    [Football] Imagine going to Blackpool for no reason...

    A bit like Chichester and Bognor. I went to Chichester for the day a few months ago and had forgotten how posh it was. Couldn't see any homeless, charity shops, or litter. A few weeks later I unfortunately had reason to go to Bognor. It was clear that all of Chichester's low-life residents had...

    [Albion] Your Man of Match this evening?

    Dunk for me. Verbruggen runner up.

    [Albion] Dunk - straight red?

    Dunk was an idiot. He is old enough and experienced enough to know better. Not exactly a good example to set as captain is it?

    [News] Train strikes ahead

    Doesn't look too derisory to me: A four-year TfW offer is for 8.9%, backdated to 1 April, taking drivers to £63,200, with another 7.9% in April 2024, lifting drivers' pay to £68,300, Aslef said. A further 4.1% in December 2024 will take drivers' pay to £71,000, which will increase in April 2025...

    [News] Train strikes ahead

    The fact that ticket offices are being retained had nothing whatsoever to do with the strikes. And anyway, from what I read ticket office staff were going to be redeployed elsewhere (in customer facing positions) if that plan had gone ahead.

    [News] Train strikes ahead

    And how long will it take you to make up for what you lost on strike days?

    [News] Train strikes ahead

    Have these rail strikes achieved anything for the strikers? Thought not.

    [Albion] Gained or dropped?

    When we has all the possession in the first half we spent far too much time dinking the ball around at the back and in midfield with no sense of urgency whatsoever. We should have been pushing like hell for a second and third goal when we had them on the ropes. Stupid tactics.

    [Albion] "Finest night in 122 years"

    I think this is about the greatest NIGHT. Hereford was a day game wasn't it?

    [Albion] Player ratings vs Ajax (a)

    Agree with all those. Thought Igor was brilliant coming on after comparatively little game time and fitting in seamlessly.

    [Politics] The Right Honourable Suella Braverman. KC MP **Sacked 13/11**

    How about clean up, sober up and get a job. Like it or not that's pretty much a requirement in this world and the majority of the population seem to be able to function that way.

    [Politics] The Right Honourable Suella Braverman. KC MP **Sacked 13/11**

    Hate to disagree with so many of you, but she is absolutely correct. Tents adorning our city centres are a disgusting and should be removed the moment they appear. There are places which help the homeless. There is no need for them to be living in tents in our cities. And if it's their choice to...

    [News] The Assault on Jenni Hermoso

    If a brief kiss on the lips without "consent" is assault, then what is rape?

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

    Excellent first half? Really? I thought it was one of the most boring 45 minutes of football I've watched in a long time. We spent all our time passing the ball around at the back and in midfield with no sense of urgency to get the ball up the field. Embarrassingly poor performance in my...

    [Albion] James Milner sings

    From what I’ve seen Milner appears to be one of our worst signings. He was a very good player but clearly well past his best.

    [NSC] Charity,do you give?

    Very rarely except donating unwanted items to charity shops, usually hospice shops. Reason - far too much donated to the large charities is wasted on advertising, marketing, fancy offices, high salaries for CEOs and the like. And if it's a charity working overseas it's likely that much of your...

    [Albion] AK 13 BHA

    Sporty little red open-top sports car with this reg spotted yesterday in Marlow close to Bisham Abbey. Any Albion/England link?Thought immediately of Anthony Knockaert but that makes no sense!

    [Albion] 2 and a half hours before we could leave?!?

    The title of the thread highlights the single reason I would never ever consider going to an away game in Europe. No one is going to steal two or three hours of what remains of my life by keeping me penned in a football stadium after the game has finished. Millwall used to be bad enough!

    [Albion] Underrated Welbeck

    Poor?? Welbeck was awful this evening.

    [Albion] The elephant in the room - Our defensive record

    We were bullied off the ball constantly in the first 40 minutes and Wellbeck's ability to hold up the ball was non-existent. He had an awful half.
