    [Politics] Is it OK to say racist things if you're not racist?

    Edward Colston did a lot of business with Africans so presumably he can't have been a racist.

    [Albion] Calm Down

    Absolutely. 25 years ago what we wanted was a future in which we could just behave and react like normal football fans. Part of that is to be angry about putting a display that was shockingly poor in planning and execution in one of the most high profile games in our history.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    I think the term Blue Billion Pound Bottle Job could also be applied to our PM

    [Misc] 24/7 Cat Curfew - Australia

    My cat has never ventured far and we keep her in at night and first thing in the morning when birds are often foraging. In early January someone shot her with an airgun. 10 days in the Royal Veterinary College hospital in Potters Bar and 4 hours emergency surgery on a Saturday night saved her...

    [Albion] Are you going to Rome? + ticket allocation / purchase discussion!

    Can't go for health reasons and probably wouldn't get a ticket but I love Rome and the thought of the Albion playing there and so many fans enjoying the city and the experience. Have an wonderful time everyone!

    [Misc] London Overground lines renamed

    I use it quite a lot as my daughter lives in Camden Town. It is usually quite busy these days and the trains are reasonably new. I find it really handy if I need to head east or west from there rather than into the centre. On the subject of the name changes I live on what will be the Weaver...

    [Misc] London Overground lines renamed

    I live on the Weaver Line. As it is a tour of riot spots I think some recognition of civil unrest would have been better. Maybe the Baton Line.

    [Film] Most underrated movie

    I thought this was a remarkable and unusual film which deserved wider recognition.

    [Misc] King Charles has cancer

    I have Myeloma, which is treatable but not curable. There is a pretty standard treatment path with around 5 standard lines of treatment. You pass on to the next line when the line you are on stops working or is intolerable. You will probably follow this path whether you are NHS or private with...

    [Misc] King Charles has cancer

    For the past 2 years I have been spending a day a fortnight having treatment in what is called the 'chemo lounge' so I have spent many hours talking to other patients and sharing experiences. Cancer is a scary word but I have seen so many people having positive outcomes and managing treatments...

    [Albion] Luton Memories

    I've only been there once. A 2-1 win in 2008. Not much to remember except an unpleasant kebab, the backgarden entrance and our giving their fans a relegation countdown as we approached the final whistle.

    [Football] Subbuteo, What team you have in the opening box ?

    I had a similar situation with Brazil as I wanted a team with yellow shirts and blue shorts. This was almost a standard away kit and you could pretty much pretend they were anyone playing away. It would be fine now but they didn't look like many teams that came to the Goldstone in the early 70s.

    [Football] Subbuteo, What team you have in the opening box ?

    I had the red and white teams and I think the first teams I bought were West Ham, Liverpool, Leeds and Chelsea. Then my family bought a house in Hove I made my first regular trips to the Goldstone an got Sheffield Wednesday (I think) as they I could pretend they were the Albion.

    [Football] Franz Beckenbauer

    Every defender that adopts a fluid, methodical skills-based approach to their play has a debt to him. An absolute legend.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    I organised a visit from Skidmore to my workplace 5 years ago. Seemed very intelligent and decent. I couldn't understand what he was doing in such a dreadful party.

    [Misc] Downer thread - breast cancer.

    I have no personal experience of family members with breast cancer but for the last 5 years I have received almost constant treatment for incurable blood cancer. This has meant that I have spent many hours in chemotherapy units chatting to other cancer patients. This has shown me that there are...
