    Brighton's WORST PUB World Cup - nominations

    It was really good when it was the PV - it was only the PV for about a year when the people who had the original PV on Upper North Street (that became the Biscuit Factory when they left, and is now Craft) moved it to there - and has been the Jury's Out before and after (has been the Jury's Out...

    Tickets for Charlton

    Years gone by we would have a smaller allocation though. Selling out 700 or whatever at Withdean is a whole different proposition to selling 2,600 or whatever at the Amex. Also, to be fair, Charlton are known for a poor away following - in the Premier League we used to take 400-450 tops to...

    If we fail to get 3 points against charlton tomorrow

    Cool. Cheers. I know Lewes well (I've lived in Brighton since '93 and one of my best mates has a pub in Lewes). Just wasn't sure re the travel element of the match tickets - the rules seem to change in some way every season! Thanks.

    If we fail to get 3 points against charlton tomorrow

    As someone just said, Charlton simply don't have the players to "really go for it". All things considered we'll likely park the bus and hope to nick one late on. Based on recent performances, it'll either end 3-0 or 0-1, with the former being far more likely (75%-25% I reckon). On a separate...

    Brighton's WORST PUB World Cup - nominations

    (1) Dick's Bar, Falmer. Went there once on a Tuesday afternoon. No ales on, overpriced and full of teens in tracksuits playing table football. (2) The Bat and Ball, Ditchling Road. Full of people weeing into their own shoes. (3) The Zone, St James's Street. Karaoke bail hostel.

    A sell out for Charlton?

    In the region of 500 unsold home seats looking at the tickets page - big bunch of 150 in South Stand Block F, then between 2 and 20 in each of the other blocks (everywhere except East Block E and West Middle has available seats). Charlton no longer posting tickets out, but presumably folk can...

    A sell out for Charlton?

    Have spent a couple of days toying with whether to go home or away end. Prospect of more room in the latter (with our shocking away following) v better view/options in the former. Was gonna go away as only corners of North and East Upper had been showing as available, then suddenly today every...

    The Kits World Cup - Group A

    I like the idea that MIT (top US techie college in Boston) were involved with Mexico's home shirt. Might explain the lightning motif I guess.

    Mammon...the latest Nordic series

    I used to watch the cartoon version of that in the 80s. Mammonpapa, Mammonmama and co. I assume the new version is a bit more gritty?

    Why do a lot of games in North Derbyshire / South Yorkshire kick off early tomorrow ?

    Similarly, Brighton had/has a North Laine, West Laine and East Laine, but no South Laine, although the answer in this case is pretty obvious - the big blue thing made of water is in the way.

    Fake £1 coins

    I reckon it's much higher than the 1-in-33 is a fake claimed by the Royal Mint. Every time I use a Coinstar machine, roughly 10% of my pound coins get rejected, and the ones it spits out do look/feel wrong in retrospect. Shops will happily take them, even the self-service checkouts often do...

    Can anyone hear a Chinook flying over Brighton?

    No. All I can hear is the Juice FM news, currently doing a story about a bloke with a hedge trimmer rumoured to be on his way to kill the most boring person in B&H. So nothing related to your question. Sorry.

    Franz Ferdinand

    Was drinking in a pub by the Dome and a fair few people came in having walked out of the FF gig as the band "weren't heavy enough". It was a very papered crowd by all accounts. Heard of them, but not heard anything by them, and wasn't at the gig myself so can't comment personally - and there...

    Obika Signs for Charlton

    Happy with this signing. We had him for the last three months of last season, and the vast majority of Charlton fans have been hoping to get him back ever since. He had been linked a few times and we were gutted when he went to you instead. (Rumours are we would have got him on loan months ago...

    Chris Powell

    Meh. I love Chrissy Powell as a person, but we are bottom for a reason. This was always gonna happen. Duchalet asset-stripped Standard Liege initially and there were riots, now they are doing well and everyone loves him. The CP love-in at Charlton needed to be broken. I've pretty much given up...

    o/t Superdry shoppers research

    Isn't it famously just a brand for bellends, like Jack Willis or whatever. Generic sweatshop clothes with a high price tag aimed at sheep-brained chavs who have to wear the same brand as other sheep-brained chavs, as the alternative to that would be individual thought, which is something people...

    NSC myths

    Harvey's Sussex Best tastes nice (rather than like a bucket of Ouse water and cat sick strained through a bonfire cultist's charred November 6th underpants).

    EDL to march again

    They used to pretend these annual events were a 'family march' to celebrate St George's Day. This year they're using a "Smash The Reds" tagline, so they're not even pretending they're here for anything but a punch-up with 'lefties' (which in their twisted view is pretty much the whole population...

    Do you believe in man made climate change?

    Am I missing something here? I live in Brighton and this is the mildest winter I've known (in my 20+ years here). Or is that what people are concerned about?
