure I felt we were any harder done by than Fulham, but Fulham were very quick to get onto him as players, annd eventually Dunk did so too - I guess letting more go is more in...

    [Albion] Player ratings v Fulham

    I don't disagree with the majority of sentiments, but I do want to temper Dunk was "bullied" by Mitrovic. Dunk and Webster were undoubtedly unsettled by him, but that was always going to be the case - physically he is very difficult, almost impossible to play against and Dunk (and Duffy) has...

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

    Mitrovic one of the very few players who I think I have seen "bully" Dunk (and Duffy) so will be interesting. Hoping (*and expecting) Veltman starts. Fulham will be right up for it so we will have to match them and see if we can weather early storm. Our confidence will be high of course and to...

    [Albion] Is it right to sell Neal Maupay?

    It makes sense for all the business reasons that others have quoted. He has however been an important part of our relative success and I have loved watching him. 2 great finishes at Selhurst, huge goals last season to get us important draws, and assists and sh*thousery all the way. For me, the...

    [Help] Medical advice - cardiology

    The NHS agenda is focused on personalisation and choice, so seeking a second opinion is very much part of that, and whilst my understanding is that it's not a "legal right" it is unusual for that second opinion to be refused. I would certainly recommend a good dialogue with the treating...

    [Football] ** West Ham v BHA ** - Premier League - Score Predictor - Now in it's 12th SEASON !!

    Never quite sure which way to display the score.. I've gone 2-0 to West Ham (or should that be 0-2?) I tend to be pessimistic and hope to be proved wrong (I find being an Albion fan easier that way!!)! The "Albion Curse" for West Ham has to end one day - they cannot allow another defeat at home...

    [Albion] Worst player, in context, to debase the stripes

    Richard Tiltman (does he fit the games played criteria?).. I was only a teenager at the time, but I could almost feel sorry for him as he just seemed so out of his depth!!

    [Football] Ref blaming

    Trying to distinguish between different events is one challenge. I can accept that there will always be mistakes.. If I take yesterday's game, I can be more objective. The tackle on Havertz : no issue for me at all. Ref believes he legitimately got a touch on the ball, made the decision and...

    [Albion] Mac Allister as a ball winner

    He showed more physicality last season I think and I love the way that he is on the move looking for the 2nd ball following our centre-halves battling for the 1st one.. Really has developed to the PL..

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    Ha, thanks loz! I remember at the time being outraged at the penalty awards against us, but when I watch these replays, I am always gob-smacked that the only "dodgy" penalty really was the one given to us!! @<u><a href="https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/member.php?u=23343"...

    [Albion] Pascal Groß the raumdeuter - officially leaves for Dortmund :(

    Given this still is a Pascal focused thread, what an intelligent player he is. His ability to make things happen, his movement, his timing, his choice of pass are a joy. Take the 1st goal, his improvised pass to help Caicedo break was instinctive. His flaw, and the one that he can't actually do...

    [Albion] Simple straw poll: New Home Shirt - YAY/NAY ?

    To be fair, that's a reasonable approach and whilst I currently "hate it" the fact that it comes with white shorts and socks will soften my initial reaction! A couple of goals to the good in the 1st home game and I may of course "Love it"!!

    [Albion] Your top 3 worst home shirts.

    That's the one.. my personal least favourite !

    [Albion] Your top 3 worst home shirts.

    Cant paste pictures, but there was Sandtex one which was predominantly blue, with a sort of squiggle effect, blue shorts, blue socks.. Early 90s.. truly the worst of all time.. but new one coming close for me.

    [Albion] Marc Cucurella *Signed For Chelsea 05/08/2022*

    This is the nub of it. There may be others of course but Man City fans must realise that they will get ripped off, because they have been complicit and implemented to their benefit the business model that makes them so cock-sure they will get their player becuase in the end they often do. If...

    [Albion] Who was your first favourite player?

    Fred Binney for me too.. it was influenced by the fact that my Uncle's family who hailed from Plymouth knew him and his family! That and the fact that he scored goals was a heady combination for a nipper like me at the time! I was resistant to the charms of Wardy for a little while...

    [Albion] How fickle are YOU? Your Albion mojo today

    This is part of our "change Curve"!!! It feels odd, grates against the emotional heartstrings, but is the clearest sign that our model is working. This is exactly what is meant to happen.. but it's hard. I thought Cucurella was the one of the names being touted that we maybe couldn't afford to...
