    Brighton's worst XI

    Yeah definitely the injury. He was magic for one game when we beat Wycombe 4-0 and that seemed like an indicator of his potential. Also seem to remember that all the players said he was the most skilled player in the squad at the time (might have been bullshit!). Just very unlucky with fitness!

    Brighton's worst XI

    Was it George Santos or Joe Dolan? Both were shocking. It's very cruel, as they were clearly well out of their depth and thrown under a bus at a delicate stage of their careers, but I struggle to think of as ineffective strike partnership as Marney and Wilkinson in the Championship with...

    Pet Hates

    After last night - 'back-strokers' - people who, in a queue, seem to think that it is the distance they have covered rather than the number of people in front of them that will determine how long the queue will take. Therefore, rather than leave a socially acceptable gap between themselves and...

    Warning, this will make your eyes water.

    Please tell me you weren't the patient?!

    [Film] David Brent: Life on the Road

    The elephant in the room is that Stephen Merchant is not involved this time. Based on Gervais work up to now the lack of his writing partner could well mean this is going to be crap. Not too worried about it ruining the ending of The Office - it was mainly Time and Dawn who had a good ending and...

    Connor Goldson - Danger Mouse

    One for the discerning music fan - I have spent all season thinking our favourite Israeli goal scorer is a dead ringer for performer http://e0.365dm.com/15/01/768x432/tommer-hemed-almeria_3247611.jpg?20150103215700...

    Seriously underrated players

    Trevor Benjamin had a really good loan spell with us - always surprised that his career went so quickly downhill afterwards.

    Accrington Stanley goal denied by half-time whistle

    This would surely on,y be right if the number of seconds was an absolute amount, which is clearly not the case, as not only ks the amount of injury time given only a rough amount ('a minimum of...') but there are likely to have been small delays in those injury time minutes, so trying to time it...

    [Music] The Live Music thread

    So The Boss' UK dates clash directly with Primavera. Bugger. Think I would probably have picked a weekend in Barcelona over an evening at The Ricoh, on balance, though! Hope so,e others are able to go.

    1 coffee please - milk and 25 sugars, thanks.

    The drink that actually had 25 teaspoons of sugar was actually some kind of hot mulled fruit thing - not coffee at all, a fact that has been conveniently ignored by the likes of that Guardian article (and this thread). That said, it is bizarre how much of our coffee culture seems to be dominated...

    Married at first sight...

    There was already a series of this on last year. You're right to be suspicious of the 'science' involved - it was complete nonsense and failed to distract from the fact that it was a mildly disturbing piece of reality fluff. Mind you, one of the women on it last time was extremely attractive, so...

    Can You Fault Tim Martin

    Your local Spoonies is obviously not The Cliftonville... And I post this with a heavy heart as I realise it can be only moments until a certain boring boring poster does his usual tired old shtick about the hilarity of the homophones sauce and source in the vain hope that someone anywhere still...

    [Drinking] The Bison Arms

    Much as I'd love to see a pub reopen as a pub and not a Burger King, I'm not convinced that they have picked a very good site for their potential opening. Around the pier tends to attract the tourists and I'm not massively fond of the idea of drinking craft beer amongst the stag dos and hen parties!

    Shoreham Fatty

    Is that comparison by per 100g or per unit? McDs cheeseburgers are tiny, so not really surprising they have less calories than many things. Wonder how long they're going to keep you from being hungry though.

    Albums Thread - 2016

    Dan Deacon is ome of the best acts to see live on the whole planet. Thought his schtick would. E getting boring by now but his Haunt show last year was one of the best gigs I've been to in Brighton. Not quite such a big fan on record as I think his albums tend to have a fair bit of filler...

    anyone got google chromecast?

    Have one and used to use it all the time. Really good for watching in different places as you can, for example, start a programme on ipad whilst doing the cooking and then transfer it to tv with the click of a button when in front of the tv. Obviously lots of apps remember where you are across...

    Football Pubs in Hove?

    The Sussex shows football if you like the sort of pub where everyone is in there on their own and you're the only one that the barmaid doesn't know by name. Has the Exchange closed or do you mean demise because it ain't what it used to be?

    [Albion] 24 games, 2 losses, 4th place, 8 points clear of 7th

    Never really understand this kind of question, because surely context is everything. At the start of the season of course we would all have taken it, but I'm not sure how relevant that is now. What if we lost every game between now and the end of next season, would we then say 'would you have...
