    [Albion] Premier League 16-18/9/23

    There's plenty of people confused by that offside on twitter.

    [Albion] The ceiling of this season

    I expect it to end every week, so I am still amazed by it all. It just does not feel real: This week we play our first European game on the back of a win at Old Trafford, which is our fourth consecutive league win against Manchester United.

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    I would worry about the extendable lead. I won't use one as I'm concerned about the ability to hold the grip. Rather than it breaking the risk is it being pulled out of your hand.

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    Sometimes we don't choose rescues. We have four and only one of them is one that we looked for, the others came to us through circumstance.

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    The dog fraternity (or some of it, they don't all feel the same) don't want the breed banned because they don't think the legislation works. The original act was introduced in a hurry for the same reason the government is acting now. Since that act there has been no reduction in dog deaths and...

    Not necessarily. It can be returned with conditions (neutering, muzzled in public, insured) if the dog is assessed as not dangerous in itself, and the owner is fit and proper.

    [Albion] Best piece of skill of the season so far?

    I think my words were along the lines of "don't do that again" with added expletives. How this is not on the list is beyond me.

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    Bully XLs specifically are not banned in the UK because they are outside the breed standard for a Pitbull, hence the clamour for addition to the list of banned breeds. There is no specific way to establish a breed other than the standard and then unscrupulous breeders just breed outside that...

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    Why is Cane Corso on that list? The problem with the prescriptive list is that new breeds, like the bully XL, come along to fill the void.

    [Albion] *new* Europa League Limited Edition "Pavilion" Kit

    ...which is exactly what I was expecting. It's a special celebration shirt, nothing more.

    [Misc] Anyone tried Pilates?

    I adore yoga (I ignore the mystic bits) and took some persuading to try Pilates. But once I tried it I realised exactly how good it is, and different from yoga. So I would happily recommend either or both. What I would recommend is paying a trainer, and if you don't get on with the first one...

    [Albion] I'm watching wee Billy

    Are we wanting Scotland to win then? Not sure that feels right.

    [Albion] ‘Brighton got our best young player and we got nothing’ (The Times)

    Presumably the point is that he is not contracted to Basingstoke so why should they be compensated? How would you determine who to pay if someone has no contract? Every club they have ever been coached by?

    [Albion] Three penalties denied

    The other word that is missing, but is often used in discussions is "proximity". I don't see why having your arm in an unnatural position but close to a player is OK. You could go in close and spread your arms like a goalkeeper and say "proximity" means it's not handball

    [Albion] Three penalties denied

    The FAQs don't seem to have been updated. The final one is: An attacker (Team A) attempts to pass the ball. A defender (Team B) makes a slide tackle to block the pass. The ball touches the right arm which is clearly extended away from the body and is not supporting the body. What is the correct...

    [Albion] 20 April 1997

    As long as you applied for them. I didn't realise Cambridge was all ticket for away fans until I got to the turnstiles. I've been to about 80 of the then grounds, including all of the Division 3 ones but that's not surprising as I went to most games of that very memorable season.

    [Albion] Do We Know The Dates for The Europa League Group Games Yet?

    Not quite. The sequences are HAHAHA AHAHAH HAAHHA AHHAAH IIRC (I did check it out but that was a few days ago).

    [Albion] Have you ever missed an important Albion goal

    I don't recall missing any important goals. But my record is missing three goals in one game. Home to Bournemouth in the Autoglass Trophy.
