    [Albion] Is tonight the 3rd biggest game in our clubs history after Hereford and the FA Cup Final?..

    No, it's a completely meaningless game. At least, we're playing like it is.

    Can we go for it against Forest? I mean, saving ourselves for the return leg is pointless. 'Focus on the premier league'

    [Football] The ticking Profit and Sustainability (FFP) timebomb...

    In the last premier league season, according to this https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/chelsea-premier-league-wage-bill-30054153 Leicester's wagebill was double ours. I'm under the impression relegation clauses for wages are quite rare. So I wouldn't be surprised if he is on more than...

    [Football] Fabrizio Romano

    Teams have to be logged with officials an hour before kick off. Managers will know their teams before this and will have told their players before this to train properly. I'm not saying you're wrong about his source of info, but Bonucci would have known he was going t be on the bench a while...

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

    As a game with two legs, my pessimism has extra downbeat expectations to play with. Even if I were to be confident of a good result here, I would still be thinking about the aggregate score with low expectations.

    We will need those players to be willing to sign for us, which is where our wage restrictions will put players off, especially those used to much higher wages at Chelsea.

    [Albion] Would you take a one goal defeat at Roma?

    Part of me thinks a 1 goal loss would be better than a 1-0 win. A team that approaches the second leg knowing they have to win come in hungry and put more effort. A team defending a lead will sit back, and then when they concede have to change their approach and struggle to take back momentum...

    They made the first one without confirming a second part (at least publicly) until after the last had been released. There was supposedly no guarantee that we would have got part two. I say this to set up this link, which is equally suggesting, there may not be a part 3...

    [Misc] HR / work question…

    Perhaps there is a concern that the person who has being doing it wrong has advised others about their easier/quicker way of doing things, and by sending to everyone it nips that in the bud.

    It is a website that allows someone to sell photos, videos, interactions, (or subscriptions for such) direct to the consumer. Its reputation is that it is mostly used by people selling adult content, though some are softcore boudoir type content, and it has permeated the public conscious enough...

    Turns out my antipathy toward moxley trumped any enjoyment of FTR. Barely any interest in the match. Storm/purrazzo My formative years as a wrestling fan was the Alundra Blayze/Bull Nakano era, so I do like to see women's wrestling as part of the show, but I prefer it to be women who can...

    Was planning to, but over the last week or two I've been making an effort to catch the main oscar nominees before this weekend's ceremony. May get to it next week, have to get started soon or else there'll be so many episodes I'll say I'll wait for the end of the season, but then it will go...

    Garcia/Christian Eh, fine. I can't really bother with Garcia. He looks like he has been invited to the party of a friend of a friend so he's gone in and is desperately looking around the party for someone familiar and is starting to worry he's at the wrong party. Bryan Danielson/Eddie Kingston...

    [Albion] De Zerbi: 'We deserved to lose...I understood the problem in January!"

    Wouldn't be the first time the fans misunderstood a manager. He could simply mean "I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses just because we lost today. I've mentioned in the past (i.e. when results were going well) that we needed further recruitments. But I understand the constraints the...

    Anyone watch Revolution last night? Am considering get the PPV after work, not a massive fan of AEW or their general style of wrestling, but Sting's last match, so am tempted.
