    [Albion] Our best 3 signings relative to the clubs standing?

    Vicente is number 1 for me. It was a crazy moment when they announced that Then Lallana. As my 10 year old puts it 'he is the first player we have ever signed that I have heard of' Then not sure whether it would be Zamora, Bridge or Upson. All we great players but coming to us on the way...

    [Football] All or Nothing Tottenham Hotspur

    May give it a go but not too fussed with it. I watched abut 20 mins of the Man City one and switched it off. Sunderland till I die on the other hand I was hooked on and binge watched. Maybe I just like it when things go really wrong?

    [Offers] Athletic offer ends today.

    I have gone through and cancelled mine. At times I read a hell of a lot of it, at others I don't open it for months. Upon saying I wanted to cancel they offered a free month. I accepted, refreshed the page and still cancelled. I will just wait to start up a new discount rather than pay £60 for...

    [Misc] Exam results

    I had a maths teacher like that. Saw him a few years later and caught up, said I was doing pretty well and working in a role that needed a good use of maths. I was a bit smug, until he just smiled and said that he was 'glad his words motivated me to reach my potential'

    [NSC] Favourite Ice Cream Flavour

    Mint Choc Chip. My wife and 2 sons think I am 'a bit weird' for liking ice cream that 'tastes like toothpaste' ... On days like today I often think of leaving them. Only positive is that I get the tub to myself

    [Albion] Who Was Brighton's First £100,000 Player?

    Who was the first player we signed where the deal included tracksuits?

    [Albion] Hypothetical question as it will never happen but

    First instinct would be a 'no chance' because I hate his attitude etc. However, when actually thinking about it, the blue and white tinted specs are funny old things. He is a cracking player and actually seems like a pretty decent bloke. He is just so perfect for the pantomime villain role and...

    [TV] Breeders

    Watched the first two episodes with the wife the other day. Found the first one hilarious and very much a 'things you say in your heads' when the kids are being like that. Second episode was a bit disappointing. Felt like nothing really happened and it wasn't that amusing

    Will the internet break?

    I would suggest that we will be OK. A lot of CRM and ERP systems used by business are cloud based now so they would be connected to them via their offices anyway. It will spike and there will be extra demand but I think it will most likely be fine. I work for an IT reseller and, despite...

    [Albion] What are you going to do without football and other sport?

    Would have gone and watched my local team (about the 8/9th tier) but one of their players has now tested positive for it. It being behind closed doors wouldn't have been too bad as I could have spent the whole day locked in and watching games

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    I am pretty sure it was the same with SARS and the only reason they could think of was that the lungs hadn't been too impacted by smoking or pollution etc. as well as natural degradation over time. I only read a couple of bits about it at the time so by no means an expert and this could just...

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    I was wondering whether this was due to them getting messages out to the key business leaders prior to a mass announcement that could cause panic/major questions for them. I am probably wrong and it'll just be to announce that we really really need to wash our hands

    [Football] The Guardian and EPL 2 ?

    Seems a bit odd. I thought that it was already something like the 5th most watched league? I gave up reading part way through, mainly because I thought it was awful. For me it is more a case of more money needing to go to the Football League (as a whole) than to bring more clubs in to the...

    [Technology] Gantt Charts

    There are loads of templates online that are for Excel/Powerpoint if you want to do it in there? I have reviewed a few tools lately as they have been trying to bring on some free applications but most of the free ones have been a bit naff and nothing better than an Excel template anyway!

    [Drinking] Buying a beer for a mate who's running late.....

    Very much this. Round my parts we leave it 'in the pipes' for them. Or, just get the pint in and leave it on the table. If it is warm and a bit flat then they were much later than they said they would be and it's their own fault

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    I've had SSN on all day and they have shown the interview a few times. For me the key thing is that he says that their window is 95% done at the beginning. Only after that does he say about the ins and outs. You could also argue that Lamptey is not first team to him so isn't fully considered...

    [Football] UEFA Euro 2020

    Checked mine this morning and same result. Looks like I will have to hope that my company has a box at Wembley for one of the matches and choose to take me (very unlikely)
