    [Food] The Plant based burger

    Humans are 'naturally' omnivores. But our diets, on the whole, are so far removed from anything natural I am not sure it matters anymore.

    [Albion] Was it a red?

    To be fair, I voted red, mainly because I don't want us to be that type of fan base that can never see anything wrong with our own players. In reality, and seeing it properly, which I couldn't from the north stand when it happened*, I would say it could have gone either way, red or yellow, and...

    [Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

    About time this thread popped up. Thought he looked great and, as above, wasn't expecting that so quickly. Nice.

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

    He's made some lovely passes and been in the right positions, but crosses are sailing over his head. Not his fault but... Oh It's you. Never mind

    [Albion] Premier League 17-21/2/24

    Luton are riding their luck massively, while simultaneously looking like they could score at any moment. Good game to watch.

    Seemed to be playing on an AFCON high. Superb.

    [Albion] Sheffield United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Around 15 minutes for one of Ferguson, Billy or Moder to score. Don't care which.

    [Politics] Sir Keir Starmer’s route to Number 10

    I think he's correct. Up to a point. There is no constraint to government spending. The idea of equating a governent budget with a household budget is (deliberate) stupidity. However, if you are going to pump that level of funding into the economy, and don't want rampant inflation, then you also...

    [Albion] Sam Jewell

    No no. Ambitious clubs like Chelsea, Man City and Newcastle are the VICTIMS of FFP. It is very very unfair that clubs owned by petro-states and billionaires aren't allowed to spend as much as they want to buy the league.

    [Misc] Prophetic books

    The War in the Air. Written in 1907 Predicts the coming of World War(s). Written just 4 years after the Wright brothers first flight it explains how air power will become a dominant force in warfare. And, against the prevailing sentiment of the time, argues that Europeans are no more civilised...

    [Albion] Next BHAFC player to win a major International tournament?

    Pascal winning Euros for Germany is a great shout. Starts in squad but left on bench as they struggle and, barely, make it through the opening matches. Slowly gets played more and his subtle genius is recognised. Man of the match for Germany as they win the final. Please let it happen.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    And he has consistently refused to contemplate increasing tax on income from capital gains (essentially unearned income) to the same rate as tax on income from actual work. So I'd say it's fine to hold him accountable for the low rates of tax he pays. But then...Labour under Starmer have taken...

    Indeed. Brighton already won the World Cup. Now let's win the AFCON and then prepare to sit back and watch Lewis Dunk win the Euros this summer...

    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    He looked like he was tiring. Was happy to see him have a good game and go off uninjured. Nice we will get to see him in the final now.

    [Albion] FA Cup Fourth Round

    Would generally always want Chelsea to lose. But removing Villa from the competition would be helpful. IF we get past Wolves, would rather be facing Chelsea than Villa.

    [Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

    Agree, but would go further. Irrespective of whether or not it makes him a better player for brighton I just want him to win. He seems like a good lad. Works hard. Had an interesting path to where he is. And is one of us. That's enough for me. Go Simon!

    [Football] More possible FFP issues for Chelsea?

    I suppose your take on whether the (threatened) tightening up on implementation of FFP rules is the 'right' solution depends on what you think the problem is to start with. If it's just about clubs not getting into debt and not spending more than they can afford then yeah, you'll see the...
