    [Albion] Brighton to save Danish Superliga club, Lyngby BK, from bankruptcy.

    I think Matthew Benham (Brentford owner and Bloom-competitor) also owns a Danish club? Interesting parallel

    [Albion] Norwich's position on 19th January 2014 under Hughton

    This is an excellent post, and well reasoned and I can't disagree with any of it. That said, my biggest concern this year isn't how we have played against the Top 6. It's that the way we have set up to play against the Top 6 has permeated into other games - particularly away from home. As...

    [Cricket] Jofra Archer

    England have to find a way of fast-tracking him. There must be a little known grandmother we can find!

    [Misc] B. Tapestry - Loan Signing From France

    Undoubted quality, but been languishing in the French leagues for too long. Also, some doubt about how he would perform at Stamford Bridge...

    [Albion] Skalak off?

    "the spelling was to bad" :shootself

    [Albion] Relax and chill a little .....

    Tim, I absolutely agree. It's brilliant to see who we're playing and where we are, and nobody expected it to be easy. That said, I want us to look like we're enjoying the Prem. To play with passion, and to attack teams - particularly those around us. We've shown we can go toe-to-toe with...

    [Misc] Churchill

    All of this is absolutely correct. Between the wars he was a political disaster, he completely misjudged the people in 1945 and then returned as PM for all the wrong reasons in 1951. That said, when it mattered, when we needed someone with his resolve, charisma and energy, he delivered - and...

    [Albion] Striker search.

    Nice idea. Mind you, we were in League Division Three when we signed Wardy. Leicester were in the Championship when they signed Vardy.

    [Humour] Joke du Jour.

    It sounds more like some sap bubbling out of the wood than anything else (especially warts). Has the shed been put up recently?

    [Albion] Seagull line

    Or waiting for Ceefax page 42/75 to come round...

    [Football] Anyone left on here who still thinks

    Yes - but we all know that's not the point. We've not looked like climbing back up the table for a while, and the sides that struggled (even including Swansea) are all getting their acts together. In Stoke we trust... I'm still with Hughton. I think he deserves a crack at this, and we still...

    [Football] Carillion on the brink ?

    Maybe that's why they weren't appointed?

    [Football] Are negative tactics killing the Premier League?

    There's really only one logical conclusion to all of this - establishment of a Euro Super League that the Top Six "global super clubs" can [p*ss off and] join, along with peers from Spain, Germany, PSG etc, leaving a new "Premier League" where at least the matches will be real and properly...

    [Football] Neil Swarbrick

    If they can run air traffic control for Heathrow entirely offsite, I reckon they might be able to do a few video replays for a football game...

    [Travel] Putting today into perspective: A23 accident

    Everything today put into perspective by seeing the aftermath of a horrible motorbike accident on the A23. Two points lost suddenly didn’t seem quite so disappointing. Thoughts with the family and anyone on here who might be affected.

    [Albion] Just how hard is it to get points off this top 6?

    Very frustrating to go to Stamford Bridge on Boxing Day, and see such a toothless performance in attack, and I can’t quite understand why you wouldn’t bring Baldock on as soon as we went 2-0 down. That said, if we end up with 4 points or more over the next two games, it will all be forgotten...

    [Albion] Dembele on the way

    Quite commonly no smoke without fire!

    [Albion] Player Ratings - Burnley (h)

    Whilst it’s easy to knock Solly, I can’t help noticing that our best half at home since West Brom featured him providing a threat down the left with Knockaert on the other flank (as indeed it did then too). He has pace and creates space -which Gross is fantastic as getting into and exploiting...

    [Football] Stereotypes of various clubs' fans

    Spurs - unrealistic expectations (normally made worse by near neighbour success) Leeds/Sheff W - "big clubs" clinging on to past glories Man City - either old "dyed-in-the-sky-blue-wool" or JCLs living in Surrey
