    [Drinking] The official Rome Aperol Spritz (and possibly Negroni) thread!!

    Yeah that can happen. A favourite restaurant in Florence used to do a 7 course special for €50 and throw in unlimited wine for free. I challenged them to revive it a couple of years ago, and got 7 main courses. Still €50 though.

    [Albion] Our dismal record away to Roma

    I remember it happening as a trial for the team, as they were likely to qualify for Europe that season. But the uber defensive style, which was working very well, was abandoned and we reverted to an attacking style and sunk like a stone as a result. Can’t read the article as it is riddled with...

    [Albion] Private Seated Rome Stadium Transfers

    I wonder if City Lights could assist us with printing of match tickets if we have problems?

    [Albion] Kaoru Mitoma [27/2/24 - possibly out for the rest of the season]

    Start to promote from the u21 set up. We may just find the next gem is ready and waiting.

    [Travel] Heads Up: Leonardo Express from airport to Rome Termini

    I was in hurry in Genoa one night, hoping between local stations, and thus offered up a sector of my railpass (I had ten sectors in total.) Guard comes along, takes my railpass, looks at it hands in back upstamped and told 'don't be silly' Nice guy.

    [Albion] How are you getting to Rome?

    Yup my Baku flight was £407.00, but as I went back to cancel it had timed me out.

    [Albion] Brighton v Roma

    Another absolutely brilliant draw. Huge club and a top City,

    [Albion] Ambitious summer Transfer Window.

    With our very smart recruitment into the u21 squad and loans out, I expect a number of players to effectively step up next year. I doubt if any other team has this level of depth outside the first team squad.

    [Albion] Europa League - Away game tickets.

    I Quite fancy flying to Faro for anything Lisbon based. Catch a bit of sun.

    [Football] Trains to Sheffield

    Hopefully, someone will pick them up again as I am moving to the Island next year. Assuming I can't buy a season ticket in the away end at Southampton.

    [Football] Trains to Sheffield

    Seagulls Travel as far as the Midlands, after that it is just too far for a day now. Rail up North is now just too expensive once we have had kick-off times confirmed, though Sheffield in the Cup went well, and was my first Albion Northern Trip by rail post covid. I understand there may be...

    [Albion] Say something nice about Palace

    Supporters are not exactly glory hunters.

    [Music] Top Bands who never had a hit song

    Right now any group featuring Michael Head. Wonderful singer songwriter from Liverpool. Currently performing as Michael Head and the Red Elastic Band. Also Manu Chao has never had a hit in this country, probably because he sings mostly in Spanish and French and does not tour here. Well worth a...

    [Albion] Palace or Chelsea - who do you hate more?

    To be fair our dear rivals are not exactly glory hunters. I used to have one as a tenant, he was on the police radar so when he didn't turn up at the plod to report on match day the meat wagon was dispatched to bring him in. Amusingly they had my address as landlord and we got raided instead...

    [Albion] We won't be qualifying for Europe again this season

    We gave up on that with our summer transfer dealings.

    [Albion] Positives from tonight (Luton)

    Cheer up. I saw them lose 5-0 there once.

    [Misc] What was your first pet's name?

    Boo Boo, Dog. I was five and so excited. He ate his own lead, and died in agony after three weeks. Had cats ever since.

    [Football] What Was The Worst Albion Performance You Have Ever Seen ?

    4-0 loss at Southend (excluding the Bristol Rovers farce.)

    [Albion] Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall **Singed for Chelsea 02/07/2024**

    A cup one day with a favourable draw, a full team, and the established order drawing each other in earlier rounds. Title not permitted I am afraid, we all saw what happened when we pushed for top 4.

    [Albion] Bring back the 80s and 90s please.

    Another thought on this was the character grounds back in the day, Saltergate, Gay Meadow, The Dell, Eastville, The Vetch, The Shay (Still with us) to name a few. Every trip was an adventure, especially without segregation. The cookie cutter new builds have no character at all.
