Of course it's rigged. I mean, that would only be criminally illegal, nothing more than that. And the fact that it was conducted behind closed doors in such a secret way does make you wonder :ROFLMAO:

All this build up to let us down with Arsenal or similar away.

Well, yes. The Goldstone had 30,000 crowds in the 70s so would have coped without huge change. I wasn't a fan of having a ground at Falmer, but it was the only viable option and now its home. And it's a nice home. I don't miss the Goldstone, but I wouldn't mind being dropped back in the late 70s...

Yes, this 'shithole' thing is quite irksome when you see it banded around among mature adults. Most places have some sort of merit because most places have good folk in them. I feel a bit sorry for Newhaven because when I visited one Saturday afternoon to take a look it seemed like everyone had...

Interesting thought. I found my mind wandering on the that. They would probably have had to buy the road behind the South Stand and somehow create a West Stand/North Stand curve. But let's say all that was possible, I'm sure folk would have liked that as a central location over Falmer. But to...

Playing the beautiful game! first bowled a ball over forty four years ago, and still, erm, watching now

I've just used it and asked: 'Tell me the history of East Side Cricket Ground in Brighton' It was a cricket ground in the Queen's Park area that was built over in the 1880s. ChatGPT conflated it with the County Ground, took my corrections and kept making up a load of utter tosh ! I now put in...

Great initiative. I wonder what it would feel like to be so immersed in what was happening.

Is that what he said ? because that he aint.

I don't agree with vote rigging as the best in the category should be determined by its appeal and not the whims of a football forum. But I took a look and voted for it as it was the best. I didn't scroll as far as the other ones.

Looks like Match of the Day were there when the modeller made it. They used to put one of those things up.

Little quiz question. When was the last time Albion were beaten by the same team in both cups in the same season ?

If you were so drunk you didn't know what round we were in then I'll have what you had for Chelsea this weekend.

Alas no. The last quarter final was 1979 at Forest. Some folk saw it... others listened on the train.

Don't start that heated balls thing again. 2022-23 Chelsea were dumped out of both cups away at Manchester City.

If we can get to the Quarter Final it will be the first time in 45 years ! Can we have a straight forward (if that is ever possible) home tie ?* *It'll be away at Manchester City won't it ?

And he went straight into the wrong position and we scored shortly afterwards. I used to go to all the games home and away but for some reason I wasn't at that one.

That's my kind of nerd. I spent hours working out how I would have got to the Goldstone Ground by train had Beeching not made his cuts. I remember being very excited the first time I traveled on the Uckfield line. And that wasn't that long ago.

How strange. I made an association with Notts County too. I wonder if they also had someone else with an equally similar name as Sirrel. Strange how the old brain works.
