    [Albion] Who is your early season SCAPEGOAT?

    I reckon everything's Danny Welbeck's fault. He's intimidating everyone else by being so good.

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    Isn't he available on a free in the summer? I suspect he'll be a really successful and popular winger at a newly promoted side next season, and I hope he does well (except against us). I think the people saying we've outgrown him are right, but we've just about had our money's worth out of him...

    [Technology] Printer Advice - Thermal vs Ink ?.

    I'm not sure if they have a model that does what you want, but I wouldn't buy a printer from any brand other than Brother nowadays. Everyone else is obsessed with restricting your ability to use aftermarket consumables and forcing you to buy new ink cartridges even though you're only running low...

    [Albion] Danny Welbeck.

    I would love it so much if he goes the whole season with this goalscoring rate

    [Albion] Minamino to Brighton? Surely not.

    This looks like the only feasible justification for me. He doesn't fit our profile at all, how often do we sign 29-year-olds from clubs like Monaco? But if the club's decided our commercial appeal in Japan is important, then this is what might be happening. Agree that on balance it's probably...

    [Palace] #cpfc

    Has Mourinho just announced his interest in taking over at Palace? Sounds like he might have done :devilish: Quote from here: https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/paul-scholes-jose-mourinho-referee-33967699

    [Football] Possible Bloom investment in Hearts

    Interesting read, but I'm fewming and screaming and crying about this error

    [Albion] Danny Welbeck.

    You're not wrong, but there's a bit more to it. The word "soccer" tended to be used in England by the upper classes, to distinguish it from their preferred form of football, the one they colloquially called "rugger" (i.e. rugby). So the working classes who made up English football crowds in the...

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

    I mean... Juninho Paulista fell so in love with Middlesbrough that he signed for them three times. Not a comment on the quality of cities of Leicester or Middlesbrough, just noting that people sometimes fall in love with places you might not expect them to.

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

    I feel a bit awkward about making fun of fans that fall in love with our outgoing loanees after the whole Levi Colwill thing. But yes, there are definitely shades of Ben White/Leeds coming from some people on the Leicester forum right now. Most seem pretty circumspect though, I was surprised to...

    [Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

    Haven't bothered to fact-check this, but I chuckled at someone's claim on Xitter that San Marino have won more games than Crystal Palace this season.

    [Albion] I've got a horrible feeling...

    A 1-1 with three red cards for each team would do nicely, thanks

    [Albion] Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall **Singed for Chelsea 02/07/2024**

    The thing is, this is as good as it gets for KDH's Chelsea career. If he's not getting minutes under Maresca, he's not likely to get any from whoever next year's Chelsea manager turns out to be.

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

    He seems to elevate Welbeck to even greater heights. My two favourite goals so far this season were each the result of Rutter cooking something up that Welbeck got to feast on.

    [Albion] Shithousery

    I reckon Ferdi would probably do well. Not really sure why, I just get a sense he’d enjoy it.

    [Football] Possible Bloom investment in Hearts

    The writer of that piece is absolutely stealing a living. His writing is atrocious and he has nothing interesting or insightful to say.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    I suspect you might be misunderstanding how people with dual nationalities tend to reconcile their two identities. I'm also English, but I'm not only English because I have another nationality. Not really the point of this thread and I don't want to derail it, but I get annoyed when people...

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Interesting that nobody really complained about Carsley getting the gig in the short-term (or managing our U21s), even though he played for Ireland. As far as the football world is concerned, he's a foreigner too. Is that because he was a temporary appointment? Or because an Irishman isn't...
