This, plus the £300 raised by the NSK for AlbionIn TheCommunity has turned a memorable night into a truly legendary...

    Interview with Bruno in Catalan newspaper

    Not sure why you should be. Bruno is right, Spanish football is technically and tactically superior. English football, while having a certain amount of those, is more concerned with the physical. Not exclusively, of course, just... more so. However, the technical aspects of those managers you...

    Interview with Bruno in Catalan newspaper

    The translation itself isn't great so misinterpretation is probable. What he is saying is that Brighton - the local team - is everyone's first team. That's quite often not the case in Spain (Real Madrid or Barcelona THEN the local team over there is quite common), and he's highlighting the...

    FA to trial Sin bins next season

    I don't believe that the same punishment should be handed out for unsporting behaviour as for more physical behaviour. However, my original point stands that I don't believe that sin bins would alter any given player's behaviour, especially when knowing that they're coming back on. Therefore...

    FA to trial Sin bins next season

    What's a 'soft' yellow card? An incorrectly given one? Or does the second yellow have to have a higher level of brutality / culpability than the first?

    John Lewis coming to the old Boots store at Clock Tower.

    What do you mean? If the Churchill Square expansion goes ahead, they're looking to move into there.

    FA to trial Sin bins next season

    MORE comparable - yes. But enough to make it comparable enough? Nah. The two main differences - tactically - are (a) there are no offsides in hockey and (b) there are rolling substitutes. And hockey is MUCH faster. You can get the ball from one end of the pitch to someone (legally) hanging...

    FA to trial Sin bins next season

    Bad idea. Managers would merely by extra cautious for 10 minutes to alleviate the problem, ending the game as a spectacle. Moving the ball forwards 10 yards (like in rugby) made little difference. The constant comparing of football to rugby leaves me banging my head on the table. They are...

    EFL show their spineless selves in relation to Blackpool v Orient on Saturday

    A reduction of 700 tickets. What are they hoping to achieve by doing that?

    Sulley Muntari

    Muntari banned for one game. Good to see the FIGC have got a firm hold on this problem.

    ... it's REMF Challenge Match time. This year, we return to the Dripping Pan, Lewes for our annual challenge match of Brighton Supporters v Crystal Palace Supporters for the prestigious REMF Challenge Cup. Palace are the current holders, winning 3-2 at the Amex last year, with Andy Johnson...

    BHA Powerchair team finishes 3rd

    A higher rank team pulled out with 12 days' notice, so the EPFA invited the Brighton & Hove Albion PFC team to go.

    BHA Powerchair team finishes 3rd

    To clarify, England is given three CL places - top two plus the cup winners. However, Aspire PFC finished above BHAPFC, so if they beat Aston Villa PFC the Cup Final next week, Brighton will get that final CL spot. And Aspire are expected to win.

    A belated thanks to everyone who came along to 'Build A Bonfire' at Komedia last night. Thanks to Komedia themselves for hosting the night - especially Annie North, Dave Blake and all the technicians and staff. Plus the NSK / Michael Costin who decorated the room quite handsomely. Thanks to...
