    [Albion] THE RUN IN -confirmed: the final 7 games

    Yes, your reply beat me by 5 minutes. But who decides which night shall we say Arsenal v Man City will be played? TNT so it doesn't clash with Eastenders? But it is shown all over the world.

    [Albion] THE RUN IN -confirmed: the final 7 games

    The 'draw' has been made and City, should they go through, will play either Arsenal or Bayern. City have been deemed the Away team in the semi final. As there are only two games, it must have been decided already which game is played when.

    [TV] Anyone got any tips for a new smart T.V.?

    LG here and very impressed with it. I also had Panasonic before, indeed for the last 20+ years all my audio & video gear was Panasonic including my video camera. As they use AVCHD format I needed a card reader in the TV to watch back my holiday videos. When I went over to LG (my 1st 4K TV) there...

    [Drinking] The Pub Debate - Weatherspoons

    Spoons. You walk in because it is cheap, simple. And for that reason they keep it cheap, sell a lot more and so buy more at better prices. I know a few people in the trade. One brewer of a national brand who refuses to sell to Spoons as they want to pay so little for his beer. I can buy a barrel...

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

    I've worked out what has gone wrong with the season. Pre Rome I purchased two new jumpers and have worn one or the other for every game since (except Forest, needed washing). So today I've dug out my now 'gardening' jumper to wear again. Guaranteed win!

    [Albion] Burnley pubs

    Cricket Club next door. If the sun shines it is a great site of 100's of Albion fans sat out on the stand.

    [TV] Race across the World.

    What I don't understand is that at some point in the race, normally two thirds through, they all race for the same 'only' ferry across a sea. Strangly, at that point, they are all back together again.

    [Football] Football players mis-remembering their accomplishments

    I think it's great that Hamish Morrison keeps his shirt framed and boasts of playing for The Albion, even for one game, that he didn't play in.

    [Albion] THE RUN IN -confirmed: the final 7 games

    I've just looked on the ticket site and Chelsea isn't showing plus two of the other three have 'either' dates. Don't think I've ever seen a fixture list so confusing.

    [Albion] THE RUN IN -confirmed: the final 7 games

    So difficult to predict. We could easily get 16 points. WLWWDWW At the same time we could get 0 I reckon 11 WLDDLWW. Fishy preditor shows Chelsea 8th on57 pts so turn those two D's into W's.

    [TV] Night coppers

    Going to get political here, as I expect I did in the other thread. I've two shops on the seafront. I pay all my taxes, VAT and rates, as do all the other small independant shops in town (well most). And yet I never see a copper on the streets during the day. I lose around £20 a day of goods to...

    [Football] Europa League Final tickets

    OK, an hours walk or 15 mins by taxi. But both in Dublin, the latter to be filled with Liverpool & Rangers fans for the final. Anyone told them one of those two teams got knocked out? The 2024 UEFA Europa League final will be played at Dublin Arena in the Republic of Ireland on Wednesday 22 May...

    [Football] Europa League Final tickets

    Don't worry, UEFA have booked the 82000 capacity Croke Park, which is next to the 48000 Aviva Stadium, to be used as a fan zone. I wonder why they didn't booked the bigger stadium for the game?

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

    Think about this. Allegedly Man City, Chelsea & Newcastle have all broken the rules. 7 or 8 teams will qualify for Europe next season but we may finish 9th because three teams above us have overspent to get where they are. Is that fair? Obviously the answer is no but nothing will happen this...
