    [Politics] Russia invades Ukraine (24/02/2022)

    how very conveniently put. It is more than likley to be the result of a determined, ruthless, and well-armed minority, where the majority look for help abroad -I imagine that the electorate of Belarus would have welcomed intervention after that prat's rigged elcetion "win".

    [Politics] Russia invades Ukraine (24/02/2022)

    Exactly! I heard the other day that NATO will not accept membersip anyway from a country with border disputes -presumably bacause they don't want to be dragged into a conflict. Also the few hundred British troops in the Baltic States for example do not constitute a threat to Russia and in the 70...

    [Albion] So, was it a red?

    I think on balance you may well be right, but this is not the point here (you don't say it is, I fully realise) -the ref as well as yourself and many others came up with a yellow having seen the incident, where Webby was lurking, and after reflection he gave a red. Therefore it was not a clear...

    [Albion] So, was it a red?

    I don't know what happens after the match but it could well be that at Man Utd the ref who has earned their displeasure gets it in the neck far more than in other venues and it would be understandable of sorts if the poor old ref took what might be described as the easier way out, knowing the...

    [Albion] So, was it a red?

    Yes, I fully understand what you are saying in that we would have to be consistent -if we want to sway the ref at home, then we have to accpet that others do.as well, which count against us. But I do wonder if there is another element at play, namely the increased coverage surrounding the Man...

    [Albion] So, was it a red?

    I wonder if anyone has ever done any research into how many penalties/red cards etc are issued at grounds of the so-called top 6 compared to other grounds. And perhaps correlate it with individual refs?! I am sure that such a thing would meet with much understandable opposition by the football...

    Strange how even when putin's aggression is staring you in the face, you get total fantacists

    [Football] Attendance figure for last night???

    Yes, you are right. I recall the Albion during the Withdean years saying that over 20,000 fans were on their database, but obviously not all went to every match, and we can probably understand why. The club has not attracted 20,000 new fans, but the majority of those who went to Withdean...

    [Politics] May 2021 local elections and Hartlepool by-election

    Yes, I recall it - no wonder the good folk of Hartlepool have had enough, and as you say in a an earlier post, thankfully your average punter sees through the hypocrisy of those who consider themselves to be morally superior to others.

    [TV] Greta Thunberg: A year to change the world

    Admittedly some folk do, but most do believe thaty something sinister is going on, but of course are reluctant to change their lifestyle, if it involves inconvenience, which it will surely do. We are all to blame and I am sure that those on here lecturing others will be as unwilling as most to...

    [News] 1% Pay Rise for Nurses.

    I know what you mean but in reality it should not amaze us as the mob on here are not really interested in any proper analysis, but simply criticising for the sake of it, and I wonder how many of these posters so convinced of their own moral superiority have in fact themselves been financially...

    [News] 1% Pay Rise for Nurses.

    As I understand it, NHS staff are due to get 1% whereas no one else gets anything in the public sector. People concentrate on nurses, but the pay rise surely applies to everyone involved. So my neighbour, who has an admin job supporting a section of the NHS well away from critical care and in a...

    [Albion] Lee Mason

    I am NOT disagreeing with you for one moment but the commentator said that the goal was disallowed because the ball had not gone over the line before the second whistle?? I really don't know what to make of it, but I can't fathom out why he blew the whistle twice -was it because he then saw...
