This is true, but part of me is annoyed because this seems like an unusually good time to play Man City. Having said that, I'm sure a lot of teams are thinking "this seems like an unusually good time to play Brighton". But yesterday feels like a turning point to me and I feel like one more game...

When De Zerbi came out with that "he's the future of this club" statement, I felt a bit weird about it. Seemed like too much pressure on the shoulders of an untested player (at this level). After yesterday, I get it now.

Of all our departing young superstars, he's the only one about whom I found myself thinking "this isn't the last time we've seen him in Albion shirt". I honestly think we'll get a swansong from him when he's at the other end of his career.

Mac was obviously a great penalty taker for us. But, as someone who only ever sees our games on telly (I live overseas), whenever the camera would zoom in on his face before the kick, I'd look at him and feel worried. He'd then score, but I'd be watching through my fingers because I felt like I...

Came here to say pretty much this. Without Nicky Rust on the list, it was an easy decision, of course it's Kuipers. Only Rust would have given me a reason to pause and think.

Liverpool were absolutely robbed and it's a disgrace. I hope it's just a coincidence that Spurs were the beneficiaries, as they were last season against us. But it's sticking in the throat a bit that the entire UK football media seems to be in agreement that this cannot stand and Something Must...

The result I'm dreaming of is that we win 3-1 or 4-1, but their goal is an own goal - it'd be their goal of the month by default, as they haven't scored since the 30th of August and, after today, don't play again until the 2nd of October. After everything, it'd just be too funny if a Brighton...

I get where you guys are coming from re head injuries, it's maddening when teams use it as a spoiler tactic. But the opposite would be worse - we can't have genuinely concussed players being forced to play on for the last ten minutes of a game, it'd end in disaster.

Belinda Carlisle singing "Heaven is a Place on Earth" on Top of the Pops some time in the late 1980s. Having just found the video, it was in 1988, which means I was 8 or 9 at the time. Not impossible that I had an earlier crush, but Belinda's the earliest one I remember.

That's an oxymoron if I ever saw one (see, I DID learn something in Mr Halon's year 8 English class!)

Gilmour for me. He's the only player who did nothing wrong, I can't recall a single mistake that can be pinned on him.

I pronounce it "scone", obviously. Only absolute maniacs pronounce it as "scone" instead.

On paper AEK at the Amex was the easiest game we're gonna get in this competition. It's not looking good, we'll probably struggle to get out of the group now - and that's really deflating after the exhilaration of qualifying at the end of last season. But yeah, in the grand scheme of things...

Sorry if fixtures, but I'm sure we've all seen that stat that only three teams have recorded four consecutive Premier League wins against Man U - us, Liverpool, and Man City. I don't know when each those sequences of wins happened (apart from ours of course), but it occurred to me that it's...

Anyone got a clip of this one?

Whatever option I pick is almost always the most popular one, and whatever option I pick is absolutely always incorrect. So you can guarantee it won't be Utd 1 - Albion 2.

I don't think it's that deep tbh. The social media stuff is necessary because she wants people to sign up to her Onlyfans, which means she needs attention. What would she be doing if not this? Most likely working behind a bar or a supermarket checkout for poverty wages that aren't even enough to...

That run felt like Lockdown Lamptey

He treated Micky Adams really crappily when he took over Fulham. Adams definitely didn't deserve the sack, having just led them to promotion, but Fayed couldn't resist the temptation to replace him with a big name in the form of Kevin Keegan. But that meant Adams was free to join us and finally...

Don't ask me why, but I feel like JPVH is the seventh
