    [Football] Home & Away shirts for the season

    For me Best (H) Villa Best (A) n/a Worst (H) Watford Worst (A) Man U There is one stand out away kit but I would be flamed if I put it in writing.

    [Albion] Percy off.

    I thought he was bought for £3 million and being sold for £1.5 million, hardly a massive profit. In the scheme of things, hardly a massive loss either. Some transfers work out, some don't. If he was good enough, he would have played.

    [Football] 5/1 for Southampton to be relegated - value?

    I can't see them selling JWP this summer. Didn't Villa offer £25 million, he's worth a lot more than that.

    [NSC] Does he mean us?

    I just lost half an hour in the worm hole of North Stand Banter. Brilliantly funny and depressing at the same time.

    [NSC] Striker?

    He's only 32 and would be great. I can't believe that he would get anywhere close to his reported £200k a week wages in Brazil so wages could have been negotiated. I don't follow Spanish football, not sure why he hasn't played that much in the last four seasons. He could also rival Dunk for...

    [Football] The Men Who Sell Football

    Interesting watch. Difficult to know if the people in it are Walter Mitty types or genuinely involved. It also shows how hard it is for football authorities to regulate ownership when the ownership can legally be hidden.

    [Misc] Things You Wished You'd Done Years Ago

    Running, wish I had started earlier in life rather than waiting until my late 30s. Stretching, wish I had started stretching earlier in life rather than waiting until late 40s, by which time a lot of the damage was done.

    [Albion] What’s more likely: Top 10 or relegation?

    Top 10 is more likely but both are unlikely as things stand.

    [Football] Messi leaving Barca - PSG 2 years at €35m net per season

    Fulham. Could have helped to get them promoted and then get them back into Europe. See how good he really is, playing against Millwall on a Tuesday evening.

    [Football] BBC Predict the PL Table

    It could still be a relegation battle for most of the season and then picking up points in April & May.

    [Albion] Season Previews Thread 21/22

    Fans from Norwich, Watford and Brentford all predict 17th.

    [Football] 9 substitutes on the bench this season in PL

    Not keen. Can only benefit the more wealthy teams with deeper squads.

    [Albion] We should sign Adam Armstong

    I think he's good enough for 10 goals a season, excluding penalties. I hope I'm wrong as I have just predicted Southampton to be relegated!

    [Football] HM Revenue & Customs investigates players, clubs & agents over tax

    That's good news. The players, agents and clubs who did anything wrong should be named and shamed to hopefully prevent it happening in the future.

    [Other Sport] Olympic squads - value for money ?

    There is no doubt that GB Rowing will need to be asking questions of itself and will need to get by in the next three years with less money than they are used to. Rowing's loss will mean a gain in income for British Swimming, Taekwondo and BMX Cycling. Just like Everton spending millions on...

    [Football] Grealish to City

    I'm amazed that the likes of City and United can afford these big transfer fees after the £3.6m fine they had to fork out.

    [Other Sport] Olympics viewing strategy

    I thought France were favourites? If all are fully recovered from the individual events we should be with a shout for a medal, fingers crossed it will be gold.

    [Other Sport] Olympics viewing strategy

    No funding issues, rowing got some of the highest lottery funding as we traditionally have been so good at it. Very little group rowing done during the pandemic, most rowers having to spend time on an Ergo at home. Same for most countries but not all. It could be as simple as Jürgen Gröbler...
