    [Albion] The Goldstone Ground - model

    It's better in the sense that it's comfier, less cramped and has better facilities I'm quite rose tinted on this, but I think those clubs plying their way in the lower leagues, playing in their historic and centrally located old ground, with a decent behind the goal terrace, have a lot that we...

    [Albion] EFL / Carabao Cup Third Round 24-25/9/24

    It would certainly be an honour for us to host one of the giants of world football

    [Albion] EFL / Carabao Cup Third Round 24-25/9/24

    Being one of the best sides not involved in Europe puts us in a strong position whoever we draw. Could really do it the rich kids starting to draw each other, if that's permissible now. We wouldn't want to have to beat 3 of the top 6 in the league to get to a final though

    [Albion] EFL / Carabao Cup Third Round 24-25/9/24

    Hoping we draw Barrow at home in the next round

    [Albion] Why was Fab sent off?

    I've no time for managers who send out their players to dive and cheat then complain that a decision has gone against them. But I think the standard of officiating isn't that high. The World cup or Euros ones all seem to be a lot better

    [TV] Nightsleeper........

    This sort of stuff is always decent escapist dramatic fare so not a complete waste of time to watch, if you just want something to wind down to in the evening. But I watched the first two episodes. The casting seems a little odd. The Welsh lass, doesn't seem believable The humour is...

    [Albion] Bennett's Field

    Yeh, my best guess is that when the time is right the land will come into Tony's ownership, but two things. He clearly won't be held to ransom over it and there would have to be a wider plan over and above just additional matchday parking

    [Albion] The Goldstone Ground - model

    You didn't imagine that. And interestingly enough there is a billboard very near the site on the Shoreham Road, but on the other side of the road just near the curry house. That flashes up different adverts for the normal different tat, but if you're lucky, you'll see an ad for an Albion...

    [Albion] The Goldstone Ground - model

    Just an incredible piece of work. Congrats to the model maker What a beautiful football stadium we used to have. I absolutely reject any notion that it was a dump. Though I can't in all honesty argue with the point about the bogs

    [Albion] We are not good enough…..

    But we're attempting more forward passes and more quicker passes. We're horseshoeing around the opponent penalty box much less. We're bound to give it away more

    [Albion] 32 years ago this very night………

    I was in the South Don't remember thinking it was a particularly remarkable event at the time

    [Albion] Teenagers (Scare the living....)

    ohhh Stato, Stato, Stato. It's all about the numbers with you excel types isn't it. All obscure football databases. How about focussing on the the quality of the goals for a change? Enciso, roofing 30 yarders against Chelsea and City Hinsh basically recreating Shearer against Holland in Euro...

    [Albion] Why was Fab sent off?

    Noticed also that Fab had the presence of mind to pass a message off to Crofty and Dunky. He did this straight away rather than pointlessly standing there arguing

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    It has to be one of two things. 1) There is a conspiracy amongst all print and TV news outlets, including GB News, the Daily Mail and the Telegraph not to print anything which could hurt the Labour Party 2) It isn't true

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

    So what's next for Jack? He's got a start in what seems must be his favourite position. He absolutely nailed his opportunity. Soon he'll have O'reilly, Milner, Gomez, Wieffer, Ayari competing for that place. But surely whatever fee we have paid for them, Jack is in pole position now. Him...

    [Albion] One law for the top clubs

    But it works though. It's all a performance. As long as targeting aggression, influences referees manager's will still do it. The clubs who have manager's who don't do that slip down the league and the majority will find another manager who can somehow "find those extra 5 points a season"...

    [Albion] One law for the top clubs

    Ref's being people, do what all people do and on a subconscious level opt for the path of least resistance. This means letting the clubs with aggressive manager's, hostile stadia, ex players shilling for them in the media and millions of social media followers get 55% of the 50/50 decisions...

    [Misc] The 'Class System' Exclusively British?

    Evolutionary biology, in my mind explains, pretty much all human behaviour and especially this. Watch any Attenborough documentary about a troupe of apes. Incredibly hierarchical. And our genes and the way we've evolved over 10's of millions of years have told us to behave in this way. A few...

    [Albion] Hürzeler’s (Brighton) Tactics

    Well yes. NSC seems to be under the impression that we should have gone to the transfer market, to buy two centre backs who have all the ball playing, header winning and physical attributes of Dunk and JPVH, but can also reel in Salah in a 30 yard foot race I bet our recruitment team would be...
