Yes, fully agree.

Plymouth away for a night match in the late 60s. I recall looking around for Albion fans in daylight, prior to the match, so it must have been August or September. Could not see any, so perhaps just our one car-load.

Not sure with one government franchise, that cannot be voted out and a standardised service, that you would then get choice? To say nothing of the level of efficiency of a nationalised service.

Yes, exactly.

Yes, I too sing Sussex by the Sea loudly and other "respectable" songs, but anything that is just sung to provoke other teams'( fans) is where I stop. Like you, I have "moved on" as I have got older. I shouldn't cover myself in too much glory, however,as I am sure that I joined in when in...

Hastings Old Town has a memorial to the victims of a similar attack. I recall reading that when the bombers had anything left to drop, they got rid of the bombs before heading over the sea to keep the weight of the plane down. Sadly, we did this as well -my German friends, now in the their 80s...

But it really has gone quiet over the last few weeks, so was your infantile comment really necessary?

Strangely, that was exactly my experience, when I too chatted about the match prior to us going there. the chap I spoke too was really adamant that they are doomed.

Exactly. Reading the posts at half time as to his apparent stupidity ( to be fair, we were largely poor, and coming after Bournemouth) and now he shows just what he does know about tactics. We need to trust rather more and not just momentarily jump to conclusions.

Yes, exactly. Always wise to wait until the game has finished before launching into negativity, however frustrating that first half was. True girt shown by the team at last.

[/B] Whilst I fully agree with you, I don't think you should be writing such stuff -everyone knows that leavers are thick and racist . .

Yet again the Clamp shows his unbelievable arrogance as he dismisses millions of people, who will doubtless have had far more experience of real life than this virtue-signalling trendy.

But I would have thought that he had every chance but the lure of easy huge amounts of dosh somehow got the better of him. Not saying that it isn't sad, that he died so young, but in the end he chose what he did.

[/B] Yes, all very true but tell that to couple of hundred on either side determined to cause mayhem. Sadly they cause such huge problems, out of all proportion to their numbers, that on occasion draconian measures are necessary.

I suspect that this is simply not not true. There are many reasons why tourists come to Britain, of course, but I am pretty sure that the idea of the royals plays a significant part. And how exactly has it been proven, as you state? I am sure that I read that London is the most visited city in...

Well, it is not for me to say but . .

Yes, fully agree. I am sure that the general malaise with regard to the cup nowadays is to blame. I did go, but am fed up with hearing from the club about the magic of the cup to try and drum up support, when the reality clearly is that it seemingly comes way down in their priorities. Will I go...

Can't argue with that. Yet again I turn up dutifully for a cup game, as the club tell us all about the magic of the cup, and yet again we are treated to rubbish from start to finish.

Yes, absolutely. I am tired of hearing the club management repeatedly telling us about the magic of the cup etc, and seeing yet again a pathetic performance devoid of any class or grit.

Can't find a thread but thought it is worth posting. I notice that one hourly train from Hastings has been cancelled and this happened for a cup match last year. It resulted in over-crowding and if you are coming from Polegate, Berwick and Glynde, and by chance you see this, bear it in mind...
