    [Albion] Simon Rusk to Cambridge Utd.

    Everyone's a winner! Assuming Rusk wants to be in the front line, of course - he's 38 now having been our u23s manager for 5 years. Maybe it is time for a change and I'm sure everyone would wish him well and look forward to sending our players out on loan to Cambridge next season. Bruno...

    [Film] Film 2020

    I absolutely loved One Upon a Time in Hollywood - with the exception of the needless scene on George's farm and the old fella is cooped up in bed. There really isn't any need for that at all and you could easily cut it and nobody would care or even notice. I found it a refreshing change on the...

    Rusk to Cambridge, Bruno to u23s manager?

    [Albion] West Ham thoughts

    If that were true, West Ham would already be relegated. Antonio is by far and away the worst/least frequently productive player on that list and has missed large chunks of the season through injury. He is a menace on his day but he's as likely to be invisible as a handful.

    [Albion] Ben White Signs new deal

    It is a funny one, not being able to use both feet. I've always been as comfortably with my right as my left, although I would say I'm naturally left footed. The advantages are obvious, I'm far harder to play against because I can use both feet but at the same time I've never really developed...

    [Albion] Ben White Signs new deal

    I think Webster is going to develop into a good Premier League centre back, but he's currently behind Shane Duffy in terms of his defensive ability and I wouldn't have the Irish Colossus out of the team in favour of Webster. I do think that Webster needs to play games in order to adjust and...

    [Albion] Locadia Today

    And I disagree with that - it's very difficult for any player coming in from a different country and not having the opportunity to play in the team to get up to pace. Spanish Dave would never have become anything under Hughton, he wouldn't have had the chance to settle into the team and he...

    [Albion] Locadia Today

    He never really settled into the side, even when he had a few games and scored a couple of goals, he never looked up to the standard. He's another victim of being overshadowed by a better player, Glenn Murray wasn't ready to stand aside and let him into the team. At least, in this case, the...

    [Albion] Team for Watford

    There are two things which make me think that it won't be the team though - every player in their preferred and natural positions, and I picked it. Other than those two things, I think there's a chance this will be the team!

    Definitely one to consider! They did that list prior to Seaford's inception, that would be in the top 20 as well for sure. Ahead of Hove Promenade for me, for sure. I'm looking forward to getting back to Seaford and giving it a good whack.

    [Albion] Glenn Murray contract extension [was: GM signs]

    Why? I think his position should be under threat from next season when we sign at worst a more competent second choice.

    Absolutely! https://www.nice-work.org.uk/races/Bedgebury-10M/2020 I have given the bike a nice rest this morning, and taken a stroll into work. Bizarrely, I was able to get here before 9am for the first time all year. :lolol: A nice 1 hour walk at casual pace in the bag, I'll have a nice 7...

    Rolled into 4th in 1:05:02, very pleased with that. Simgull big nuts knocky1 all feature in the photos on the Facebook page, but I couldn't find any of penny's harmonica on there. He was definitely there though. :thumbsup: I think that without the muddy section, I feel like I could have run...

    [Football] Liam Bridcutt

    He was flawless for us, even banging in a couple of crucial winners in 4-3 wins in the League 1 ROMPING season. He was a cut above, a clear example of a player being used to his strengths and building a team around the sum of its parts. He hasn't been as effective anywhere else, but that team we...

    155.5 miles in the tank for me running, 191 miles on the bike. :clap2: Best start to a year by a distance with 2 5k PBs in a row, although I dropped back into the 18s today at Hove Park, finishing 3rd in 18:10 (pending official confirmation). I wanted to be at the front and see how long I could...

    [Albion] Serhou Guirassy (Amiens striker) - Bid made

    Robert Lewandowski would have signed for Blackburn Rovers had the Icelandic volcano not erupted. It doesn't matter how often I hear that, it amazes me every single time because, well, it's Lewandowski signing for Blackburn under Sam Allardyce!
