    Where have all the fans gone?

    I can confirm you are indeed not the only one. I have a meeting in Leicester later this afternoon so absolutely zero chance of getting to the Amex before kick off, so I didn't even try and get a ticket, so that's two people (me and my boy) who would have been there had it not been on a Thursday...

    Why are folk seemingly negative about us going up to the Prem?

    Serious question ... What is the prize money for finishing 17th in the Prem compared to the prize money for finishing 3rd in the Championship?

    As we're all still in the mood....35 years ago today...Newcastle 1 Albion 3

    WTF? Nobody can seriously be as miserable as that post suggests, you are clearly fishing ... not to mention totally inaccurate. We spent the next FOUR SEASONS drinking at the top table, I recall under Mike Bailey we were even sitting as high as 6th or 7th at one point ... it was an incredible...

    Player ratings Yeovil

    Have you ever played football? What a ridiculous comment. Lingard may not put in MOM performances every game, but he's worth his place in the team. His movement is excellent, he never stands still, his vision is good, he's got an eye for goal ... what's not to like? He must be a dream to play...

    Hoskins

    He was easily their most dangerous player, glad he didn't start.

    Hoskins

    You're easily impressed. Worth his place in their side maybe ... but looks too lightweight for a centre forward in the Championship.

    The pass that deserves it's own thread

    You're not wrong. The TV replay from behind the goal clearly shows it was Koosh who cleared it, although it looked more like a punch than a fingertip.

    Worst TV football pundit?

    Jamie Carragher for me also. It's like watching a rabbit caught in headlights ... he is so out of place in a TV studio. He might possibly have something interesting to say but I'll never know because within 10 seconds of him starting I hit the mute button. What on earth were Sky thinking of?

    UPDATED: Adam El-Abd SIGNS for Bristol City

    I don't think it will be weekly wage alone that swung these deals, I suspect contract length is a big factor. Wasn't contract length part of the problem in the Murray debacle, or is my memory playing tricks? Good luck to AEA, he never let the team, the club or himself down, a top pro ... but he...

    Mr Bridcutts value in your opinion

    I feel that many on here are incorrectly basing the value partly on what they've witnessed this season. I'm a strong believer in the old adage ... 'Form is temporary, class is permanent'. Bridcutt is class. His form this year is not up to his normal high standards, but Gus is no fool. Gus...

    Theo Walcott in trouble

    Fair point, and more proof if ever it were needed of how purile ALL football fans are. My take on the incident as I watched it live on TV was that Walcott had probably been taking dogs abuse from the Tottenham fans while lying on the ground, which continued as he got loaded up on the stretcher...

    Strong rumour (Re: January Sales)

    As this could well be the 100th post of this particular thread I thought it might be timely to point out the bleeding obvious .... IT'S A FECKING RUMOUR FFS!!! Some of you are talking like they're all done deals. In fact, in Bridcutt's case it's the same rumour that has been doing the rounds...

    Nomination For Nob Of The Day.................

    Speaking on behalf of BMW drivers, we get a lot of unjustified bad press. If you other plebs showed some respect and accepted that we should have the right of way there would be far less antagonism on the roads. Know your place .... :wink:

    Best player YOU have played against?

    Howard Wilkinson. Never actually played against him, but back in the 60's when he played for BHA, he came along to coach the u16's Brighton Boys side. He was unbelievably strong. I recall a drill where he was showing us how to shield a ball properly. He planted his feet, turned his back and...

    Ski/ Snowboarding 2013/14

    Me and my boy did La Thuile for February half term 2013. We did the link to La Rosiere twice while we were there, and it is a long tow that's for sure! We preferred La Thuile of the two, although we loved doing the boarder-x competition run in La Rosiere, that's was great fun! I heartily...

    Reasons to be cheerful ...

    No, I haven't started this thread to make you feel better. I'm hoping you optimistic grass is always green posters can make me feel better. I desperately want to feel the same way about Oscar as the poster who recently declared "he's the best Manager this club has ever had", but I need...

    Brighton and Hove Albion vs Sheffield Wednesday **** Official Match Thread****

    I'd rather we equalised in the last minute than been 1-0 up and then Wednesday equalised. Feel better about gaining a point than I would have felt about losing two points, but that's the only consolation I can think of.
