    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    I’ve gone for £20 at those odds. I don’t have any particular inclination that Harris will win, but 2.5 in a two-horse race where all available metrics suggest it could go either way definitely favours the punter.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    It wasn’t sudden. Harris went to about 1.8 post debate, but then gradually drifted out to 2.5 over the subsequent 4-5 weeks. She has shortened a little bit in the last 24 hours to 2.25, presumably after that Iowa poll.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Betting has shifted a little, but she’s still odds against in a 2-horse race.

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    There’s a high turnover in age-group football, with better players shifting up levels, or even into the senior squad, as required. As a result the strength of teams can vary. Palace were probably playing Spurs U14s.

    [Albion] Alexis Mac Allister - *** New Contract Until 2025 ***

    I want to see him back at RB. I think that spell he had there was the best we’ve ever had, both in defence and attack. As for Mac A, he’s just like any other opposition player to me.

    [Misc] Remembering dreams / lucid dreams

    I have experienced going to places that I’m certain I have dreamt about. That’s always a weird feeling. Also dreamt about people then woke up next day realising that I really fancy them. That’s a classic though, right??

    [Albion] Ten games in - our new players

    I’m most impressed and surprised about Georginio. I did not expect him to have so many attributes. Pedro would’ve been a great impact sub, but we’ve not missed him that much.

    [Albion] Bart Verbruggen SINGS a 5-year deal

    Kuipers was probably one of the best shot stoppers we’ve had; he was however not what you’d call solid on crosses. I don’t think Stocldale turned into a dickhead. The club just decided that we needed an upgrade, and Birmingham offered him far more money than we were offering to be back-up to...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    That poll has certainly shifted the betting market. Not quite to the same extent as the debate, and Trump is still odds-on, but it’s more than just market noise.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Jon Ralston, a well-respected Nevada iournalist, does not seem to be saying the same thing. In terms of early voting by voters with registered affiliation, the Reps are ahead. Obviously registered Reps can vote for Harris.

    [Drinking] Children in pubs

    Parents that get pissed whilst responsible for young kids is something that I hate to see. And that’s from someone that loves getting hammered and acting irresponsibly.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Reading the full tweet, it just says that 58% of early voting >65s are registered dems. It’s well established that registered dems are more likely to vote early, so it seems a fairly insignificant stat in terms of vote indication. It’s just spin.

    [Albion] Enciso is such a ray of sunshine.... not

    I reckon he's the sort of player whose free-kicks will mostly end up in Row Z, something like 1 in 20 will be spectacular goals.

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    Maybe his best position is as wing back when playing 3 centre-backs? That was the case at beginning of 20-21 when he was at his best, wasn’t it? I don’t understand why Hinshelwood hasn’t been played at RB this season. I thought he was our best option there last season before he got injured.

    [Humour] Comedy's that have aged well and those that haven't

    Dad’s Army - a lot of the lines are still very funny, obviously including the classic ‘don’t tell him Pike’.

    [Albion] Enciso is such a ray of sunshine.... not

    Yes, a narrative seems to have built up that he went against Tony Bloom's wishes. Fact is that Bloom agreed to his request to play for Paraguay rather than travel to Japan. The only player TB probably cared about going to Japan was Mitoma. Bloody hell, we even had Sima making up the numbers -...

    [Albion] Enciso is such a ray of sunshine.... not

    Is that strictly true? He'd played a fair bit from the bench in our last dozen games in 23-24, which would've been part of trying to play himself back into form, so he was definitely physically fit albeit that 6 months out will have affected his technical sharpness. The Olympics meant he...

    [Albion] Enciso is such a ray of sunshine.... not

    What a load of bollocks. He lost his mojo when he had a training injury mid August 2023 and was out until late February 2024.

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

    Lamptey's and Moder's contracts end after this season. Can't see them being renewed. Both players have been unlucky with injuries over the last 3 years.

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

    He's not quite Pascal Gross, but I've seen him play enough times over the years to know that his pace is definitely not a significant aspect of his game. I'm sure we have several players that are faster.
