    [Football] Trials to shorten football matches to 60 minutes with ball-in-play time keeping

    If a given team is playing well and has the momentum with them, then with a stop-start clock, there is no obligation nor desire for the opposition keeper to put the ball back into play within any timeframe except his own. See also 'fake/tactical injuries'.

    Jeez - we must be very close together.

    [Football] Well done Andrew Whing and Banbury Utd

    19 points clear with four games to go. Pissed it. Even Nigel Adkins would struggle to keep up. Should be an Albion-related double as - in the same tier - Worthing go for the title, also managed by an ex Albion player, Adam Hinshelwood.

    [Brighton] Brighton & hove busses.

    I agree there is probably a need for an east-west service that avoids the city centre. The Old Shoreham Road is under-utilised, but is a hot potato - transport policy-wise at present. So the bypass it is. As for cutting back on HMOs, the council is aware of the shortage of designated student...

    [Brighton] Brighton & hove busses.

    All fair points. And if there is a call for it, I am sure B&H Buses would oblige.

    My app always crashes, so it doesn't even get that far.

    [Brighton] Brighton & hove busses.

    Is there the call for it though, for students, I mean? If there were a community of student accommodation based in Hangleton, it would be worth it. Like it or lump it, Brighton & Hove Buses are there to make money, especially for the parts of the Go Ahead group operating in towns where the bus...

    [News] Madonna - the greatest?

    It may be 'cool' to pretend, but what if you can't stand that tone-deaf, caterwauling, white noise-polluting, ear-rupturing harridan for real? It's often sad when someone well-known dies, but I don't think 'we are all in agreement' with you. When it comes to performers, there's the dog that...

    [Albion] Albion v Northampton 30th September 1967

    This was Northampton Town on their crashing descent. In 1961, they were in the Fourth Division. By 1965, there were in the top division. By 1969, they were back in the Fourth.

    [Brighton] Brighton & hove busses.

    It appears it's all ring-fenced by an 'Enhanced Partnership' between the LTA (the council) and the bus companies. Each LTA had to make a pitch to how they though they could improve their systems, and bid for funding accordingly. Those with the appropriate plans got their money from central...

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    That may well be the case, but Falmer Parish Council aren't the planning authority. Lewes District Council are (this one doesn't even fall into the South Down National Park for their approval). You're right about him not having put in a planning application yet though. His prerogative, mind.

    Lancing was our third choice, but we knew it as a Plan Z as the fella we dealt with there used to be the fella we dealt with a Lewes, so we didn't exactly have to sell the idea to him.

    [Football] REMF 2022 second leg - 7:45pm Fri. 27th May @ Lancing

    They were happy for us to use the plastic pitches to play the game, but that was an utterly pointless gesture. They instead wanted to focus their myriad teams in using the main pitch / stadium. Hence we were turned down. This was in 2019, and not something we mentioned.
