I would be interested in the tactical thoughts behind sending goal kicks long when you are one goal up and down to 10 men. I understand that if you are a man down then it is harder to play our possession football but if you send it long when you are a man down it is almost certainly just coming...

That is a good idea. Could also do the same thing at the Amex end.......have the P&R bus drop off at the 25 bus stop at the University and avoid all the delay getting into and out of the Amex.

1st Hove !

I know that Paul Barber has deflected questions about transport to and from the ground in the past. However, it has become the biggest difficulty about match day for many ( probably most ) people. It would be nice to know if the club acknowledge that and if there are any possible improvements...

I've certainly enjoyed my trips to Marseilles and Ajax ! However, that does not change the contention that domestic football suffers because of the expansion of European football......look what has happened to the League Cup and FA Cup, and the awful impacts of fixture congestion on league...

Make UEFA cut back on European football competitions rather than the current expansion which is completely to the detriment of domestic football.

I know this isn't quite the sort of thing you had in mind, but...... Songs need to be to tunes which are easy to remember and to sing. One tune which would be easy to sing and very appropriate for Brighton is.......' Oh we do like to be beside the seaside '. If someone could come up with some...

I was in Edmonton, having moved there from England in January 1982. It broke my heart not to be at Wembley for the game but we simply could not afford the flight back. Compounded by the fact that my parents had arranged to visit us for ten days which included the final date. They were also...

I was living in Canada at the time and the game definitely was shown live. I watched it with my dad who was visiting. CBC initially said they wouldn't show it but relented after getting lots of complaints.

Conversation on the train back to Euston yesterday was that clearly most ( 85% ? ) of fans actually inside the grounds would like VAR to be binned. How can we harness and coordinate the fan voice to effect change ? Some sort of social media campaign would surely go viral. But you'd need to...

None from Japan......?

This is rather off topic, but I used to love walking by the ground coffee shop on George Street. I didn't, and don't, drink coffee much but the smell there was lovely.

1962, Rotherham. I was 8 and my Dad took me on a work trip in his van to somewhere up there close enough to go to the game. All I remember is that we lost by a lot. Just looked it up and we lost 2-5.

And, what about Solly......?

That would be best for us, but not for Lewis. So, I can't hope for that....

I don't think he did. It looked as if he played the advantage and after we recovered the ball went back to the foul by Pascal.

In 1978 I went to a game at Millwall on my own. I was sensible enough not to wear colours. The atmosphere outside the ground was a bit ominous and there was no sign of other Albion fans. I decided that it would be safer to go in the Millwall family area than anywhere else, especially the area...

Decent analysis from this Liverpool fellow. If he is correct then it should have been red unless Pascal was making an attempt to play the ball or it wasn't a goal scoring opportunity. In any event Pascal should have been booked.

Thanks all. I'm through the first half now and headed to better things. I'm surprised that the tv doesn't come even close to catching the intensity and noise of the crowd.

Does anyone know of any way to watch a full match replay of the Marseilles game ? Then I could see the first 13 minutes for the first time and the rest of the game in a calm light and without netting......
