    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    Their loss to Liverpool could just as easily been by a greater margin. The draws against Chelsea and Man U were points gained rather than 2 points dropped as well. They could be in trouble, guys. Let’s enjoy it rather than be negative. It’s not as if they’ve got a talismanic player like Zaha...

    [Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**

    Dribbling is a term that really needs to be brought back into modern football parlance. I remember in the 80s that we used to dribble round cones etc. These days players are more likely to be described as running with the ball.

    [Albion] Most mad Albion player

    Soft as shite in comparison to some of the alternatives mentioned on here. When used as a sub, Andone used to make a point of fouling an opposition centre back within a minute or two of coming on the pitch.

    [Albion] Brajan Gruda **SINGED 14 Aug 2024**

    I remember how bad Mwepu looked on his debut when he got 20 mins against Watford when we were cruising at 2-0, so I'm certainly not reading anything into Gruda's cameo in a much tighter match situation.

    [Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

    I still think Hinshelwood is a far better right back than he is CM.

    [Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

    Just been re-watching the first half and thought he actually looked pretty good apart from when he had the ball nicked off him for their first.

    [Albion] Best Singing the Blues weekend ever?

    I thought the 3-1 was the best. Not a particularly spectacular scorline, but achieving it when playing for over an hour with 10 men is a real piss take.

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    Something that table highlights is that they haven’t had a particularly tough start to the season, which can sometimes result in a false position in the table. Out of their opening 7 games, 5 have been against bottom-half teams.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

    I may be wrong and it’s hearsay, but weren’t all of RDZ’s chosen signings a bit crap?

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

    Walking, not crutches and without any discerable pain or limp?

    [Albion] North Stand Expansion + Away fans to be moved

    As illustrated in the CAD drawing superimposed on post 110. It certaionly does seem the most obvious way to add a few rows, so I would assume there are good structural or practical reasons why it's not being done this way.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

    Click on the pic for the full list, but to save the trouble there's no surprising ommisions and Gruda makes the bench.

    [Albion] North Stand Expansion + Away fans to be moved

    Looks like they intend to move the screen across towards the east by about 15 metres as well from those plans, as it's current position is above the 4th entrance alon from the right. 420 may not sound a lot, but it's an extra 15% of the current stand capacuty and if nothing else should...

    [Albion] North Stand Expansion + Away fans to be moved

    It must be about 125 seats across the width of the N&S stand, so that’s 6 rows. Is that feasible? Must be the absolute limit of space if it is, and your right, there’s nowhere near that number above the South.

    [Misc] Bucket lists

    Same. Went to Cuba about 14 years ago have since travelled to the US loads of times on four separate ESTAs, and at at least half of those would've been on the same passport.

    [Finance] Premium Bonds - prize pool increased again - you ever have any luck?

    For the first month in a while, my returns have been something approaching the 4.4% average. I guess it's the potential for winning biggly that I have to account for, but overall I feel that I've got far better value from the low-coupon gilts I bought about 9 months ago as far as tax-efficient...

    [Albion] Carlos Baleba's stunning start to the season

    I was going to say that. Best save I've seen him make was in Euros against Turkey. That was incredible reaction and at such an important time of a huge game.

    [Other Sport] Question for NSC golders

    It's not legally required. Although it's possible certain courses in close proximity to houses etc. may require it to play them, but it's not something I've heard of - not that I get to play much gold these days! As with all non-mandatory insurance, you're statistically better off saving the...

    [Albion] Hürzeler’s (Brighton) Tactics

    If we're assuming that FIFA ratings are accurate, then I think that Minteh is our paciest player in the senior squad with a rating of 94 and Ferdi next with 88. However, Baleba is only 76, so I'm not sure how accurate this metric is.

    [Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

    Sarmiento's attitude has been great. Unfortunately, this alone doesn't make him a PL level footballer, as backed up by him mainly being used from the bench in the Championship by both West Brom and Ipswich last season and Burnley this season - although early days for the latter. Enciso...
