    [Albion] Roma tickets 45€

    To enforce the ‘born in the UK’ condition it will be necessary for all home fans to bring their passports to prove their birthplace. I’m not convinced this will happen.

    [Albion] Welcome to new Roma NSCers...

    Then you will be favourites. I’m not sure Lukaku is a plus though. When I last saw him he was in Dan Burn’s back pocket.

    [Albion] Anyone booked through Booking.com?

    I have used them in the past and it was fine. Sounds to me like the fault here lies with the accommodation itself rather than the website. Discount offers/points etc are just how they operate. Air bnb do something similar with discounts. When we booked an Easter break with them last week the...

    [Football] Chelsea v Leeds - who do you want to win?

    Agreed. A QF anywhere in the North would be perfect.

    [Football] Everton deduction reduced to 6 points [Update 8/4: ...and another 2 points]

    Of course. We play our part in putting the pressure on the authorities as and when we can. One day the boot may be on the other foot though. I’m in no way supportive of Everton. I’m just saying that I also won’t be backing Brighton in similar circumstances.

    [Football] Everton deduction reduced to 6 points [Update 8/4: ...and another 2 points]

    I read Grand Old Team occasionally. There are some minor dissenting voices that differ from the Everton fan line but just like on NSC they tend to get shouted down. Most posters on here automatically see cheating by opposition players and not by our own. Every decision should have gone our way...

    [Football] Everton deduction reduced to 6 points [Update 8/4: ...and another 2 points]

    If I were Tony I would be looking at a 6 point deduction for non compliance with FFP and wondering whether it’s much of a deterrent at all. There comes a point when spending big and flouting the rules may actually become worthwhile, particularly if it yields a European place. I am not surprised...

    How come your son supports BHA ? And who do you support ?

    [Football] Bruno Fernandes - cheat

    Tbf my spell checker/corrector/predictor often makes a mess of names. It did it to me as well for his name earlier in the thread. I had no idea how to spell his name so looked it up and copied it incorrectly a couple of times before getting it right because the spell checker continued to try to...

    [Football] Bruno Fernandes - cheat

    Yup, Brighton fans are just as one eyed as all other fans. Whenever I read the forums of clubs we have played it is the polar opposite of what’s on here.

    [Football] Bruno Fernandes - cheat

    My spell checker doesn’t seem to care how long he has played for Brighton. Palace fan I guess….

    [Albion] Was it a red?

    Perhaps the more important point is that nobody is trying to persuade you. As a fan you are there to watch and suport your team. The only person that needs to be persuaded is the referee.

    [Albion] Was it a red?

    More to the point I don’t know why he (and all the other managers who only see the game through their own lenses) bother. The Fulham and Man U managers probably the worst offenders. We can all see through their bullshit. It doesn’t change anything. A ref won’t blow up earlier for them the...

    [Football] Bruno Fernandes - cheat

    At one point this is exactly what was going to happen. Just like moving the ball forwards 10 yards for encroachment at free kicks this seemed to get quietly dropped while everyone obsesses on subjective decisions to ‘analyse’ in game.

    [Albion] Was it a red?

    As you say, your view depends upon the angle you look at it. That is exactly why consistency is not the issue. Clearly people (including referees) take different views on red cards (even on this thread) so there won’t be any consistency. It’s a waste of energy to expect it.

    [Football] Bruno Fernandes - cheat

    Well, yes. Not the only one though is he. There is at least one example of feigning injury and miraculous recovery in every single PL match. Immediately Kieran Trippier springs to mind from last night’s game at Arsenal. Closer to home Buonanotte is a repeat offender.

    [Albion] Was it a red?

    I’ve only watched the 3 minute highlights on Sky but I don’t see a foul let alone a red card. Yes, there is contact with one leg but it doesn’t amount to much. The Everton player then exaggerates by rolling around as though his other leg has been amputated. I can see why the ref was conned...
