    The moment you believed it really would happen...

    Difficult one, this. Having been a fan for long enough to know what we are capable of, I spent all season (well, since 25 September) thinking "the wheels have to come off at some point" - but they never did. So, I suppose it sort of sneaked up on me. But that week of Yeovil & Brentford has to be...

    Politics when we play Notts County

    I also remember approaching the end of the 2000/01 season, playing at Carlisle, and having to endure some of our thicker fans singing "We'll never play you again".:facepalm: We also had it at Rochdale a couple of weeks ago.:ohmy:

    so IF we beat daggers do we get the P next 2 our name

    Prior to today's matches, if we had drawn all of our remaining matches, we would be guaranteed promotion. Now if we draw all of our remaining matches, we are Champions. Lovely.

    ICC cuts future Cricket World Cups to 10 teams

    This is a terrible decision for 2015, although at least in 2019 there will be qualification so the Associates will have a chance then. And, to be fair to the ICC, they have a system whereby the test-playing nations are obliged to organise matches against Associates, so they do get some chance to...

    Census answers

    And in that space the Scottish ones have a question for Scottish Gaelic and Scots. Presumably the Northern Irish ones have a similar question.

    18 points or six wins

    Me = :dunce: Needless to say, I can't take my focus away from top spot! Shouldn't stop me reading properly though, should it?

    18 points or six wins

    I'm afraid your calculations are slightly ruined by the fact that Southampton can still get 97 points.

    O/T I bet the people of Zimbabwe wished they were an oil producing nation.

    Being an oil-producing nation hasn't helped the people of Bahrain though, has it? It's not about oil - it's (always) strategic.

    Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Assumptions, assumptions. That'll be 1737 supporting Brighton. There'll be quite a few from London, for a start. And there's at least one from Scotland!

    Brighton & Hove Albion vs Plymouth Argyle *** Official Thread ***

    That is a little odd ... they usually do. So let's make up our own. The important bit is this: 1. Brighton P29 GD33 Pts59 2. BMuff P32 GD22 Pts55 3. Hudds P31 GD15 Pts 52 4. PBoro P31 GD7 Pts50 5. Scum P29 GD23 Pts49 6. Franchise Scum P33 GD-2 Pts49 7. Charlton P29 GD6 Pts47 Looks lovely...

    Brighton & Hove Albion vs Plymouth Argyle *** Official Thread ***

    Yeah, but that would be negative greediness ... I want positive greediness!

    Brighton & Hove Albion vs Plymouth Argyle *** Official Thread ***

    Well, we could be greedy and ask Colchester, Wednesday, D&R and Hartlepool to score.

    *** The Official Thread of the FA Cup FIFTH Round Draw ***

    Any northern team whose ground I haven't been to, so Everton, ManUtd or ManCIty. Alternatively, any Midlands team whose ground I haven't been to, so Brum, Villa, Wolves or Stoke. After that, I don't care.

    Andy Gray and Richard Keys....

    Offensive, sexist nonsense - and nothing less. Anybody who thinks it is just a bit of harmless banter (Heyhoe-Flint's line), or doubts that anyone could really be offended by it, should try and look outside their own little, ignorant bubble. Of course, I don't think any of us should be...

    Let off some steam with your 'favourite' words that people get wrong.....

    So many, so many... The use of 'of' when what is meant is 'have' is just stupid - and very common on here. And then there's 'however' used as a conjunction. The use of 'that' in non-restrictive clauses - unquestionably the very worst Americanism. However, 'literally' when used to stress a...

    Home Championship set to return

    You were doing so well until that last sentence. I sincerely hope this happens, although as someone has pointed out, they are now only talking of a one-off. Scottish domestic football has not been reorganised. A suggested new structure was due to be put forward, but due to the fact that it was...

    NSC Demographics: GENDER

    Presumably the poll creator meant sex. This one really gets my goat - people confusing sex and gender. It's not difficult!
