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

    Cracking Dyche interview on SSN. Apparently they were very good, the penalty shouldn’t have been overturned, the red card changed the match and they were basically really hard done by. Some days I like him. Others he talks absolute twaddle.

    On the other hand, they might just be dogshit all season. :lol:

    Same with that lot up the road’s new guy too. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

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

    It’s likely to be tough for any team at Goodson this year. Many of us remember how The Goldstone became a fortress on the run in during our final season there. The imminent loss of a much loved home just galvanised everybody involved. I’ve a fair few toffee minded friends and even the ones...

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    Steady on there. Arrived? It's the first day of a new season. For clubs our size, that means a reset each year. The first target is 40 points and 17th place. By all means have stretch targets in mind but we're only ever a dodgy appointment or injury crisis away from a dogfight at the wrong...

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    I love how some people assume parting with £40,000,000 is something you can do in minutes. Personally, I'm quite happy for them to cross the Ts and dot the lowercase Js.

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    Be fair. Not everybody works Monday to Friday, 9 to 5. I should be working right now but... :thumbsup:

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    Ahhh, all the aggro they gave us about being small time when they wanted to buy Ben White. One can only imagine how delighted they must be about this further harsh lesson in the realities of the current football food chain. :lol:

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    Is it wrong to be a bit worried that he looks alarmingly like Locadia? Is £40 million really worth it just to annoy Leeds*? *yes

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    I hope you're right. But it's a results business and ours were shocking by season's end. We make a lot of injuries but by the end of the last campaign it looked like it was more than just that, as did not appear to be a happy camp at all. We'll just have to wait and see. Hopefully we've...

    [Albion] League Cup Round 2 draw

    I remember those. Wouldn't that be grand? It would also be nice if, just for once, we took this really seriously and went balls to the wall to get a nice silver pot. I know it's not a priority in the modern game, but it's also an opportunity to blindside the bigger clubs. Once... just...

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    I must admit, this thread used to be a lot more fun when Palace were rubbish. After we humped them at our place, they really got their act together and picked our pocket in placing higher than us at the end of the season. A year or two back, we were hopeful they might be genuine relegation...

    [NSC] NSC - what it has become, and how can it be made better

    Ignore the haters. It's fine as it is and I'm sure almost all of us appreciate the effort the NSC team make to keep it on the road.

    Poor ’ickle snowflake. Whitters on relentlessly about freedom of speech and then flounces off in a sulk the second somebody else chooses to exercise it.

    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    Inclined to agree with this. I'd rather we kept him for this reason but we can't keep everybody. If it comes to our selling, I just hope we thoroughly rinse the buyer.

    [Other Sport] Paris 2024 Olympics & Paralympics ***Official Match Thread***

    Damn! I forgot they’d got the World Cup. The last time they had it, it was a stinker. Dull as ditch water and a washout of a final. But we weren’t there, of course. Just qualify and all will be forgotten.

    Yeah! Damn them, with their winning all the time. Hope Wieffer's got some of that going on.
