Long chat about Dick’s Bar too. PB not happy with size or location but gave his word it would stay - I pushed! That question linked to location/accessibility/opening times (or not) of museum, which really needs to be more accessible - our history is important. All for tonight, gig at the...

The answer was that unlike other clubs the Albion season ticket is discounted against the individual entry price per match and that there is no reason the discounts should extend to casual attendees hence the levy. If it is indeed true that Albion season tickets have a greater discount or are...

Absolutely my feelings. Is obscene money as a nonentity on the bench at a 'big club' really better than fantastic money as a hero at the Albion? I think we might find one or two why will stay. As you say, it's the agents who are the problem - but (some) players are capable of independent...

This is a piece for the newspaper I write for, published last weekend. Apologies for repetition of the bit I had already posted here, I wanted to put it up in its entirety for context. It has insights into our strategy I think you'll find interesting. Cheers, Attila/John I had a serious...

I'm afraid I know what happened, it was entirely within the laws of business, but not respectful or right IMO. Confidential, can say nbo more. :(

The way the originators were treated...the corporate takeover.... utter disgrace. Simple lesson: Beer, music - DIY, keep it small, run it yourself, have fun. Football, it gets more complicated :)

Bromsgrove Sporting v Nuneaton Borough Saturday in between gigs in Stourbridge and Malvern.

I never cease to marvel at the way cricket shoots itself in the foot over the weather. Big crowds in the sunshine with nothing to watch because of a 'wet outfield'. 'Bad light' stopping games when there are floodlights available. But this surely takes the biscuit. A Cup Final which might not...

I think Potter may already be in trouble. I have heard that Boehly is talking about wanting to sign Cristiano Ronaldo, about wanting 'celebrity' players, and that is the absolute opposite of Potter's team ethic. If the 'owner' is serious about this there is a direct conflict already. Chelsea's...

I would rather eat a pubic hair pizza while drinking Carling and listening to Coldplay live in Selhurst Park than watch that :)

The chorus of 'Turning Japanese' by the Vapors occurs as a chant for him, or it did to me anyway as he ran Chelsea ragged! (Apologies to young people, although it's probably been in an advert by now)

Played there loads, not much to report really, but Husum, a seaside town not far away is absolutely beautiful and well worth a visit.

Matt Hancock and the Kangaroo Testicles. That is a great name for a band.

I neither listen to talk radio nor read the kind of mind-rotting tabloids which exist purely to give people something slightly more interesting to do than picking their nose, but I’m informed they are fed up with us for booing Potter. They can do one. Cap-doffers to the ‘Big Six’, complacent in...

I share the sentiment, as long as he doesn't try and take Trossard and Caicedo in January, in which case he can do one again. I absolutely glory in the result. But the whole Potter/Chelsea episode is purely a symptom of the disease, which will reach the most vomit-inducing apex in Qatar in a few...

The bright new board seems to have persuaded me to get involved in 'political' threads rather than Albion ones, just once. I come here to write about the Albion. If you want the other stuff it's on my Facebook page, every day. That's the only plug for it I'll do on here and this is the only...

I loathe Morrissey - always have done - just loathe him a bit more now. The Spectator is a spineless, semiliterate piece of toilet paper for thick right wing upper class twits, a Sun for Rees Moggs and Softy Walters. I met former editor Matthew d'Ancona once around the time of the collapse of...

More fired up than I was 40 years ago. Done by far my best 2 albums in my 60s. Cycle to Falmer and back from Southwick every home game. Speak for yourself you old git. :)

That's how it is for me now. Spot on. The alternative was to walk away and I am never doing that.
