    Politics / Cuba

    If Ramon Francisco Rocha cares to answer correctly the question I sent him in a Private Message yesterday, I'll be glad to confirm he really is Cuban.

    could our rich chaiman be the problem

    Rich chairmen are never the problem. It's the poor ones you need to avoid!

    Which M/P would you like to see lose his seat ?

    Crispin Blunt - all you Reigate voters, please. Supposedly shadow minister for security. Strange ability to overclaim for some things and fail to declare other things. Always says it's an "oversight". God help us if he ever becomes minister for security...

    "Not a proper team"

    Didn't go today, but a "proper team" would work together to slow the game down by keeping possession when the oppo get frisky. Against Southampton we played some great attacking football but when they upped their game and ran at us, we kept giving the ball back to them with over-ambitious...

    This Lord Ashcroft thing.

    You may not wish to be stuck on a desert island with him, but his achievements here, in Belize and in the USA show him to be a pretty exceptional and entrepreneurial guy - as well as being a philanthropic one (Crimestoppers, Anglia Ruskin Uni etc). I imagine he pays tax here on his relevant UK...

    Did Boris Johnson lie to get ellected?

    He said very early on he couldn't get rid of it until the spring of this year. So he's not late yet... When he saw what a shed-load of money Livingston had borrowed to stick multiple cameras on every street corner, he may have had to revise his plans.

    Ann DeVecchi - Planning Application

    Very amusing - but I think we should leave it there. Lewes are our new neighbours and we may need their help in the future. Let bygones be bygones...

    What was your first car?

    Green Sunbeam Stiletto (sort of soupped-up Hillman Imp); written off in an IRA bomb explosion near Sloane Square in January 1974. Quite annoying!

    Withdean Wanderer - hope you feel a bit better tomorrow. By the way, Navarro was subbed because he was injured.

    Player Rating Albion V Millwall

    I'm with the "glass half full" mob. Apart from Virgo's mad moment and Elphick getting himself booked after two and a half minutes for trying to kick chunks out of a Millwall player who was sitting on the ground, it looked a decent performance from the North stand. The first ten minutes were, as...

    Anthony Charles Lynton Blair.

    He was never going to be in trouble and this Enquiry was never going to get anywhere. The truth is that a lot of people (maybe even a majority) were in favour of the invasion at the time but the starting date had to be rushed forward to get the thing over before the summer arrived and the...

    Ski / Snowboard Hire...

    Hire them at the resort. It'll waste half an hour of your first morning but you can change them, have them adjusted, have them repaired, have them replaced if someone steals them (not an uncommon experience, so make sure your insurance covers it) and buy all the other bits and pieces you'll...

    Hells teeth, Croydon Seagull. If it's like that in 12 months, they really should have tried a bit harder in Copenhagen...

    Player Ratings from last nights game

    I thought they looked much sharper than against Hartlepool (the only other game I've seen this season). Tunnicliffe quite often managed to head the ball in the right direction and the rest kept it down and moved it around pretty well. Sadly Graeme Smith gave the game to Norwich in the second...

    Phil Brown

    Poor bloke. I think he'll need a longish holiday to recover from his last twelve months at Hull.

    Next Albion Manager

    I think we can discount Taylor. His antics on the coach when he walked out on us have not been forgotten.

    Wilkins - what a coach

    Wilkins had the huge advantage of a full season of both Kuipers and Forster playing at their best. Even so, I remember a dreadful, late-season game against Hartlepool; yes, we won, but the football was abysmal and the south stand half empty. That's when Wilkins lost the board's confidence.

    London people and good food

    The Wolseley - cafe-restaurant - London, UK Big, fun, buzzy place with good food at slightly less than monstrous prices. Next to Ritz hotel. Need to book ahead - sometimes quite tricky but explain the circumstances and you should get in. (The web site has a menu).
