    [Albion] Brighton FA Cup Giant Kills

    With an FLT result going against them, Albion went out of three cups in five days during November 1994.

    I thought it was 'Anthony's a racist' Must be that there Welsh accent.

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    I remember the Indian victory after following on against the Australians in 2001. Folk said the Aussies started the trend of not enforcing it, rather forgetting why that was :lolol:

    [Albion] Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall **Singed for Chelsea 02/07/2024**

    Him being a regular top flight player last season changes that though. Quite a few players from relegated sides have fetched large transfer fees.

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    That was really good news. To me a strong Windies is strong international cricket. Of course, it may just be a blip. But we live in hope.

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    I can think of three occasions, the most recent being New Zealand against us last year. But in cases where a team hasn't followed on, I can't think of any. Although England came very close at Durban in 2004. I remember tuning in on the Tuesday, having had a long sleep after an equally longer...

    [Football] Apparently Arteta is also leaving at end of the season

    My favourite post of the day :lolol:

    [Albion] Did Glen Johnson oversee the dullest FA Cup draw ever?

    It was in Sun City in RSA. I was at the table and not doing well. I went from being down beyond my means to up in 5 minutes. I wouldn't do it again. Number 17 is lucky for me. Ladbrokes once gave me ten free spins and I decided that if I made £40 I would go to the away match at Barnsley that...

    [Albion] Did Glen Johnson oversee the dullest FA Cup draw ever?

    Actually, yes, I'm wrong. Maidstone getting the plumb away tie at Sheffield Wednesday is too massive to go without scrutiny.

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    Bumrah was getting reverse swing, so there could be an argument. I guess they'll have to wait and take a look. Not long either.

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    I didn't either, although I did wonder if India might self destruct- and they did. That's why I'm just happy to see an England win. I'm not confident they will continue it. But if they do it would be a splendid bonus. My glass is half full, which is better than the empty it was at the start of...

    [Cricket] Test Series- England in India- January & February 2024

    :lolol: I must be getting on because I thought that in the first innings. 'At least look like you haven't come off the village square...' As for Hartley, I'm not much drawn to him at the moment as a permanent spin option. And one innings doesn't change that. I have seen Shaoaib Bashir bowl and...

    [Albion] Did Glen Johnson oversee the dullest FA Cup draw ever?

    Quite long I suspect. But that is not evidence of rigging. If you look at the National Lottery draws you'll see that strange combinations occur now and then. A draw doesn't settle according to averages. In the National Lottery draw earlier this month, the numbers 1, 5 and 38 came out in two of...

    It would come under fraud.

    [Albion] Did Glen Johnson oversee the dullest FA Cup draw ever?

    Probably. They forget that the draw is independently observed and to fix the draw would also be a criminal offence. Apparently, pitting big clubs against each other is for the TV, but avoiding each other is to get them in the next round. You can identify folk who believe this, they hang out on...

    [Albion] Did Glen Johnson oversee the dullest FA Cup draw ever?

    Too right. They didn't have to heat the balls up either. See you on the corrupt ref thread next time we lose. :lolol:

    [Football] FA Cup 5th round draw [Wolves away]

    There are still folk who actually believe that. I'll have to record it now. I rather wish the hoolies could have warned us.

    [Football] Chrystal Palace for sale. £750 million valuation apparently:

    I'm happy to go to £1.34. I have a consortium and we think that is fair value.
