    [Brighton] Glyphosate weed killer could return to Brighton

    It certainly does - used it for years. It can be a good two or three weeks before you see anything happening but it totally kills anything it is sprayed on in my experience. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0857GJ68T?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

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

    Sorry if fixtures but haven't seen mentioned the fact that the P&S rules for Forest for the 22/23 period, in terms of allowable losses, is different than that for the teams that had been in the PL for three years.

    Make that £38.9m in 2916/17 and £25m in 2015/16

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

    That's precisely why the high revenue clubs have historically shown support for P&S rules. Stops the smaller clubs from threatening their position in the league. I doubt either of the Manchester clubs nor Liverpool, (clubs with 3 x the revenue of Brighton), will be voting for it's removal any...

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    I'm not really - it's more an interest in the practicality of how to implement an equitable loyalty scheme for all from a club perspective. From a fan perspective, points are "earned", (a better word may be accrued), by individuals. The club appears to link loyalty points to an account, (ST...

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    How does the club know who is going to be using the corporate ticket at the beginning of the season? It may be one individual or numerous different people

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    But if those points can't be used when buying an away ticket and/or can't have the points for the away game added to the tickets total then they are effectively useless. That would put the director in my example who uses one of the 1901 tickets to go to most home games at a serious disadvantage...

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    That doesn't answer the question - who gets the season ticket points? Each ticket in my example could potentially give someone up to 200 points at the beginning of the season - the club can't allocate them to a user if they are corporate ones, so who gets the points? If they are credited to...

    That's fine for the away game points but who gets the ST points?

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    I don't see how the club can remove this "loophole" without putting the holder of a corporate ticket at a disadvantage compared to an ordinary STH and allocate ST points retrospectively. Some have suggested that points be awarded to whoever is passed an away ticket but ignored the problem of...

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    As I posted earlier, this perk is an additional encouragement, to pay a premium and commit to a 5 year contract for those seats, that doesn't actually cost the club a penny to include.

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    Don't you see that this is the perfect reward scheme looked at from the club's perspective. It adds a perceived value to a corporate ticket without costing the club anything.

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    Why wouldn't I be? The club has gained far more from that ticket holder than they have from me irrespective of how many away games I've been to.

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    Don't see the problem myself. A lot depends on how you define loyalty. IMO it's a combination of financial and period of time. The club don't benefit financially from those going to away games and the players on the field have no way of differentiating between one fan who has been to every...

    [Misc] Global Warming

    So you do accept that reducing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere will help slow global warming. Doesn't really matter what is the cause or who is driving carbon reduction in that case.

    [Misc] Global Warming

    Is your argument that there is nothing we can do about the Earth warming up or that it isn't necessary to try. There certainly have been periods of climate change in the past, some of which have caused mass extinction of species. Irrespective of the cause reducing the amount of greenhouse...

    [Finance] Cash or card ?

    This is the bit I don't understand - with cash there is a finite supply, until the Bank of England prints more which can then alter the overseas value of the pound. With digital money what is the money supply. If I bank with a Spanish bank for instance whilst all the transactions may be...

    [Finance] Cash or card ?

    I'm no financial wizard so don't really understand how the value of cash is assessed other than by the level of confidence in the pound. However when I use a Bank of England note I do know it has a real value which is linked to a real institution. When I spend electronically then what is the...

    [Finance] Cash or card ?

    Direct bank fees and charges can be avoided but you are paying bank charges indirectly in the prices of the goods you buy.

    [Finance] Cash or card ?

    Have had need to use large amounts of both cash and card payments over the last 12 months. Credit cards I like for the protection and the free of interest period. Trying to withdraw large amounts of cash from the bank though can mean facing a full on interrogation. On one occasion it took...
