    [Albion] Simon Jordan's book

    A lorry load of salt, I think the issue was that the 4 palace fans that bought Palace had looked on in horror at the way SJ was ducking and diving borrowing of peter to pay Paul, and although SJ had asked they were not interested in working with him. So they waited as long as they could and...

    [Misc] Exercise bikes

    IMHO dont bother with stationary exercise bikes. I had a Total R/H replacement and bought a stationary bike but it just bored me to death and ended up being a coat hanger until it was given away. Then got myself an Electric bike so not too much strain going up the hills of Sussex but no...

    [Albion] VAR red card

    When playing as a striker we were always told to “Play off the shoulder of the last man” with this VAR shit there would have been a toe or finger many times offside... it truly is ruining the game.

    [Albion] Should we have had a penalty?

    Not really it takes into my account of spending many many years Refereeing in the Sussex county league and such like, and watching football. Firstly look at the players reactions not just the player fouled but the player adjudged to have fouled....Now I am aware that Pro footballs are great...

    [Albion] Should we have had a penalty?

    I was at that end and saw it all in real time close up. My lad "Thats a pen dad, a deffo pen" Me " No its not lad look at the players reactions, not one real appeal" So two different opinions on the real time close up action. Now I have seen it half a dozen times on many angles, maybe it was...

    [Albion] If not the M23 Derby, what?

    What I meant was no one cares about why it started, it’s now just another game with a bit more on it than most.

    [Albion] If not the M23 Derby, what?

    Pantomime Derby started by two managers who hated each other before either were with palace or Brighton. Just an excuse for the boot boys in the 70s for a good ol fashion tear up.... carried on today but know one under 45 really cares TBH

    [Albion] Premier League 3-5/12 [Merged]

    I think it was about changing times of games to suit scheduling, and for me the whole moving games is an irritation. When the club send me the fixture list in July I just throw in the bin as it’s all but meaningless. if my party of 8 only 2 of us got there on time with another 2 getting there...

    [TV] BBC Meat - A threat to our planet?

    Myself and Mrs Loz decided a couple of years ago to treat meat as an expensive treat, So we only buy organic meat from local producers. Luckily here where we live we have 3 very good organic farms. So we do eat meat but because its quite expensive probably only twice a week. But it gives us a...

    [Albion] Why is Dunk consistently overlooked by England?

    You keep saying his Palace but he was born in Watford and played more games for both Aston Villa and Boro...Palace fans never really regard him as "one of their own" As for Dunk, He is 28 this month, young for a center back , but it does seem that Southgate does go for younger players in general.

    [Albion] 30539?!

    I dont think anyone gets upset about it. Its another thing that has gone from the game I love (ed) As a kid scanning the paper looking at all the goal scores comparing crowd sizes and goal scorers (There was little else to do Sunday morning in the 70s !) TBH its the second thing I look...
