    Incredible! :bowdown: Are there places along the way to top up your food and drink supply, or do you have to pack everything you intend to consume or get friends to meet you at various points to replenish your stock? Insane challenge BEFORE mentioning the Rhino! What a man.

    [Football] Milan - Sampdoria, Zlatan on the bench

    Meanwhile, in India, Owen Coyle's Chennaiyin FC are 2-0 down approaching half time away at Odisha FC. Obviously, Coyle's team are second bottom of the division. :lolol: Bottom of the table Hyderabad FC, managed by Phil Brown, got hammered 5-1 the other day with big Matthew Kilgallon at the...

    The first day of my training plan for Brighton today, 5 gentle miles at 8:50 per, including Elm Grove from bottom to top. I'm going to be taking it nice and easy early on, I'm carrying good form and fitness into the training this year, but I'm keen to avoid any kind of blowout if possible. I'm...

    Craig Mackail-Smith

    There was a bit of a finishing gaffe at Palace when Dunk had been sent off, we were 1-0 down and he went through and did everything right except the finish. Glenn would go on to stick the knife in with a couple, but had he netted the Burnley equaliser and then levelled it up at Palace, with ten...

    [Albion] Robert Sánchez

    Are we both being a bit hard on Walton though? He played a lot of football for Wigan in the Championship last season, albeit a bit in and out, and has played every game for Blackburn this season. He didn't fill me with any confidence at all at Crawley, but I haven't seen much of him for...

    He did a lot more than just that. :clap2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvvbs2FXJE4 I will always love the man.

    Craig Mackail-Smith was replaced by Alex Revell in the 85th minute. :ohmy: Neither scored, 0-0 draw. Nightmare!

    [Albion] Robert Sánchez

    He made some very good saves in a very unflustered manner, he did everything you'd expect and bar a kamikaze wave at a few crosses into the box, he was cool and composed. He looks a real prospect, but my concern is that his path into our team is very tough. Even if he gets a Championship loan...

    I do think it's expensive, but I'm cheap. :thumbsup: I will definitely check the links out, it doesn't need to be a headline marathon, just one which gives me the chance to get a sub-3 on the board. Sadly for me, I've not been sleeping well recently and this morning parkrun was a heavy price...

    I've not really got much on at work today, or yesterday, so I've invested many hours in building a training plan for Brighton Marathon 2020 AND cycling to Norwich. Based on my training plan (which includes Worthing Half and Lydd 20 Miles - both paid for today, and Hastings Half - which I haven't...

    [Albion] The annual waiting for the upper tiers to open thread.

    I'm really struggling with this one - on the one hand, I really fancy it and getting to see the fringe players is as much of the appeal as anything else. Button Schelotto Duffy Roberts Bernardo Baluta Stephens Jahanbakhsh Gross Gwargis Murray Would really interest me, but I have a lot of...

    [Football] Murray to Forest?

    I'd love to do it - luckily I work for a global company so the option is potentially there for me in future. Whilst I don't doubt the logistical side of it would be taken care of, and the importance of it, it doesn't really speak to every minute of every day in a totally new place. Having to...

    [Football] 3.01 pm kick-off. Time for some more preaching

    What an extraordinary thread, but sadly - all too predictable. The usual suspects unable to grasp that other people have a different life experience to them, and unwilling to understand why a one minute video may talk directly to many (statistically speaking, there will be dozens if not hundreds...

    You don't think moving countries is a big deal? :lolol: When did you last do it?

    [Football] Wesley and Heaton out for the season (Villa)

    Can we lend them Button and get a proper goalkeeper in to give Maty Ryan some genuine competition? I would suggest lending them Steele, but let's not take the piss too much. :thumbsup:

    [Football] West Ham to move for Chris Hughton?

    No, you misunderstand. Every job in the land wants him, but he doesn't want any of them. :thumbsup: That's been made very clear in the last few dozen pages.

    That's EXACTLY how I was on the morning of the 28th, I wanted to continue my run of consecutive parkruns, although accept the end of my streak of quick results, but I was totally gone. Hungover beyond comparison, except New Years Day 2019 when I was also desperately hungover and barely...

    [Football] West Ham to move for Chris Hughton?

    There can be absolutely no doubt whatsoever that our full Championship seasons (not the first half season, because we were #BrightonNil due to the horrific lack of talent in the squad) under Chris were amazing times to be a Brighton fan. Memories which will last for a life time, unlike 95% of...

    I am in no rush to see you record a 5k time in 2020, I quite like my existing silver medal in the table. :thumbsup: A nice 7.5 mile loop at lunch time for me in just under an hour, the usual Sea Life Centre to Rottingdean and back again in 8 minutes per mile. I went undercliff first this time...
