    [Travel] Gibraltar is worth a visit ?

    Like others above. Been about 3 dozen times because of work and in all honesty... saw everything worth seeing on the first trip, the other 35 had just one redeeming advantage - cheap booze/cigarettes (may have, once or twice, slightly exceeded my allowance with never a hint of a search at...

    [NSC] Should NSC just be a football forum?

    As someone who once ratcheted up their post count because I wasn't in a great place and NSC was somewhere to come that was safe and welcoming, I now post very rarely and am more of a lurker. The score predictor and staying up tracker have been a weekly must visit for me though and am here...

    [Football] Jordan Henderson - Saudi move not about the money

    I for one most definitely would not be going somewhere that I wouldn't want my kids experiencing the oppressive culture and couldn't invite over half my family & friends because they are at risk of being jailed there. Feel free to throw millions into the equation, but the answer stays the same...

    [Football] Time to cut down on the schadenfreude?

    Actions have consequences. He is more than welcome to the consequences of chasing a pay packet ahead of anything else. I hope he disappears into a footnote in history as [almost] the most expensive player in English football, who chose to chase "personal terms" ahead of anything else. As an...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Just sad Everton aren't going with them. F**k off Leeds.

    [Albion] Where is your Albion Mojo?

    Has to be a 10. The only time we get beaten is when the Ref & Var are having a performance that deserves a letter of apology on the Monday morning (3 times this season is it??) Not only the results, but the football is beautiful to watch. And every time we lose our star (player/manager/tech...

    [Football] What is the earliest you have ever left a game?

    Half time. Can't recall the game but just about to take seat with FIL at kick off and got a phone call to say _and_son had broken his leg. Figured I had a good hour or more before I could see him so saw out the first 45mins and then left.

    [Football] Why is Illegal Streaming So Popular

    I am only interested in watching games we are in, home & away, and otherwise don't want anything else Sky offers, (or BT or Prime). So signing up at £50 a month for a handful of games a season just isn't viable. Let me watch all the Albion games at a reasonable price for the season and I'd...

    [Albion] Going to the Amex with boisterous kids

    8yo is too young (well, too short) for most of the North and I get why the stewards got iffy about standing on the seats. I would recommend the SW corner. It's like a family friendly version of the North (but sat down). Lots of flag waving too. _and_son and I started there when it first...

    [Albion] Ticket share issue help request

    Too many transfers in the season? Isn't there a limit on the number of times you can give up your ticket?

    [Help] Insurance help

    The mantra to keep reciting to your insurer, the claims management company, the other insurer... you are entitled to be put back in the position you were in before the event. If that was a mint van, with one careful owner and a full service history then you are entitled to that. You can't...

    [Help] Insurance help

    Was the written off van originally white and re-coloured or was it registered as "Black" from manufacture with DVLA? I've been out of this particular market for a while but we had very specific clauses in the wording that said that colour/livery was not covered unless declared as a modification...

    [Albion] The Premier League’s Big Six tore apart Southampton, now they are doing the same to Brighton

    Talking some sense there! We've been punching above our weight for some time now and it is far more likely that the natural order returns than we change football forever. Top half of the PL is a journey not a destination for all but the Top6 (7?). We ARE different to most clubs but we aren't...

    [Albion] Freefall down the league?

    Not the last one, because the money is ring-fenced so work can start any day now. Nothing to see here, no problem.

    [Albion] We are a remarkable club

    Perhaps controversial, but if Barber goes I don't think I'd worry... Paul is very, very good at his job but he is a "normal" chief exec doing what "normal" chief execs do (admittedly very well). Tony is NOT a "normal" club owner. He is very much out of the normal "in it for the...

    [Football] Leandro Trossard **Sold To Arsenal 20/01/2023**

    Villa are deparate for anyone who can hit a barn door with a ball. They'd take him off our hands in a second.
