    [Football] Ben White and our Gareth

    But doesn't essentially saying 'it's not me, it's his choice, he didn't even tell me himself' thow him under the bus, too? It has set the media and football fans in general on White - how dare he decline England, what a coward to get Edu to tell Southgate, in this thread people are calling for...

    [Film] Film 2024

    No, getting to and from an imax screen during the week is not particularly easy for me, and even at weekends would be an effort I'd need to really love the film for, and I remember a slight disappointment with part one's cut point, giving an unsatisfying feeling. I could do screen X at the...

    Kazenga LuaLua

    Remember at withdean someone rather loudly criticising us for taking a short corner because we never score from them, which lualua collected, then immediately ran into the box and scored from a tight angle.

    [Albion] Chelsea at home - kick-off time?

    I asked similar recently when the last lot of TV was announced. I was told it's FA cup semi final weekend, so if they get through, it would be postponed.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AS Roma *** Official Match Thread ***

    I feel like I am constantly saying something similar to friends at the game. We should target players on yellow cards but we haven't don't that in forever. I think Dan Harding in that game v Southampton was the last time it feels like we did that.

    [Albion] Was the Referee’s performance v Roma the best we have seen at The Amex?

    He may have a right to 'use his foot' but the law is clear; he doesn't have a right to do a scissor kick or bicycle kick when there is risk to an opponent (without any cavaet in the law about height etc). If he'd been facing the goal, had one foot on the ground and just lifted the other foot up...

    [Albion] Was the Referee’s performance v Roma the best we have seen at The Amex?

    Thanks. I think my hands were on their way to my head in despair so I didn't see if there was contact.

    [Albion] If RDZ plays Steele tomorrow...

    If he's tweeting that, doesn't his record suggest it's Steele in goal tonight?

    Card display? Might as well get the opera singer back. :tantrum:

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AS Roma *** Official Match Thread ***

    Alternating between acceptance we're going to get turned over again because too many people being too 'it's still possible!' and, myself thinking 'maybe we could...' We can't. We won't. just enjoy the last European game for a bit.

    [Albion] Premier League 13/3/24

    When Tom Lockyer was reported to be attending our game at Luton, I worried about the lift it would give them. His going to Bournemouth has been all over SSN. Had I been a betting man...

    [Albion] Champions League 23/24 Thread

    The IFAB law says: When the ball is kicked, the defending goalkeeper must have at least part of one foot touching, in line with, or behind, the goal line. I believe 'in line with' includes above the line, and his right foot appears to cover that from one replay just eyeballing it (he appeared...

    [Football] Surrounding Refs

    There was the standard jostling that you get at set pieces where everyone thinks they are a victim. Dunk ended up dropping to the ground and sitting in the middle of the goal, and some players "trying to get the ball" will have been obstructed by him. Looked to me like Moder was caught between...
