    [Misc] Paper rounds

    Sunday was a job in its own right, only for the very brave. Often regarded as the SAS of paperboys.

    [Misc] Paper rounds

    Great thread. My first gig was around 9. They’d employee you underage, but it was a pound a day (this was mid 90’s) and he’d call your house phone if you were any later than 6am. 66 monster papers up a hill. It would take 3 trips on a Sat. I remember finding out princess Diana had died in...

    [Misc] Paper rounds

    Wow! That lad must have been some paperboy. I think I got socks of an old dear as my Christmas tip. Was it the bright orange Apollo bike? I had one and only ever remember seeing it in that colour.

    Thanks @Badger Maybe I'm being harsh. I just didn't think it was a patch on London or NYC in terms of the atmosphere and felt both Boston and Chicago also had better crowds. I imagine if I was a more serious runner it would rank higher as it's so flat and fast. It was interesting to see how...

    A couple of table updates for me if possible. Marathon: 03:11:14 Half Marathon: 1:29:59 (just sneaked a sub 1.30) My new marathon PB was in Berlin on Sunday and my 5th star. I've just signed up to Tokyo in March and then I'll hopefully be done with the majors. It's been 8 years in the making...

    [Albion] The "Joe Marler is a Seagull" thread

    Is Marcus Smith one of the toffs that moved over to the North Stand from 1901 with his mates but won’t join in with the songs? Someone was complaining about it on another thread and it sounds like he fits the bill.

    [Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

    This is like when I take over Barcelona on football manager and loan players back to Brighton. An absolute wonderkid!

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    + some tasty add ons / sell on clauses. We definitely didn’t pay 30m straight up. Todd would do 25m in cash and the other 75m over 7 years. They should get me involved in the negotiations with Smith-Rowe. I’d open things up with a premium subscription to the hub, then hit him with those...

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    How’s it bad negotiation? I just saved us 5m?

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    I've heard a lot of rumors like that. Very odd, man! I'd rather Alex Scott for 20m. Leave Smith-Rowe back in Croydon to browse "grannies looking for action in your local area"

    [Albion] I'm sick of it

    Calm down chap. Archibald, Tarquin, and the other boys were in 1901 until last season. We've got all the chants on our phones and have been working on our own song, which is to the tune of swing low, sweet Jan Paul van Hecke. Just like you'd hear at the ruggers. We're all Brighton boys. Every...

    [Albion] Chelsea or Liverpool?

    I went with Chelsea, purely on location. I wouldn't want to live in or close to Liverpool even on those wages.... Got me thinking though. As a professional footballer, how much do you get to enjoy the city you live in. I recently saw Cucurella out for a walk close to Imperial Wharf, and he's...

    Thanks so much. I'll look into the exchange. Some great tips on here. Excited to visit.

    [Travel] Berlin travel info

    I've come for the great @Herr Tubthumper advice. How easy is it to get FC Union Tickets? I'm heading to Berlin for the marathon, and there's a game on Saturday. Not sure if they're skeptical to changes like ours? People keep recommending I go to the KitKat club for a post-marathon massage...
