    [Albion] The handball penalty

    Exactly. If the rules had been applied this way against Luton then they wouldn’t have got their penalty

    [Misc] Paper rounds

    Morning round 7 days a week on Shoreham Beach from about 78 to 81. Didn't mind getting up in the morning then and my mum always had a cooked breakfast ready for me when I got home. Can't recall exactly how much I got paid but I think it was something like £2 a week

    [TV] Trumpton, Chigley or Camberwick Green

    Team Trumpton here but respect to Windy Miller for this

    [Albion] Ground extensions - that old chestnut!

    You obviously have no grasp at all of the difficulty the club had in finding the Falmer site in the first place. What is this 'neighbouring' land that the club could buy then? One reason the club actually got permission to build the current stadium is because there is simply no alternative...

    [Albion] Is this “player” shirt legit ?

    Fake for me too, precisely because of the wrong shade of blue for the logo. Amex are fiercely insistent that their logo is correct in proportion, colour, typeface, everything wherever it's shared (I know from bitter personal experience!)

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    I’m aware that the majority of dog owners (no doubt you included) are responsible, but this is neither new or UK specific. The first time I got bitten was about 50 years ago by a dog whose owner thought the way to exercise it was simply to let it roam the streets during the day. Another occasion...

    [Misc] Bully XL’s

    As someone who’s been bitten 3 times by dogs in completely unprovoked attacks I would support a total ban on dogs. In addition to that I have twice been bitten by dogs that were out of control and attacking my kids on the beach (on the part of Worthing beach where dogs are actually banned). None...

    [Albion] Pervis Estupiñán or Andy Robertson?

    Still a very decent defender though. Shaw and Wan Bissaka were the two main reasons why we were frustrated by Man U at Wembley

    [News] The Assault on Jenni Hermoso

    Ah, I get you now. Anyone in any form of power who is not hard left only got there because they were “part of the elite”. Only ever born into it, never worked for it. Right

    [News] The Assault on Jenni Hermoso

    Our society is so unequal that a man born of Indian immigrants manages to work his way up to become prime minister. Whether you agree with his politics or not (and I’ll guess you don’t) you can’t argue that Sunak is a product of the “elites” . He is a product of his/his family’s hard work...

    [Albion] Europa League odds

    I view the Europa League as our best bet for a trophy this season as it's the only we are in that Man City are not

    [Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

    If he shows half the quality he did before his injury then 15 minutes from him may be all we need to turn a game our way. Definitely not expecting 'peak Messi' from him though

    [Football] Could long term player contracts become the norm?

    I'm just amazed that the 8 year contract is happening at Chelsea - have they already forgotten what happened with Winston Bogarde? They could get a few like that from the current crop

    [Albion] Paul Winstanley: how to make friends and influence people

    Of course, what would be even funnier is if Winstanley has all along been telling Boehly "we really should go in at a sensible level for Caicedo. If you try low-balling Bloom you won't get anywhere" and the Todd has just been ignoring him, while letting him take all the flak

    [Albion] £115m

    Indeed. If anything the noises from the club this time round have all been positive about Moises behaviour. It's only the Twitter 'experts' (I'm not giving them the pleasure of naming them) who have been trying to make it sound like he's been causing trouble. Yet some of our own fans still want...

    [Albion] Has Ferguson Scored Our Best Headed Goal?

    I seem to recall Steve Piper scoring against Millwall sometime in the 70's with a bullet of a header from just outside the penalty area. I could be misremembering though as I was only about 14 at the time. I would put that above Fergie's header against Leicester but not by much

    [Other Sport] 2023 Tour de France

    To me it looked as if Vingegaard had been targeting this stage for a while. Over the last few road stages he has been doing the bare minimum to track Pogacar and didn't seem concerned when Pog took a few seconds here and there. Much less draining to be on the defensive than to be the attacker...

    [News] Just Stop Oil

    Certainly if compared with the F1 crowd, not to mention the speeding cars. I mean snooker, tennis, cricket, Chelsea flower show - not exactly renowned for hard core response are they? If they were going to disrupt the cricket they would have had a tougher gig at Edgbaston or Headingley. All they...

    [News] Just Stop Oil

    Personally I'd have a bit more respect for JSO if they had tried to disrupt the F1 yesterday. At least it would have shown them to be fully committed to their cause rather than being a few 'look at me' types just going for easy targets.
