    [Albion] Happy Birthday BHAFC

    Do you think we could claim that someone kicked a ball somewhere in Brighton in 1724 thus making us 300 years old and actually the oldest football club in the world? #thechrystalpalaceway

    [Misc] Cold Turkey on Caffeine

    Might be a strange question but what does drinking coffee do? Why do people drink it? I don't drink it(or tea :eek:), don't like the taste. Very occasionally when I'm working outside in winter someone will buy me one, and it being rude to not drink it, I'll drink it. Beyond making me feel a...

    Yes o think/hope he'll get a few more wins. Once he's got them under his belt he'll be better prepared to take on max. Max had several years of winning races and maximizing potential race winning opportunities before he went fully toe to toe with Lewis. I feel Lando needs some of that...

    Lando will be gutted. That was his to win. Max was great, got the lead with minimal fuss and then drove the race he needed to drive. I think this is a really important season for Lando. It's the first time he's had a properly competitive car, if he wants to be a world champion he needs to...

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

    It's not the same though. He deserves the being subbed off with 10 minutes to go as the game stops and the crowd rises to its feet and sings his name and praises for several minutes while he is mobbed by team mates and he does the slow clap around all four stands before slowly walking off to...

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

    This. It's a real shame that he's not going to get the farewell he so richly deserves. It's not even like he'll get it as a returning player. This makes me sad.

    Apologies if it's been asked before but what's the difference between Chelsea selling itself it's hotels and man city paying itself inflated sponsorship?

    Yeah, let's agree to disagree.

    [Football] Euros 2024 - Matchday 7

    Yes, that's why said either failed to qualify for tournaments or stunk them out. Its arguable that 2008 was our most enjoyable tournament out of the five!

    [Football] Euros 2024 - Matchday 7

    I think last night was worse than either of the games you mention. Like you say it looked very much like a team that knew the manager was gone. We've all seen teams play like that when the manager is on his way out the door. I don't know how much there is to that interpretation but it's what...

    [Football] Euros 2024 - Matchday 7

    I disagree. There is plenty to hang on Southgate for that performance. Players misplacing passes when under no pressure isn't one of them. Players losing the ball because they let the opposition get in front of them and nick it isn't either. I don't think I'll change anyone's opinion on...

    [Football] Do England Have a DNA ??

    That's the kind of player we're missing. Someone like jorginho, or a level up a kroos or modicum or pirlo. Someone that can control and dictate the pace of the game. England rarely produce them, we generally produce all action box to box midfielders. I guess the closest we've come in the...

    [Football] Euros 2024 - Matchday 7

    After nights 'sleep' it seems to me that yesterday was a double whammy of shit: 1) The players looked like they had never met each other and had no idea what to do. This is on the manager. 2) The players were absolute dogshit. They struggled to pass accurately, they offered no options to...

    That was possibly the worst performance since Iceland in 2016. Shockingly bad. Not one player better than a 5 out of 10 and that's being generous.

    Yeah, that was really poor. Back to the bad old days.

    That's interesting. I genuinely don't remember hearing the word being used until fairly recently.

    [Football] Duels in football

    Yes, in a good moment! So are duels just 1 v1s? 50 - 50 tackles? The individual battles on the pitch i.e Centre forward against centre half, winger against full back etc? Or something else?

    [Football] Duels in football

    Fabian Schaar talking about the game against Scotland said: “There were a lots of tackles and duels, as we expected. They made it extremely difficult for us.” I've noticed duels popping up in more and more interviews and discussions about games. In much the same way as everyone talks about...
