B-b-b-but that's Lord Bracknell without the beard ...

Was that the match when there was a couple rolling around kissing so vigorously that it was frankly foreplay on the steps up to the terrace in the Northwest? They got arrested and were fined for indecent behaviour or something like that. It was definitely that season but not 100% sure it was...

The way she has acted for the last 24 years is truly humbling. No-one should have to do what she has done - but she is a lesson in how not to let the *******s grind you down. A wonderful woman.

True, but over 11 games, Bolton are on 8 wins, 3 defeats. You may be underplaying their hand.

Yep - surprised this hasn't been done more often. While it hasn't, I reckon it'd be a great psychological ploy, even if the goalie you bring on isn't any better at pens than the #1.

I fondly remember (Ian) Chapman scything down (Neil) Lennon when Albion played Crewe at the Goldstone once, and getting booked for his troubles. I was the only one who found it funny at the time, though.

Basil and Colin Gabbidon were in Steel Pulse. I think that their parents first lived in Cardiff, then Birmingham when they moved to the UK many moons ago. So I wonder whether Danny Gabbidon is related to them? Began his career at WBA and also played for Cardiff ... (The less said about his...

I'm still fuming at the ticket prices for the 1910 Charity Shield. Can't believe they're planning to pull this one on us only 103 years later.

In retrospect, it was a death trap. My feet didn't touch the ground for minutes at a time, it was so packed. But, yes, it was the most exhilarating Albion game ever for me.

If the playing budget increased by more than the billion trillion squillion pounds of tv money we'd get as extra income, I'd be worried. And I don't think 22,000 people paying £50 more (one meeelion pounds in total) would be what keeps the club's head above water (or within the bounds of FFP regs).

Hmmm, sounds like the Club wants to have its cake and eat it. When I had a season ticket every season at Gillingham and Withdean, it was explicit that we were paying over the odds due to the financial situation of the club. IE we agreed to pay MUCH more than the market would hold; because the...

... My gripe, though, is how far behind the commentary is. I knew the goal had been scored (by text & twitter) at least two minutes before I heard it!

Not true. I'm listening to the commentary now thru the FL app on my iPhone, using my Player subscription.

He sails very close to the wind onstage at Lakeside when BBC isn't broadcasting. I wasn't in any doubt what he really thought, and it wasn't pretty.

Depends on the result. If we lose or draw, we're in a scrap, and other games will take on a much bigger profile than this. But if we win v Leicester, we'll be cast-iron favourites for the play-offs and are likely to look back on Saturday as the crunch match in our regular season.

Yeah, they've licked him.

Hmm, I like this. "Stripey Nigels" hasn't really caught on, so how about "Groupon Scrotes" as our new nickname for Palace fans?

Hmmm, a life that's more fun, healthier, uses less money & resource, and where you share expertise with people (eg this thread). That's pretty much a definition of a 'green' lifestyle, OP. So are you calling yourself a w*****? ;-)

I take it that's Saltzman doing a show; Oliver is presumably in NYC prepping for his big break presenting the Daily Show.
