    [Albion] Assault in away end

    If the club can identify him, can they ban him for tomorrow's game, or do they have to wait for any legal action to play out?

    [Albion] Will the crowd be patient tomorrow?

    For me, the frustration wasn't us taking time, it was the insistence on repeating the same thing that didn't work over and over - ball straight up the middle to ferguson who then got outmuscled and us on the back foot. Especially since it's been two weeks, and we saw another team doing it. We...

    [Film] Film 2023

    Back from watching Saw X. Set sometime between Saw and Saw II, John Kramer goes to Mexico for experimental treatment on his brain cancer, only to discover it was a con. He decides to teach them a lesson in his own way. It felt like it was trying to address two of the criticisms of the sequels -...

    A Haunting in Venice I feel like I enjoy the Branagh Poirot movies more than I should. There's nothing particularly special, new or fresh about them, but I just enjoy them. It does stick out how much Poirot has changed from the almost militant 'justice must be served' character he is in Orient...

    [Albion] Premier League 30/9 - 3/10/23

    I understand that, I just find it odd that the VAR didn't see the spurs players in the Liverpool half and the ball being placed midway in Spurs own half for the restart and say "Hang on, why aren't they lining up for a kick off?!"

    Atwell is VAR. Madley is the ref.

    [Albion] Aston Villa vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I get that we will have a lot of games this season, with the addition of the europa league, and that players will need to be rotated to keep them fresh. Are we trying to be too clever and pre-emptive about it. Not just because of the disruptive nature of swapping half your team out every game...

    I don't see the contradiction. Yes, huff and puff. There's lots of playing it around, moving the midfield to create gaps. We have a lot of goals, but we've had to work a lot for most of them. Our opponents seem to just run straight through us.

    Imagine how bad it would be if Villa didn't have their wet shirts.

    Why are we so easy to score against? We huff and puff for every goal we get, yet our opponents just seem to stroll through.

    [Film] Film 2023

    A combination of a massive workload due to colleagues moving on/taking time off, and a bought of covid has led to me not getting to the cinema very much at all this month. Now things are easing off, I have had a couple of trips this week. On Monday I went to the the Duke of York's to see Pedro...

    [Food] Forget air fryers, who is into bbq/smoking?

    Especially with the Ninja woodfire electric BBQ and smoker!* https://ninjakitchen.co.uk/product/ninja-woodfire-electric-bbq-grill-smoker-og701uk-zidOG701UK (*I don't believe it actually acts as an airfryer as well).

    [Food] Air Frying, Do you?

    If you use those grease-proof paper liners, make sure to weigh down all the corners. Never put them in the air fryer during the empty warm up cycle. As others have noted, air fryers are essentialy convection ovens, meaning there is an air flow, and the paper can get lifted toward the heat source...

    It'll go to a penalty shoot out, and Sanchez will save every penalty he faces.

    [Albion] Our Luck

    It certainly felt to be like the ball bounced Bournemouth's way most of the time. But it's hard to tell if that was luck, or a lack of aggression in the challenge by us (so a little dink on the ball to steal it away wasn't enough to take it far enough away they can't just instantly regain...

    [Albion] Premier League 23-24/9/23

    Until I saw this post I thought Newcastle were pasting Brentford. It makes more sense now I realise how stupid I have been.
