    [Football] World Cup - Day Twelve

    Was that the one where Sounessians were claiming the disallowed "goal" was proof the championship needed goal line technology and kept harping on about it even though all evidence supported the on field decision?

    [Brighton] Living in a flat

    Good point about the lease conditions. You'll find most of the older ones insist on carpet everywhere except bathroom, and think cheap laminate on the cheapest thinnest possible underlay is very popular in rentals. Slightly OT but I got asked to sand and finish the floorboards of the ground...

    [Brighton] Living in a flat

    Just re read original post. Yes 80s there's a good chance of absolutely f*** all having been done. Have you identified which side is causing most trouble? Above/ below/ to the side?

    [Brighton] Living in a flat

    Your relatively modern purpose built flats either snuck in when there was very little regulation on sound proofing or if they do have it components have been missed and or it's been inadequately installed. While you can get significant sound reduction with a variety of systems they do need...

    [Food] Christmas Day Breakfast

    Depends which family we are Christmasing with. If the in laws then Christmas lunch will be on the table between 1 and 2 so a continental brekkie will be sufficient. If my side they are all unwilling and incapable of serving the main meal until 5 at the very earliest, past 7 quite likely. So...

    [Misc] Have you put the heating on yet? (2022/23 edition)

    Nearly had to turn it on when the old mum came round but got the kids to fetch her a blanket instead.

    [Travel] Mill Road P&R Chaos

    We need someone to sweet talk the local farmers. Firstly get Bennett's field back working, secondly it seems there is a track that can take you cross country from Inglesdlide Livery or Chalky Downs camping to the stadium. Now if whoever it was getting dropped off by 4x4 in this manner could...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Aston Villa *** Official Match Thread ***

    An attacking forced early sub. I'm guessing lamptey can't do anywhere close to 90 because otherwise Lamptey on for Lallana and groß moving infield seemed a better solution. Oh well back to my seat. Should be a cracker. Could still get dicked though.

    [Football] Who’s not watching the World Cup?

    Generally I only really get into watching the world cup after England are knocked out. It's at that point watching in a pub becomes less odious, most of the jingoistic commentary dissipates and anyone you find yourself discussing events with may well actually know something about football. The...

    [Albion] Carabao Cup Fourth Round: Charlton - 3rd allocation of tickets

    Last there for a boxing day fixture. We lost. I was hanging. Mainly remember it because it was my excuse not to join the family at Christmas panto. I'd been undecided but called ticket office the second I heard of the panto group outing plan. Great move. I was back enjoying a second turkey ham...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    While there was a definite element of luck in De Zerbi being available you have to admire the club's preparedness. Barber had spoken before about having succession planning for everyone at the club, and it's easy to imagine many clubs starting the process from scratch if their manager was...

    [Albion] Pitchside Arsenal v Brighton

    I see what people meant about that f***ing drum. The only acceptable use for a drum at a football match would be to smash over the heads of the England band to shut them up.

    [News] Eastbourne Horror House - What on earth??!

    It's much worse now. My mum was briefly what is now called an EWO (educational welfare officer) in the 70s. She would visit families whose children weren't attending and while some cases were those of incredibly dysfunctional families others were out of school having caring responsibilities...

    When did a Brighton manager last leave for better things AND it worked out?

    [News] Eastbourne Horror House - What on earth??!

    I have found social workers to be generally extremely kind and worthy people, catastrophically overworked and struggling below an enormous weight of human misery with precious little resource to do anything. Though I'm guessing the questions you refer to do not include "what do you need?"
