    [Albion] Fabricio Diaz

    These two might be the answer to the question "What do we do against sides who will exploit our lack of pace through the middle?"

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    Totally better for the new rules (not guidelines). As long as it is applied consistently. Super stringent in our game, I would guess less so in others?

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    Nothings perfect and human error is part of the game. Agreed. But showing down the game by kicking a ball away or throwing it away or standing in front of a free kick are unarguable and not open to interpretation. Nor is a player waving an imaginary yellow card. Booking Gross was the correct...

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    Exactly this. It was so noteworthy in what was not on the least bit a dirty game. That's why I'm asking. The measure of this won't take weeks to observe. Did every other player who wasted time get booked? I haven't seen the other games but I'll bet they didn't.

    [Albion] Better song for Mitoma - suggestion

    A little bit more about the song My Sharona (who was a real person): https://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-knack/my-sharona

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    Quite. But I can't believe that Pascal and Julio were the only two players to kick the ball away this weekend. Did all the others get booked? (I genuinely don't know and would be interested to hear if someone has looked into this).

    [Albion] Fabricio Diaz

    In the interests of player insight, I googled "Martina Diaz". You get some very curious results.
  8. Couldn't Be Hyypia

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    But that's foul play isn't it? That's been in the rules for ages. I'm interested in the time wasting yellows that were so vigorously issued in our game and whether they have been applied in other games.
  9. Couldn't Be Hyypia

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    I haven't seen any other games this weekend, but having seen us play, I have a sneaking suspicion that not all games will have been refed so vigorously. And it's probably not going to be a big club v little club bias as much as consistency across referees. Interested to hear what people have...

    [Football] Yellow card consistency

    I watched our game on Saturday and was struck, like most of us, by the yellow cards given for time wasting. Harsh, but "refs clamping down" and consistently applied to both sides. Ok. I'll accept that. And in a few months, all teams will be dealing with yellow card accumulation suspensions, but...

    [Albion] Garth Crooks (made-up) Team of the Week 2023/24

    Girth Crooks in disrespect shocker. If it's not Line-acre selling off Evan, it's Girth touting Mitoma. It's plain disrespectful. You can't criticise Brighton for "selling off the crown jewels, that will inevitably lead to a Southampton like relegation" and simultaneously be suggesting our...

    [Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**

    Not if we're bringing in more, similar players who are already more experienced. Far better that he is developing whilst playing than not getting game time.

    [Albion] Carlos Baleba SINGS a 5-year deal

    That's how I saw him from the clips. Very reminiscent, even the occasional long range slap at goal.

    [TV] Netflix - What's good to watch?

    Another good one (again not to watch with the kids) is Easy. Very enjoyable, funny, reflective but a lot of boobs and bottoms.

    [Albion] Fabricio Diaz

    Kozlowski is still only 19. I thought he'd be older than that - seems to have been loaned out for a few seasons already.
  17. Couldn't Be Hyypia

    [Albion] Kaoru Mitoma to a top 4 club - would it be a big move any more?

    Well, whilst I agree with you, the comment I referenced was in The Times, not on the internet.
  18. Couldn't Be Hyypia

    [Albion] Fabricio Diaz

    So he would be the Caicedo replacement? (although not playing in precisely the same way of course)
