    [Travel] Trains tonight

    I was fully expecting this as the first train to Brighton after the match only came after I had walked past the ambulance station on the way to Coldean Lane -remember thinking at the time that it would be so frustrating for those in the queue -and then it only had 4 coaches!

    [Help] Hernia surgery

    Echo this. I was expecting a recovery time like that of a hip replacement, but it was so much quicker. The day after my only concession to the op was to go down the stairs backwards to ward off discomfort, and after that was walking quite normally, getting quicker with every day. Still had some...

    [Albion] Seagull Special Train

    Yes, stuck for ages on the train!

    [Albion] Albion

    Yes, he should be and judging by the timescales put out by the club, the injury situation should hopefully have largely diminished. They did say for a few players that that it would be after the international break. Obviously, this is nothing other than an educated guess, but Estupinan should be...

    Well said. Absolutely correct.

    [Misc] Official NSC Dog Bore Thread

    Yes, fully echo this. we have a 2 year old lab and she is fabulous company, as was our old lab, whom we lost some time ago. Wonderful memories.

    [News] Middle East conflict

    I see what you are saying, of course, and yes, it does seem incredulous, but never forget that the mindset of fundamentalist muslim organisations such as Hamas is very different to our way of thinking. If I may give you an example; my mate was posted to Bosnia after the war as part of the peace...

    [News] Middle East conflict

    Like most others, I assumed that it was a result of an air strike, given what has been happening. But then it all seems so convenient for Hamas. A hospital of all places, perhaps with inflated death toll figures, plus the fact that Biden is visiting today, and they hope he will now put pressure...

    Might it be because the border crossing remains closed?

    [News] Middle East conflict

    Whilst you are right in that Germany was on its knees by then, you glibly state that it was unnecessary. Dresden was and still is an important rail hub, used at the time for transporting what material they could muster to bolster resistance against the advancing Russians. We now have hindsight...

    [Misc] Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

    I had the operation which went well and have had no problems since- it does take a few weeks to get the hand properly working with full strength, but well worth it.

    [News] Middle East conflict

    We have to be consistent. In order for Nazism to be defeated -and seen by all to be defeated - The Allies insisted on unconditional surrender and the invasion plus bombing of Germany was deemed to be necessary, even though thousands of civilians, who may or may not have been innocent, died as a...

    [News] Middle East conflict

    Yes, as you say, that is certainly the risk. Perhaps the one glimmer of hope might be that other areas of the Middle East are rather more moderate and if the Israelis equally show willing, then there might at last be some sort of peace. If there is a bloodbath in the coming weeks, then it might...

    [News] Middle East conflict

    Yes, you are quite right -Hamas should be the target, and rightly so. But if the Israelis simply bomb a house or two, shoot off a couple of bullets, and say boo to appease the rest of the world, understandably desperate to avoid thousands of deaths, Hamas will not go away and we start all over...

    [News] Middle East conflict

    Yes, fully agree in that it has been going on for ages and both sides must share some of the blame for this. My brother was in the area for years and often said that the Israelis were quite vindictive towards the Palestinians, which doubtless goes some way to explaining their hatred of Israel...

    [Travel] PEOPLE FAKING DISABILITY/INJURY ON TRAIN RAMP

    Over the years we have noticed how some folk abuse the fast lane -it is sadly quite common to see one person who is seemingly disabled accompanied by several others, who are using the disability to push down the queue. As with folk parking on disabled spots, when not entitled, it is an...

    [Albion] Travel Information.....Rayo Vellecano

    If I park in Woodingdean, weather permitting, then where might I put the car and how long does it take to walk to the Amex from there. I am fit and walk regularly, so not a problem as such. Thanks for any advice.

    [Football] Luton or Coventry?

    Luton for two reasons, not that I am bothered about them as such. Luton is closer to us so I am thinking of the fans who go to away matches. Also, has Gyokeres not got a sell-on clause and might be tempted to jon a PL club if Coventry don't make it and I think I read that the Albion stand to...

    [Albion] Jakub Moder

    Yes, I too have noticed how it has gone quiet considering pictures of him training weeks ago. I would have expected him to be back by now in some capacity, so fear the worst, sadly.
