I got your point, and I don't disagree. Mine is from disputing an original point made a few posts ago where the poster said the pitch invasions were 'harmless fun'. Some were; others really weren't.

I appreciate they're impossible to stop given the circumstances, but a polite request (for that's what this is) is entirely appropriate. Other pitch invasions which spring to mind which weren't fun - Tottenham (late 1970s) Chelsea (1983) I've been given access to the Argus archive for a...

Good for you. Other people have different memories. Yes. And...? Not if there's a pitch invasion they won't.

When

Your memory of salad days is playing tricks on you. Pitch invasions occasionally led to fights and scuffles, (or at least lots of fat blokes with curtains shouting 'come on then', and dancing around like Bambi before running away) - see the Argus archives for such incidents. Of course, we're not...

Pitiful response. My post was about silly people who think they're the only ones who matter, with no mention of myself. And yours is a meaningless one about me. Outstanding.

So the club doesn't want it, the ground staff don't want it, the police don't want it, and most importantly the players don't want it - but a few self-important fans whose excess sense of entitlement trumps everything are grizzling...? Talk about selling your soul in return for a season-long...

Boil away squire, cos I suspect you're on your own on this one. For Huddersfield to overtake us on goal difference, it would have to render their - and our - results as little short of bent.

Bearing in mind we missed out by two goals last season, it's reasonably impressive we nearly made up an 11-goal deficit in four games on Boro.

Episode nine of Move On Up is up as a podcast on Mixcloud - www.mixcloud.com/largeal The Who, The Small Faces, Otis Redding, Jackie Wilson, Jimmy Cliff, Nine Below Zero and much more...

This week's show with Marcus Hancocks as guest is up as a podcast. Three matches, nine points, and we remember Paul Whelch.

Meaning six of Newcastle's nine defeats have been against three teams. In other words, like us, Newcastle have lost to just six different teams.

Or - to be people who show a disdain for the game - fooTball (heavy emphasis on the 'T').

It's a bit disconcerting to see a headline of "Tributes pour in as selfless Albion fan dies at 57", followed by a picture prominently featuring oneself.

On the day the Amex Stadium opened, and Radio Reverb allowed us to have the 'Breakfast' slot on the Saturday morning from 8am-10am. Paul Whelch was our first guest on that day, and he covered the early parts of the 'War Years' story. You can hear his enthusiasm and tenacity coming through that...

What - sexism or quizzes?

i knew he did a lot of work - but I didn't realise he got through all that. Astonishing effort.

We are very sad to hear of the death this evening of Albion fan and legendary campaigner Paul Whelch. Paul was twice a guest on The Albion Roar - most notably in 2011 on the day the Amex opened. He was one of the 'three Pauls' (along with Paul Samrah and Paul Bracchi) who initially uncovered...

This week's show with guest 'Sneaky' George Parris is up as a podcast on iTunes and at www.albionroar.co.uk Racism, gambling, women's football - and THAT goal.
