    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Harsh on Moder. Lallana held in reserve

    [Albion] ST renewals - how are they going?

    Ditto here (registered interest some months ago) I assumed they were waiting for the end of the renewal period so they knew how many available

    [Travel] Holiday plans this summer?

    Oh crikey. I'm early not after certainty but if all that is going to be announced in May is 'green' countries and then next review is June, then I'll bail out now.

    [Travel] Holiday plans this summer?

    Thanks for those 2 replies. Amber is 'fine' by us but red would kill it. Owner of property where we are staying (reasonably) doesn't want to delay final payment date any longer as i guess it means he misses the opportunity for letting it to a French national or other European. The sensible...

    [Travel] Holiday plans this summer?

    Question for Kinky Gerbils (and anyone else working in the travel biz) On the basis that everyone is sweating on the Gov't announcement of countries in Green/Amber/Red is there any indication of when the announcement is expected? 'Early May' is all I know Even more helpful would be the...

    [Football] Devil's advocate thread - what would be good about the mooted pirate league?

    1. The big boys f**k off and take their TV money with them. 5 or 6 FC New Team's are created and join the bottom of the pyramid. Clubs need to survive on gate money, merchandising and some TV. Player wages reduce to sensible levels allowing the best of them to buy a pub when they hang up their...

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    How about 'we're extremely concerned about the rapid rise in cases in India and we're unsure how our vaccines will deal with the new variant we are seeing and so we are immediately putting India into the red category until we know more' Nah, that would inconvenience people and Boris is going...

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    There's a politician for you ... so poorly dodging the issue. "I am told" = nothing to do with me "fairly small" = what's your issue? "no evidence at moment" = no detailed testing yet, so we'll make an assumption in the meantime "it will be studied" = once it's overwhelming us

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    Over 200K cases a day India should have been put on red list weeks ago. My S-i-L is on track and trace and spends every day contacting people coming off of flights from India (she works off flight numbers and passenger itinery) and she says the vast majority either say they don't understand or...

    Podcasts - what are you listening to?

    I've just discovered undr the cosh and have listened to the last two episodes, Danny Mills and Liam Dickenson. Both very funny and will definitely be listening weekly from now on. Highly recommended, down to earth and football without the crap veneer

    [Albion] So Webster is fit , Who misses out ?

    It's the most logical option. I think Gross will interchange with Lallana who I assume will get crocked and/or benefit from not playing 90 min's of every game

    [Football] Striker

    Whoever we go for it'll be a punt. Strikers of pedigree simply won't come to us no matter how much (realistic) money is on offer. So it'll most likely be an under the radar 'talent' who most of us would never have heard of from just about anywhere else in the world

    [Albion] Who is going down with Sheffield Utd?

    I can't see Fulham getting the 3 wins they need but (a little) concerned about WBA. Really need a stuttering Leics to put them back in their box

    [Football] Season ticket sharing

    I propose someone (not me) starts a thread where we can all add our info and then hopefully a quick cut/paste job and we're done. If questioned at the gate we can say we met up at a curry night X

    [Albion] 33 after 31

    Given that there are a perma 8 teams in the top 10 I'm not sure there's such a thing as established top 10. Way I see it each season starts with those 8 aiming for top 4 or top 1 and the other 12 wanting to put relegation fears behind them as quickly as possible. Each season 1 or 2 teams...

    [Football] Bernado to Salzburg

    Agree. He actually looked decent last night (not sure where he was for their goal though) but any other time I've watched him this season he's been far from impressivel

    BBC iPlayer Recommendations?

    I thought it started OK and then deteriorated as it went on. Not sure why I bothered finishing it and wish I hadn't. But scored well on imdb so guess I'm in a minority
