    [Albion] BHA v Everton - Premier League Score Predictor - Now in its 10th SEASON !!

    2-2 - a valuable point which I'll be happy with, and a point nearer safety (Everton are a decent team).

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    Snowing quite heavily here in Bath but not settling - was sat in the garden a week ago enjoying the warm sunshine :mad:.

    [Albion] Whatever happened to NorthStandPolls?

    Talking of other Albion fans' forums, what happened to B.O.M.B (Brighton Online Message Board) - I used to look at it occasionally years ago, but it only seemed to have about 10 regular posters (including someone whose username was 'Midland')? It was nowhere near as good as NSC, so I'm assuming...

    [Misc] Places in songs that you had a romantic view of before you saw the place in the flesh

    I've been 3 times, and the first 2 visits, I loved it, Greenwich Village especially; I thought I'd found my spiritual home! The 3rd time, though, about 5 years ago, it had changed. Hard to put my finger on how or why, but me and Mrs Peteinblack reckon that the artists, musicians and bohemian...

    [Misc] Places in songs that you had a romantic view of before you saw the place in the flesh

    All three sounded romantic or exotic - but in reality were horrible dumps which flattered to deceive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiB3tHLf0wk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfpyZKuI1GU

    [Misc] Inguinal Hernia

    Had hernia surgery last September (mesh implant). General anaesthetic was amazing; they put the mask over my face, and I thought they were going to say "Start counting backwards from 10", but next thing I knew, I was waking up an hour or so later, as if from a really good sleep; didn't feel...

    [Albion] ** BHA v Newcastle ** - Premier League Score Predictor - Now in its 10th SEASON !!

    1-1 - due to the fact that we struggle against other teams near the bottom of the table.

    [Albion] Trosdard's role today

    Saw this on MOTD - WTF is it about. How is him laying on the ground strengthening the defensive wall against a free-kick. I'm genuinely baffled.

    [Albion] Fallen out of love with The Albion

    I've certainly lost some of my love for the Albion this season, having supported them as a school-boy in the 1970s (was at the Wembley FA Cup Final in '83, and the Play-Off Final vs Bristol City at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in 2004. Our p***-poor strikers and lack of clinical finishing in...

    [Misc] Do you read?

    In recent years, I've read about 21-34 books each year. I like reading for an hour or so last thing at night, in the garden on a warm summer's day, or sat by the pool on holiday (I vaguely remember!). Goodreads is a great website for readers, and is free to join; you can keep a list of your...

    [Albion] Relegation Blame Game

    For me, much of the blame lies with our woeful strikers; consistently and disgracefully wasteful in the opponent's penalty area; so many spurned opportunities this season. In fact, describing Trossard and Connolly as no more than Championship-level would be flattering them.

    [Music] What is the best single record EVER? (Your choice not the critics ones)

    As 2 of my other faves have already been nabbed by NSCers with impeccable taste in music (The Clash's 'Complete Control' and 'White Man in Hammersmith Palais), I'll choose this :) If I'd been allowed another choice, it would have been Pulp's 'Common People'

    [Humour] Struggling for that 'special' birthday present ?

    A public-school educated City trader who's convinced millions of struggling working-class citizens that he's on their side against the Establishment. The Arfur Daley of British politics. Incidentally, in Malaysia, 'Faraj' is the word for the female genitalia :)

    [Albion] Inevitabilities

    I'm actually imagining that ditty written and sung to the tune of 'Star' (on the Ziggy Stardust album) :)
