    [Albion] Enock Mwepu (Retired 10/10/2022)

    Yeah, Christian Eriksen has one of course, so he can keep playing. Guess not an option for Mwepu.

    [Albion] Enock Mwepu (Retired 10/10/2022)

    Serious question, does knowing about this help you and your family avoid further cardiac arrests? Not sure I'd want to know I had a ticking time bomb in my body, how do you guys cope with that?

    [Help] Country House Hotel recommendation?

    I stayed here this summer https://www.combehouse.co.uk/ - the Quantocks are absolutely stunning, this was a nice place nestled right in the heart.

    [Albion] De Zerbi Thoughts?

    I'm all for being able to play the ball out from the back, its a very important skill to have. To religiously do it in every single scenario, however, simply removes the element of surprise in the match. The opposition know what we're going to do, so they set up for it. Which makes it much...

    [Albion] Enock Mwepu (Retired 10/10/2022)

    Dreadful. I wonder what I would do if the same thing happened to me, part of me thinks I'd take the risk, to not do what I enjoyed and I loved would kill me.... of course he wouldn't be able to, Brighton nor any other club could pick him or play him with that diagnosis, rightly so. But you...

    [Albion] Our most exciting Premier League game?

    West Ham 3 - 3 Brighton was pretty darn exciting. So was the 3-2 defeat to United, 3-1 over Palace, 3-2 against City and the 3-2 win over Everton

    [Albion] Which of these amazing outcomes would you prefer?

    You have expectations for more than winning the FA Cup? That's impressive. I don't expect we're going to do either of these things this season, finish fourth or win the FA Cup, but I'm going to enjoy the ride regardless :thumbsup:

    [Albion] It's the opposition, not us

    Will always be thus. Remember Sheffield Utd from a few seasons back, they had exactly the same from all other teams - including from us, when they beat us at the Amex it was agreed almost to a man it was because we were shite, not because Wilders Sheffield United made us look shite

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    I think the worse the economy gets the swifter the eventual return to power, because it will be even harder for Labour to sort out the mess. Recall the Barber budget of '72, a tax-cutting disaster, which ended up in 3 day weeks and the winter of discontent - blamed squarely on Wilson and leading...

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    I think the only way out is for a Sunak - May -led grouping to join the opposition in a vote of no confidence - indeed, a vote against the budget would count - out of concern for the damage being done to the country and economy. That would be utterly extraordinary and completely gripping if it...

    [Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

    Although in another sense it undermines the Truss / Kwarteng argument that these measures were essential to prevent the UK falling into recession - as it shows that growth was indeed being achieved by the Johnson / Sunak policies.

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    Q1: It's a pretty clear statement in English. Don't you know the difference between 'wanting' something and being 'desperate' for something? Q2: I think if he was our first choice it would have happened already. Chelsea sacked Tuchel and got their first choice in two days. Potter left us ten...

    [Albion] Chelsea - behind closed doors friendly?

    I assume its because he wants to show his new team how he wants them to play

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    He's clearly desperate for the job. Doesn't mean he'd be bad, but it doesn't feel like our style. If he was first choice we'd have appointed him by now. If he gets it is probably because we can't get our preferred choice (s)

    [Football] CL / EL and that sort of shite

    Yeah, pretty much exactly what I was going to say. The idea you'll get an idea of a fanbases overall view from the match thread on their forum is silly. It would be like an opposition fan coming on here and selectively quoting Junior, Tim Hark, Zebedee and Guinness Boy opinions and passing them...

    [Albion] Next Brighton manager

    That I don't doubt. Of course it comes from one if the more egotistical names in football, who's playbook seems to be about challenging players egos rather than working for togetherness

    [Football] Terrible i know.........

    I dunno. Part of me wants Potter to demonstrate that he really is a top top manager, that we were right all along, and multiple league titles would justify that he made the right decision. Tonight's result is of course irrelevant in the whole scheme if things, he won't change anything overnight.

    [Albion] Next Brighton manager

    So much is made of 'egos' in the world of top footballers' as if these people are impossible to manage. Lots of talk about whether Potter can handle the egos in the Chelsea squad. I think it's all rubbish really. I think the amount of egotistical people that can make it to the top of a game...
