    [Albion] Could Igor play the holding midfielder role?

    I quite like the idea (again based on one game) but what was his interception rate (or whatever the statos call it) ? Basically that person needs to provide defensive cover by nicking the ball off the opposition. Caicedo was the best I have ever seen at this skill.

    [Albion] Pack your own box and counter attack quickly...

    Sometimes this will happen. Other times our passing will be a little more effective. We can stretch that packed defence with quicker passing to the wide areas. TBF this was happening last night and would have been praised had we not conceded a couple of soft goals. I think with post match...

    [Football] Was there an England game at the Goldstone in the '90s?

    I was there (the B game). Eclectic mix of fans in the North Stand.

    [Albion] Didn't feel right.

    You like familiar adverts ? Need to add ‘losing’ to your list….for the moment anyway.

    How do you pronounce SCONE?

    There’s a north/south thing going on here and for a change the northerners are on the posh side. Rhymes with gone for me. If I were posher or a northerner then the other option.

    [Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

    I thought it was a decent full debut. He was involved and constantly available for a pass.

    [Albion] Very disrespectful heading in The Grauniad

    Poor fella was only doing his job with a smile on his face. What’s wrong with the headline ?

    [Misc] Names which change

    Yeah, I winced every time they said it. A bit too ‘David’ for my liking.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AEK Athens *** Official Match Thread ***

    Too much doom and gloom. Good possession and crisp passing. We had the chances to win it and were the better team. We won’t win every game.

    [Football] The standard of Europa League refs

    Nope, can’t be true. I’ve been told on here that European refs are wonderful.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AEK Athens *** Official Match Thread ***

    That looks decent. Cod, chips and mushy peas at Athens away presumably.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AEK Athens *** Official Match Thread ***

    The fella who handed over our Greek takeaway is an Okympiakos fan. Says we will batter them tonight.

    [Albion] Excited?

    Yep. Home from work around 4.30. Collect takeaway from our local Greek restaurant around 6.45. I will probably go for the platter in honour of the occasion, even though it is almost impossible to eat it all. Then settle down to watch the match on tv.

    He is confusing our actual support, drawn from all over Sussex and beyond with a few posters on NSC. I think he is comparing this with Athens because he hasn’t been there.

    [Albion] Marseille

    Ok, lots of supposition in there but the actual travel advice from the club says: ‘ Carry photo ID (passport) at all times in the city.’ Lots of people will be reading this thread for information and will not share your desire for arguments with petty officialdom.

    No way will they be allowed in with unfashionable jeans.

    [Football] Should the 3pm Saturday blackout of televised football stay in place?

    Personally I think it unnecessary these days. The argument in favour centers around lower league attendances. If someone is motivated enough to watch their local non Prem team though then I hardly think a televised game would put them off.

    [Albion] New EPL TV deal - 6.30pm Sunday games - we need to stop this

    As others have said some people will like it and others not. Depends upon your personal circumstances. The angriest will be the ones who don’t like it. Perhaps it would be worth checking with all supporters before manning the barricades though…..
