    [News] There's no need to panic buy petrol

    It's 1% on top of those issues you mention. It's also the start of a problem that's been several months in the making, so hopefully this is a bad as it gets but who knows. Look, papers do what papers do, and the public does what the public does. Its all very predictable, to you, to me, to the...

    [News] There's no need to panic buy petrol

    But you can't keep shooting the messenger, nor acting surprised that the Sun prints its headlines the way it does. The fact is that this story was in the media four months ago in a non - sensationalised way, and the government did nothing. Its taken a dramatic news cycle to finally kick their...

    [News] There's no need to panic buy petrol

    It is indeed sensationalised, and it has indeed led to people panic-buying fuel - BUT the fuel supply had already started to run out before the headlines were published because of logistics problems, and it is a problem that, if not necessarily of this government's making, certainly one that...

    [Cricket] Good news for Sussex fans

    Maybe this is the Faustian pact us Sussex folk have made. 'You can have your Premier League football team, but your cricket team will be eternally damned'

    [News] There's no need to panic buy petrol

    To be fair, this has been forewarned for a while, with the FT running a long article back in May predicting all this "An exodus of EU lorry drivers from the UK since Brexit has left the British haulage and logistics industry facing an acute staff shortage and a looming crisis for industrial and...

    I like the first comment under that :"Graham has just seen an under 20 centre back going cheap"

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Swansea City *** Official Match Thread ***

    I've only ever seen a young guy trying hard in Aaron Connolly. I've never seen someone with an attitude problem. Delighted for him tonight, we've got a real talent in Connolly and I'm looking forward to seeing him develop.

    [Albion] Seventh Heaven

    Guessing one of the teams below us played on the Sunday and overtook us. If that doesn't count then we can claim 3rd as our highest position. Beat Palace and we could head for third if Chelsea don't beat Man City on Saturday. Might be getting a little ahead of myself there though!!

    [Albion] Team for League Cup game v Swansea

    I've liked the look of Tolaj for ages. He may well get a run out at some point. But Connolly is an important first team member and has to get game time under his belt, hopefully a goal or two as well. Locadia too, to a lesser degree.

    [Albion] Team for League Cup game v Swansea

    Oh rly? Straight to pens is it? The bastardisation of the modern game. I think back to some of my all time favourite Brighton games, in the old two legged League Cup, Man Utd under the lights at the Goldstone, Leicester away at Filbert Street. All taken from us so the big boys can play a few...

    [Albion] Seventh Heaven

    Absolutely, all the monotheistic religions that originated on the middle east diverged very recently and share the same texts, Christ is an important figure in all of them, but only deified by Christians. And the closer religions are, the more they fight with each other. I liken it to football...

    [Albion] Seventh Heaven

    On one hand they certainly look relatively kind... On the other, Burnley away isn't easy for anyone and we had to fight like hell to stay in that game. Brentford away is looking tougher by the week, they've beaten Arsenal and Wolves now, and again, we had to fight like he'll to stay in the game...

    [Albion] Seventh Heaven

    I think the link between heaven and religion was fairly clear ;) Thank you, I was genuinely interested. In my, admittedly very sporadic, Church going we're only told about the one heaven, so this is not in the protestant faith I presume? Or just tucked away somewhere as too complicated for the...

    [Albion] Seventh Heaven

    Now i'm thinking, why is the phrase 'seventh heaven'? Where does that come from? What's wrong with the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th heaven? Or the 8th or 9th for that matter?

    [Albion] Brighton - "more ruthless, less ballet"

    Absolutely spot on, and speaks a lot to human nature. What the argument is missing is an acknowledgement that Potter was 'always' trying to make us play quicker and find that killer pass quicker, what we were doing last year wasn't a final product but a stage in our development. As we get better...

    [Albion] Graham Potter joins on four-year deal

    I can understand there are people that think like this, results-first, and that's fair enough I suppose, we're all different. For me its far more about the trajectory, the promise of better results in the future, enjoying the journey. When we get 'there', wherever 'there' is, it will become more...

    [Albion] Brighton - "more ruthless, less ballet"

    I don't see us as that different to before at all stylistically. We have long periods where we dominate the ball and make chances, and when we are ahead (or score an equaliser away from home) we sit back and absorb pressure. That was the case all last season. The difference this year, albeit on...

    [Albion] Team for League Cup game v Swansea

    I'd imagine he'll start though, as he can then be taken off whenever he needs to be, its more of a guessing game if he goes on as a sub, especially as it could go to extra time
