    [Politics] The General Election Thread

    Yes it’s great to see them get a proper grilling. Those tv debates feel lame and set up. I’m sure Swinson is an open goal for Neill, as her policy in ignoring half the nation has completely fallen flat on its face. Boris will get accused of double standards, lying and not doing much to tackle...

    [Politics] The General Election Thread

    As someone that has voted for all major parties in the past, I am looking for someone better than Johnson to get us out of this mess. Unfortunately Corbyn has been shown up for being utterly clueless with fantasy policies. That just, “gulp” leaves me with Boris!

    [Football] Right then. After that demonstration... VAR? Yes or No?

    Maddison encroached too and scored. He was first to the ball and first to effect the game. It should depend on which team gains an advantage from the encroachment. In this case it was Leicester. We should have had a freekick and the pen should not be retaken.

    [Football] Right then. After that demonstration... VAR? Yes or No?

    This is a point I was making. If through a result of the attacking teams encroachment they still score, or prevent a clearance, it should be a freekick to the defending team. You don’t get the ball back after scoring an offside goal and get to have another go at it!?

    [Albion] Real feelings about Utd game

    I hate to pick on one player.. and a few had off days today. But Pröpper had yet another one. I am losing my patience with him. I’ve waited to see his real talent and he just hasn’t shown it. Although he wasn’t the worst today. He just loses the ball in key areas too much and too often imo.

    [Albion] Time to let Duffy go?

    This plus Webster can play fullback and allow for formation changes in game.

    [Albion] Reviewing Red Card Decision

    It was for Maupay hack of the ball on the goal line. No way a red. VAR reviewed and correctly decided no red. It wasn’t even a foul. They HAVE to start showing the clips on the big screen and announcing what the check is for.

    [Albion] Time to let Duffy go?

    Game of opinions. I think Webster is superior in every element. I think Potter does too.

    [Albion] Time to let Duffy go?

    I’m really happy for Duffers. Quality defender and deserves his goal and plaudits. I just think that Webster is a cut above Duffy. Passing, tackling, forward runs and nouse from Webster are just a level above Duffy this the moment. I hope he’s back for next Sunday.. I think we can get all 3...

    [Albion] 30539?!

    The game was sold out (technically). So why didn’t more in the ESL put their tickets up on the exchange? I’ve sold mine 2 matches in a row due to work commitments. You get the full value back. -£1. crazy that so many don’t show up.

    [Albion] Why is Dunk consistently overlooked by England?

    Since when did England pick good players? It’s all about who is in Shoot or Match magazine.

    [TV] The return of Spitting Image

    I can’t wait to see what they do with Farage. Edit.. Having read the article (should have done that first), it looks like it will be for a global audience and probably sold to HBO. Therefore Farage and co probably won’t get a look in. It therefore has the potential to hugely disappoint the UK...

    [Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Well I’d rather watch us play a bit and have a go and go down 2-0 than backs against the wall with no chance! At least we had a go. We just need to cut out the silly mistakes at the back. There’s nothing wrong with going long from the keeper away from home.

    [Albion] Maty Ryan - analysis & discussion

    Although you can’t blame the substitution for the goal, it did feel like an unnecessary distraction for a game so finely balanced. The goal came almost immediately after Bong came on and Rodriguez got to celebrate it. I’m sure the fact that Bong had just walked on the pitch would not have been...

    [Albion] Florin Andone season-long loan to Galatasaray

    I have to agree.. whether it was a no dickheads policy that got him pushed out or something else. It leaves us very very short up front. So we start with Murray and Maupay, then Connelly replaces Murray on 65mins. That’s basically what will happen in every game. If one of them gets injured, we...

    [Albion] Florin Andone season-long loan to Galatasaray

    This can be dressed up as freeing up space for youngsters to come through. However the real truth is, that Andone had been sent off twice for the same offence and the club wanted to ship out after the Southampton game. I disagree with this way of thinking, that a sending off and you are out of...
