    [Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**

    How did he do against Brentford? I'm guessing he got to play as a number 10 with both Mitoma and Adingra also starting?

    [Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

    Isn't that exactly what you've done by coming to a negative conclusion of him after his first few minutes of senior football? And then compounded that criticism by repeatedly doubling down on it. You are right though, it is very early days, far to early to make any concrete observations beyond...

    [TV] UK Comedy Cup - Group G

    I watched an episode of the young ones last night. It was quite good. What it wasn't was genius like the day today. This feels like a loss for the world, not just comedy.

    [Albion] Would failing to qualify for a European competition this season be a disaster?

    I'd say qualifying for Europe is a big deal. Huge, in fact. However it is a tremendous reward rather than an expectation. It's more like rewarding a child for outstanding exam results or behaviour or some other achievement rather than an annual event like Christmas. The thread also framed...

    [Albion] Would failing to qualify for a European competition this season be a disaster?

    Someone is going to have to explain how it can be seen as a setback, let alone a major one or a disaster. Setback to what exactly? Do people seriously think that one season finishing 6th means that that is our natural place? Even Tony Bloom stated that the long term target is to be a top ten...

    [Albion] Sanchez v Dunk

    This feels more like one of those brief spats you have over the years - like we've had against orient, cardiff, reading etc. It'll be enjoyable while it lasts but long term we can't match Chelsea or compete at their level. Unless they get chucked out the league, the Todd does one and they go...

    [Albion] Positives from today (Chelsea away)

    It was very entertaining. I've gotten pretty good at watching games in the small hours without making much noise to wake/annoy the neighbours. Tonight I was effing and blinding and hollering at the tv from the 40th minute onwards. That's the sign of an enthralling, exciting, emotional game...

    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Apparently if VAR overturn a refs onfield decision the game has to be restarted with a drop ball so although he gave the penalty after the ball had gone off the pitch we couldn't get the corner. So the ref f***ed us over with his shit penalty call! Sometimes you just cant get a break...

    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    What the actual f*** was that second half?! I was in emotional tumult at half time...I don't know what the word is to describe what I'm feeling now. That end of the match penalty/corner/goal kick thing feels like the 2023 version of that man utd after the final whistle penalty. What was...

    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I'm in emotional tumult. Before the game I was expecting a defeat. At 2-0 down and a flat performance from a tired, bare bones team I was at peace with the result. Then Buonnanote puts one in the corner and the palace prick Gallagher (how on earth is he the captain) gets sent off and suddenly...

    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Club website have Baleba at centre back, Igor LB and hinsh midfield. I'd guess that its Igor at cb, hinsh at LB and Baleba in midfield. It seems strange to play two of them rather than just one out of position.

    [Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

    That will do him the world of good. De Zerbi talks about him from 3:04 in his interview. He calls him a big player already and compares him in personality to Dunk, Gross, Lallana and Welbeck. That's some praise for an 18 year old. Have we potentially got our next Dunk?

    [Albion] AEK Athens FC vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I bloody LOVED watching that! That was exactly what I wanted from a European game. Away in an incredible, passionate, noisy atmosphere against a team bang up for it, tackles flying in, we're under the kosh and just digging in and grinding out a win. Magnificent!

    [TV] UK Comedy Cup - Group G

    Man this is tough viewing. I can't believe the day today is on it's way out. It would be a worthy winner of the whole competition. When Partridge is just a bit part character and the show is no worse for it you've got absolute gold. Still, that's world cup/nsc tournaments for you. You've...

    [Albion] Athens Pubs / Bars

    Is that the Acropolis in the background? This is the game more than any of the others that I wish I could have gone too. Albion in europe and a holiday in Athens/Greece rolled into one. Enjoy it everyone!

    [Albion] January 2024 Additions

    I'd like a first team ready left back. We don't know how long Estupinian will be out and I think he is quite high up on the possible summer departures list so to get his replacement in nice and early would be good.

    [Albion] Dunk - straight red?

    Do we know what he is supposed to have said? I've not read all 350 posts to find out so apologies if it's already been mentioned.

    [Football] How big is Mitoma back in Japan

    I saw a small kid in a Brighton Mitoma shirt at an Omiya Ardija game a few weeks back. I played it cool by nodding and saying nice shirt. The kid and his parents looked blankly at me. The game, if you are interested, was awful. Reminiscent in the cluelessness of the teams to watching us when...
