They are dedicating 'We Want Falmer' to Sarah. I reckon 'Donkey Derby' is the best track too actually :)

It's one that trains dogs to assist people with disabilities. Paul Samrah said 'Canine League' but I can't find that on the web. Anyway, the money will go to her folks, and they will know what to do with it.

Time flies. Next Thursday, 15 January, is the 10th anniversary of the day ‘Tom Hark (We Want Falmer)’ the single we brought out as part of our long and hard fought campaign for the new stadium, reached Number 17 in the Top 40. I know opinions are divided as to its worth as a musical opus (!)...

If they hadn't been funded by the West the Afghan Army would have defeated them and the whole poison would have been crushed in its infancy. Charlton beckons :)

More than THREE decades ago Bin Laden and the forerunners of AlQaeda, the 'brave Mujahedin freedom fighters of Afghanistan' (thus described by the BBC reporters embedded with them in the hills above Kabul from where they made raids into the city bombing schools and throwing acid in women's...

I've read Charlie Hebdo many times. It is a no holds barred left wing political satire magazine - in some ways a paper version of me. It's just been murderously attacked by Islamist fascists who object to their religion being satirised. It seems we are all targets now. SOLIDARITY WITH CHARLIE HEBDO!

That is so, so sad. I am completely shocked. She was a passionate Albion fan, which meant that in the worst of times she was absolutely dedicated to the campaign to save the club. And I mean DEDICATED. The transformation from quiet conservative mild mannered Sarah to raging angry campaigner was...

Interesting. Don't know why the bankers' apologists are worried about Syriza, they're hardly left wing , their economic vision is positively Keynesian....Happy New Year :)

Yes, welcome to Chris Hughton A left winger for sure He once wrote for the News Line but doesn't any more :)

Bollocks to tippy tappy. Let's get Pulis in, sign Nicola Zigic and get Halford to aim the ball at his head every time we get a throw in the last quarter of the pitch. That will cut out the middleman good and proper :)

Best band of 2014 by a street :)

A tactically unaware Finn Reluctantly went to the bin. There wasn't much grief Just a sigh of relief And a hope that, one day soon, we win.

It was a positive meeting. Paul Beirne definitely wants to engage with supporters in a way which hasn't happened for a while and do whatever is possible (may be more, may be less) to end the 'fragmentation' of the atmosphere in the North Stand. The main suggestion in this regard is that...

Personally I think the whole 'celebrity culture' sucks, precisely because it drags people, however well meaning, into that vapid, greedy world. Nice to bump into you the other day :)

'When I was poor they said I was bitter. Now that I'm rich they say I'm a hypocrite'. Not a fan of Brand, but he does make some important points, and that was a fairly spot on riposte, IMO. Not as good as the reply from Italian 1994 World Cup manager Arrigo Sacchi who, when asked whether his...

When we did the original push for real ale it was supposed to be Harveys and Dark Star Hophead, a lighter and obviously very hoppy brew which IMO would be far more to the taste of the 'lager drinkers who might try an pint of real ale' among our support. Sadly, Dark Star really weren't up for...

This is possibly the best post i have ever read on NSC, and it gets my first ever thumbs up. Which is not because I haven't liked quite a few others but this is the first time I've taken notice of the thumbs up thing :)

A bunch of 8th century fundamentalists based in backward rural areas would not have defeated the Afghan army on their own. And it was policy to deliberately stir up, arm and train the fundamentalists and encourage them to grow. According to this 1998 interview with Zbigniew Brzezinski, the...

Seeds sown long ago. The West financed and armed the original fundamentalist Taliban lunatics in the late Seventies (then described by the likes of the BBC as 'brave Afghan freedom fighters' and by Ronald Reagan as 'the moral equivalent of America's founding fathers') as they threw acid in the...
