    [News] Journalism Today

    The lack of genuine reporting is how we ended up with the completely fake and deliberately drawn out "outrage" about Shamima Begum. It is the lowest point for genuine journalism so far as I'm concerned - it was so poor, it barely constituted being referred to as journalism.

    [Albion] Kayal/Hemed

    People need to let go of the "stamp" thing. He was always going to lose his place when Glenn was fit, because Glenn is vastly superior in every single sense. Tomer had his chance in the Premier League, and wasn't close to being good enough. No shame in it, he was bought to play in the...

    [Albion] what do the sightings mean.....?

    I was dangerously overtaken on my bicycle by Gaetan Bong the other day, beautiful Mercedes to be fair to him. Maybe he just wanted to make damned sure I noticed his sparkling motor, or maybe he instinctively knew what I think of him still being in the squad. Who knows!

    [Other Sport] Cycling geeks

    I managed to narrowly avoid being wiped out this morning, why do these things mostly happen in the rain?! I was cycling downhill, easily doing 20mph because it's a long downhill and I was about halfway and I spotted a car in the midst of performing a u-turn so it was at a dodgy angle to see what...

    [Albion] The Ambition to being Top 10 club.

    It's better for me that I don't. :lolol: I'd pump a lot of cash into the local economy in other ways. Overall, it's better in Tony's pocket than mine. I have nothing like his self control.

    [Albion] The Ambition to being Top 10 club.

    We need to buy the site at Black Rock and get planning permission for a 50,000 seater stadium. Then we need to expand the Volks Railway to cope with the increase in demand and re-route the park and rides. It would be easier to get people ferried directly to Brighton station post match, you could...

    I made a better fist of the 5 x 1 mile session today; 6:41, 6:31, 6:28, 6:42, 6:36. I wanted them to be closer to 6:30 but given where I was last tuesday, this is a massive improvement. Still nothing compared to the parkrun of saturday just gone, but a better session.

    [News] Gambling

    :lolol: Completely. Any money left in your pocket? GIVE IT UP! On another note about Vegas, I was very surprised that there's a Lush store in the Miracle Mile of shops. And got to watch Everton vs Burnley from a sports bar in there with a cocktail so strong, it was basically glowing. Marvellous.

    [Misc] Hey Lefties!

    :bowdown: Lefties are the finest of all society, that's just how it is. Although I'm one of the bad ones, I write left handed, play pool and snooker left handed as well. But tennis and darts are right handed. ??? I can't throw left handed either, it feels totally wrong. I'm also natural...

    [News] Gambling

    I spent three days in Vegas in early May, staying in a hotel on the strip. What was most amazing was how every shop turned into a casino - even a Walgreens! You walked to the back of the store and boom, casino. It was bonkers beyond description. As a reformed gambler, I had no problems at all in...

    I enjoy the Half for many reasons - the hills are one of them, I set my Half PB there in 2015 and it took me until Worthing 2018 to beat it! I don't expect to run this one particularly quick, but it's a lovely race (except for the mile stretch on an A road!). Another of the reasons is that it...

    I am going to be making my debut at the Isle of Wight parkrun on saturday, something to look forward to before Kettering the following week. Until then, I've got a lot of miles to pile into this week, starting with a 7 mile recovery run at 8 minutes per mile today. I managed an average of 7:59...

    [Music] Favourite TV Football Pundit

    Michelle Owen is fantastic, having a difficult pregnancy at the moment which is going to keep her off the TV in the coming months. :down: I'm a big fan of Gary Neville, he's really grown into the role and speaks with clarity and honesty whilst never trying to hide his Man Utd bias, but not let...

    25 Man Squad [2019 Edition]

    No Hemed in the photo. Also seems a bit strange to me that Bruno and Ben Roberts are on the end of the bottom row, rather than sat with the coaching staff.

    I've made a nice spreadsheet of all my 110 parkruns - and I've discovered that I only twice ran sub-19 parkruns in 2018 and I haven't gone under 19 since 9th June 2018. :down: I'm up to 9 sub-19s and two 19:00 dead. 42 of the 110 are sub-20 and 9 are over 25 minutes, including Peacehaven's debut...

    [Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins Feyenoord

    Keep the faith. This is a long season, players will pick up knocks and injuries or lose a bit of form, we'll need the full squad. This time last year, nobody would have believed Locadia would start the opening game (having been almost universally picked to start in the various, "Teams for...
