    [Albion] "You're black and you stink" Rodriquez comment to Bong? - FA say not proven

    Yep. And this would then be used by some as proof that black players can't control their emotions, can't be trusted, are inherently violent, not leadership material etc etc.

    [Albion] "You're black and you stink" Rodriquez comment to Bong? - FA say not proven

    I thought this article provided an interesting perspective into accusations of racism from opposition players, how they are dealt with and how they affect the accuser. [Trigger warning: it's from the Guardian]. It's directly about Glen Kamara at Slavia Prague but is equally applicable to the...

    [Albion] How good are we really ?

    How is that differing - that is the exact point that the OP made - no problem with supply, plenty of problems with finishing?

    [Football] 22 WSL games to be shown live on BBC TV from next season

    I don't think you understand how it works. I was off sick for a couple of days last week and so was forced to watch daytime TV. I've just bought a house at auction and am expecting Dion Dublin to show up any minute.

    [Help] Advice from an electrician please

    OK so your'e leaving the switch on the wall? I thought you were taking the switch off and filling in the hole which would leave the live feed to the switch inside the wall with no sign that it is there. If the switch (or a blanking plate) stays, then that's different

    [Football] Maheta Molango set to Replace Gordon Taylor at PFA

    Why is it absurd? I can see that the initial reaction - due to Molango's relationship with the Albion - might be that someone is pulling our collective leg, but you claim to have reflected on the appointment and still find it absurd, that is to say stupid, illogical, laughable etc. Why?

    [Help] Advice from an electrician please

    I'm not an electrician either but that sounds as if you will still have a live wire in the wall with no indication at all that it is there which could be very bad news for someone in the future. Yes, people should use a stud finder before drilling, but if there are no switches or sockets to...

    [Brighton] Cryptic Crossword Clue

    I'm happy with one or the other - obscure words with gettable clues or mind-bending clues with more straightforward words. Where you have both incredibly unusual words and very difficult wordplay, I think that's unfair and no fun.

    [Brighton] Cryptic Crossword Clue

    The letters from Nugent and gig are mixed up (sally meaning attack, a bit weak imo) and put around (cover) the first letter (header) of Messi ie m. So you have an anagram of nugentmgig = nutmegging = putting the ball between an opponents legs (uprights).

    [Humour] Joke du Jour.

    Sounds more like a bacterial infection or even some sort of parasite rather than fur replaced by grass. I'd get him to a vet.

    [Football] Who actually produces and publishes xG data?

    Yes, that's the whole point. A good example is penalties. A penalty in the Premier League has a standard xG because, on average, a certain number of penalties are scored. Some players are better at scoring from penalties, some goalkeepers are better at saving them but the xG is exactly the...

    [Football] Who actually produces and publishes xG data?

    The factors in bold are completely irrelevant (and a couple of others probably are as well). The skill or otherwise of the players is irrelevant to xG and to a large extent is what xG is trying to measure. The Xg for a chance that falls to a bad or tired player is exactly the same as that which...
