    [Albion] Say something nice about Palace

    They have an interesting name for a football club. I’ve always thought of the club and their fans (the ones I’ve met anyway) as being 'authentic'. I’ve always liked Eberechi Eze since his QPR days. I think he’s a fairly unique player. I’ve mentioned more than once — and no doubt will do so again...

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    I eat so much crap food when I drink that I've automatically dropped in weight since being dry.

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    There’s nothing wrong with any of those ideas — IF you’re the sort of person with the self-discipline to implement them. There are loads of devices for working more productively, time management, losing weight etc, and reducing drinking eg having a glass of water between each drink, moving on to...

    [Albion] If De Zerbi leaves, do you think Xavi would consider Brighton?

    Utterly pointless question based on utterly pointless speculation. If you have any solid information that RDZ is leaving the club, let’s have it. Otherwise just support the bloke and the club.

    Thanks, now purchased. Not that I feel I need a boost at all but am just interested.

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    Moises looks thoroughly miserable and seems to have become a much worse player. I know he was always a little ungainly but at Chelsea he seems to lumber around like a musclebound bodybuilder pumped up with steroids. Seems bereft of confidence too. I think he’s quite an emotional man who isn’t...

    [Albion] Do you want Palace to go down?

    I think we’re all in danger of sounding like a collective stuck record on this topic. A lot of Brighton fans dislike Palace, I get it. You want them to be consumed by a swarm of locusts, I get it. Some of us (a small majority according to that recent poll) enjoy the rivalry as far as it goes but...

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    They reputedly wanted £50m for Broja but football collectively guffawed at that notion. So they’ve loaned him to Fulham. According to ESPN there will be no loan fee if he plays 10 matches this season. So what Chelsea want and what they’ll get are two very different things.

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    No apology necessary and your post wasn’t condescending at all. Yes, it’s a tough one if you’re in your twenties and are used to heavy socialising. I can also relate to the difficulty in refusing the offer of a drink. As Oscar Wilde said, I can resist anything except temptation. The answer can...

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    Brilliant observation. I’d forgotten that this was something that really made me confront the question of how much I was drinking. Just after Christmas I peered into the recycling wheelie bin and saw it crammed full of tins and bottles. Yes I’d had a couple of visitors but still, I was staggered...

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    Good man. I forgot to mention the weight benefits. Like you I've not deliberately cut down on anything but I no longer need to eat cheese and biscuits late at night with my red wine, nor am I eating crisps and peanuts in the pub. Result is that sInce Jan 1st I've lost half a stone without...

    [Drinking] Dry January -- anyone continuing?

    For the first time ever I tried - and succeeded - abstaining from alcohol through January this year. Result? I feel a lot better for it, healthier and more clear headed, so have decided to continue with it through February. After that? Who knows, it could become permanent. Anyone else in this...

    [Palace] Were palace injury hit?

    That's ridiculously harsh. There is no way he would have played Olise if he'd been told he was at serious risk. He wouldn't even have been on the bench. It seems pretty obvious that he was following advice.

    [Palace] Were palace injury hit?

    The point I tried to make earlier, unsuccessfully it seems, is that it's not the number of players out, it's their importance to the team that counts. I was confident of beating Palace before the game but once I reached the ground and learnt that Eze and Olise were out, I was even more...
