That made me so angry. I spent a bit getting a couple of memorial trees planted, I was worried for quite a while that some dick would snap them in 2 one evening, they are probably big enough now for that not to be so much of a risk. In the same day’s news, we are losing 100-200 Ash trees in...

In saying that, I have often found that when we advertised two tickets together only one of them sold leaving another single ticket that no one will buy. I have never understood why you can’t say that you want the tickets to only be sold as a pair.

For those of you who have never been to the Black Country, a visit to the Black Country museum showing how it all looked in yesteryear, and where they filmed some of Peaky Blinders, is highly recommended. However if you don’t have time, and just want a similar experience, a walk round the...

25 years ago today, an edgy 1-0 win against Wigan:

It makes little difference on a match day - the post that says no goals and no shots on target for Albion timed at just after the kick off actually still applies two hours later.

Around the time he signed for Burnley, I remember seeing him sat in Hove Park on the grass with his dog staring into the abyss probably thinking ‘next stop Burnley’. I was going to say hello but he had the look of someone who just wanted to be left alone, not of someone who had just secured a...

A bit early I know but I noticed that for the Oval test match against South Africa starting Thursday, September 8 there are now a few hundred seats available in block 8 and blocks 14-17 for each day, including the days that were previously shown as sold out. Here’s the link in case anyone is...

Is that a bottle top you were trying to smuggle in?

I have friends in Suffolk, one supports Albion and the other Norwich. Neither can face coming on Saturday! :facepalm:

Most Everton and Leicester fans would agree.

The Penguin kit. Carlisle had a similar one in the early 70s with a red stripe inserted in there.

After a bit of research, it seems this was my first ever game. I was only 6 and remember going to this one and the Rochdale game that season, plus the Geoff Sidebottom testimonial a few weeks later. I went with my Dad and Grandfather, who unfortunately was a staunch Villa supporter. 50 years...

Only once did I ever collect autographs at the Goldstone and it was for Brighton v Norwich in the late 70s, we lost 4-2. Those autographs must be worth a fortune now, I will bring them along to an Antiques Roadshow one day and get them valued.

I doubt he played the schoolboy international, but he did make his full debut against the Netherlands in 1977 when we chased shadows for 90 minutes.

That’s a better offer than I expected to get!!

Two Norwich tickets and parking for sale - offers invited :lol:

Same for me. Next time I went was 1983.

I am trying to remember that far back, but don’t we have to score to be able to win? And, own goals aside, don’t we have to shoot to score? And don’t those shots, or at least one of them, have to be on target? On the plus side we will definitely boss possession.
