    38 Years Ago - Our Previous Division 1 Debut

    I was at Wembley stadium that day, to see The Who, plus the Stranglers, AC-DC and Nils Lofgren. I think it was Hugh Cornwall that announced the result of our game to the crowd - I thought he was joking.

    Manchester City's most famous supporter....

    As usual, absolutely no idea who that is. New season, same old, some old.

    Somebody pinch me

    er ... what's occurring ? The EFL kicked off and we didn't have a game - must be something awry here.

    Overall mood before the big kick off...

    Mood ? Not too bad thanks, certainly not got a bad temper on. Am a bit tired and a little peckish, but overall not too bad for a Monday. Thank you for asking, it's nice to know somebody is concerned about me.

    ** BHA v Manchester City ** - PREMIERSHIP SCORE PREDICTOR - Now in its 7th SEASON !!

    Have opted for a 1-3. To open up against one of the top guys I think will be just beyond us. Still, it gets them out of the way. If we can get something from it, it could be huge going into the following few games.

    You know you're in the Premier League when......

    I suspect this may continue to happen for a while. Maybe once we're top of the Prem, people might twig.

    Farmers Lancing

    I was working at Singer Link Miles between '83 and '88 and had lunch there most days before a late shift. Seems like a long time ago .... well, it is.

    Farmers Lancing

    When I worked on the industrial estate I used to quite enjoy going to the Farmers for lunch every day. That was 30 years ago, though, it may have changed a little !

    The Times Today: 2+ pages on the Albion's story!

    I do find it a little sad that the best flooring expert in the county is only allowed £3.40 pocket money for lunch from his wife

    Hywel Bennett RIP

    I used to love Shelley. Wouldn't want to watch it again now, is probably very dated, and maybe not funny.

    Health checks

    Well, despite the above, I'm not unhappy at all. Being a frequent visitor to the hospital I see some people much worse off than me. I may be forced to be at home a lot, but it turns out I love being at home with my cats most of the day .. after 25 years commuting to London, who knew it was so...

    Never say "Never"

    In a similar vein, it annoys me when a commentator says something like "that score will NEVER be beaten" .. . how do you know ? Never is a very long time

    Leeds Chairman

    The Brighton model is to hire Samii Hypia, surely.

    Health checks

    Yeah, the last 3 years could have been better. Bowel cancer then kidney failure was inconvenient. Dialysis is not too bad, though, can't really work due to the time it takes, but I dialyse at home which is good. I did almost lose a hand in March, due to infection. My next op is Sep 1st, if it...

    Will Trump have to go before his term ends - and if so how?

    I thought he had the lowest popularity rating ever. He's probably still popular with the people who voted for him. I don't know why he took on the media and made them an enemy, that's not really a fight you can win - they always have the last say.

    Money laundering in football

    Without doubt the sport is not "clean" - given the sums involved it attracts that sort of person trying to milk the system for quick bucks

    Will Trump have to go before his term ends - and if so how?

    Could be gone within the year, but I don't know the mechanism of his removal. It's a car crash, but fascinating to watch. I am astounded at the incompetence of the most powerful man in the world, someone who builds his career on hiring people who seems unable to hire anyone to do a decent job...

    Health checks

    Blood tests every month, ECG every couple of months, see consultant every 8 weeks, blood pressure and weight tested twice a day... Oh, plus kidney dialysis 5 times a week. Probably other stuff that escapes me at the mo

    North Korea at it again!

    I think he's capable of "shoot first, sort it out later", worryingly. One would hope China were able to reign NK in, but I'm not overly confident of that, especially once they become a nuclear force, which looks increasingly likely. It could all be bluster by NK, of course, with much less viable...

    North Korea at it again!

    If NK get anywhere close to threatening the US, Trump will nuke them - I don't think he'd have any issue making that decision. Of course, once he's killed 100s of thousands, he'll claim it's "fake news"
