    [Misc] Paper rounds

    I did a morning round six days a week in the early/mid 80s, not Sunday. Part of it was in a set of flats, so I was terrible for sitting on the stairs reading the papers rather than delivering them. The older residents of the flats used to say "Here's two shillings as a tip" and hand me 10p at...

    [Albion] North stand embarrassing!

    The north tend to be more vocal and sometimes don't engage their brains before vocalising. Whenever I'm there (and I was there today) there are always people saying "Here we go, they're going to score" every time we lose the ball in midfield. That pessimism isn't vocalised in the other stands...

    [Albion] AEK Post Game Leaving

    Bigger queues than normal at Lewes station on the way in, with a train cancelled but then an extra one laid on, so that was good. We left just past 92 minutes, ran from the west upper to the station and got straight on a Lewes train that left within 30 seconds. Considering what the rain was...

    [Albion] Seven games in 23 days - how many are you attending?

    Four, only going to Villa away (providing I can get there). Bonfire versus football this time of year and Mayfield wins for today.

    [Football] The old West stand monkey chanters.

    I only went to the North Stand from the 1990s (and the north-east terrace a few times), but I didn't witness any of the things mentioned in this thread then. Maybe it would be better to say I didn't notice them, as I'm sure some things went on. My guess would be that it was much reduced by the...

    [Albion] Euro 3 match ticket download

    The text on the email says: "Your three match pack can only be downloaded on to one device, so please make sure you only click to download on the mobile device you plan to bring to the stadium every matchday" Let's hope it works still for those changing phones between the matches.

    [Albion] ***Europa League Group Stage Draw - Official Thread***

    Not an easy draw, that.

    [Albion] Why can't retrospective action be taken against cheats?

    I don't think it should be part of retrospective punishment, but it should be part of referee training, with them told how to spot this kind of thing. The FA could publicise it when it happens and keep track on which players to watch particularly. That would probably soon put a stop to it. The...

    [Albion] Aston Vanilla tickets

    Well, I'm enjoying being able to go to away matches again. First Wolves, now this. Looking forward to the next sale...

    [Albion] Europa League 3-game home ticket pack

    Yep, loads of choice. We’re going ‘upper’ for the first time in ages.

    [Albion] It's only going to get better folks

    Wolves were a lot better than Luton and will do ok this season. They were unlucky/unskilled in the first half and I’m sure RDZ knows this. Still great to be top of the league…

    [Albion] myAlbion+ membership pack 23/24

    Same here...

    [Albion] Well, wasn't that just tremendous fun?

    Wasn't quite sure in parts of the first half, but the second half was a lot better - our plan this season is to try and stay to the final whistle and we were certainly enjoyed doing that today!

    [Albion] Season Ticket Waiting List?

    My guess is if the ST sell out fast next Spring they may reinstate the list again. I will be looking to get a couple then, finally. This year we will be moving around the ground trying to decide where we'd rather be (if we get much of a choice).

    [Music] Albums you thought were legendary but no longer think so....

    Another Brick in the Wall (Part Two) and Comfortably Numb. I've only got those two from the album these days. I have tried to listen to the whole thing occasionally, but the rest of it is awful. Those two are not....

    [Music] Albums you thought were legendary but no longer think so....

    For myself - and remember this is albums you thought were legendary and now think a bit less of I would say "The Beatles" White album. Lots of great songs, but not such a great album. I wouldn't want to listen to it all the way through now that I can just listen to the good tracks on there. And...

    [Music] Albums you thought were legendary but no longer think so....

    Rubbish - it's crap apart from two songs.

    [Albion] Wolves Away

    This will be my first away game for around nine years - very much looking forward to it!

    [Albion] Luton at home sell out (almost)

    That and Newcastle selling quickly, West Ham and Bournemouth not so much. Is it all down to the away fans? I had an Evertonian next to me for the game against them last season, which was not the best feeling. He was, however, in his 80s and the only trouble he caused was his scouse cackling...

    [Albion] What are you particularly looking forward to next season?

    Going to more matches. We could only make it to a few last season, but have the chance of going more often this time.
