    [Politics] Trump makes the main board but Johnson doesn't.

    Hi Watford, I'll reply. Politically I'm very similar to you, I believe from reading your posts. We're usually on the same side of an argument. I don't see Covid as a political issue however. I think any government would have struggled whatever its hue. Right up to the Cummings incident I'm not...

    [Football] Proposed salary cap for Leagues One & Two

    I don't understand why this is needed or should be done. Forces relegated clubs to ditch players they can otherwise afford, creates a bigger gulf with the championship (and between leagues 1 and 2) will encourage more loans and third party ownerships, will mean that clubs generating lots of...

    [Albion] Assuming a limited capacity in the future how should the club decide who goes?

    I know, thank you for including it, but the NSC collective appear to be treating it as one of the comedy options :lolol:. When presented with the otherwise identical 'all STH' or 'all sth and members', 5 times as many ignored the members. Considering that STH will get refunds if they aren't...

    [Albion] How much better are we, one year on?

    Progress suggests building on the existing foundations - something we would have looked for if Hughton was still in charge - whereas Potter has done something of a refresh and restart, with new players and a different style, so standing still (if it is that) is a pretty fine outcome. Ryan Dunk...

    [Albion] Assuming a limited capacity in the future how should the club decide who goes?

    Does anyone realise that members exist? Those of us who pay every year to get priority on matchday tickets, money which me and my family paid in June despite all the uncertainty? Seems everyone wants the lottery to be a closed shop of STH's. It would be pretty shite to buy our memberships and...

    [Albion] Still think we’re safe?

    You were talking boll*cks mate, that's what it was :lolol: :thumbsup:

    [Albion] Still think we’re safe?

    Really? I remember great escapes under Gritt and Slade, staying up in tough situations under McGhee, Poyet and Hughton three times, and hopefully again under Potter - but I'm struggling to think of any seasons where we fell to relegation from a good position - where we "finished in bottom 3...

    [Football] Abu Dhabi Europe ban lifted

    And to all of us, although I'd venture its more that we're not worried about him buggering of and leaving us in debt, or asset stripping or any of those things that dodgy rich owners can do and which we're well experienced with. But otherwise, and I'm in agreement here, what you're really...

    [Albion] Premier League: your feelings after 3 years?

    Enjoying it. I think the Premier League is on the cusp of a golden era, with depth at the top level. For ages we had United, Liverpool, Arsenal, then Chelsea joined them to make a big 4, which became a big 6 and now we have Wolves and Leicester settling in as top sides, Everton may finally be...

    [Football] Abu Dhabi Europe ban lifted

    I have to agree that I dislike FFP in its current form. At the moment it's based around spending what you raise through gate receipts, media deals, sponsorships and merchandise - it's a system designed to keep the rich and famous winning and everyone else making up the numbers. City could never...

    [Albion] Tonight's Game v Man City Is Free-To-Air On PICK / Freeview Channel 11

    Hope everyone enjoyed it. I've only watched one Brighton v Man City game since we've been in the premier league and that was when I was in the stadium. Too painful otherwise to watch, they're too good

    [Albion] Which players aren’t good enough for the Graham Potter revolution?

    How do you mean? I've been noticing dodgy first touches from Propper for a good couple of seasons. Yeah, the fact that the opposition scored directly from one of his dodgy touches means that it's being highlighted today, but it can't escape the fact that it's been noticed for a long time.

    [Albion] Which players aren’t good enough for the Graham Potter revolution?

    Obviously the answer is Propper. He doesn't have a reliable first touch. Last night may have shown that in stark focus, but its been clear for ages that his first touch is unreliable , and you have to have that to play centre-mid in a Potter team. Great player in so many facets of the game, but...

    Trump

    Why on earth would he split the Democrat vote? Have you read his political views?

    [Help] Tell Me Where To Move To?

    That last pic..... Reminds me again how idyllic lockdown was. End of April we went surfing at Gwithian Towans, counted 9 other surfers on the entire St Ives bay from Hayle to Godrevy, plus 3 our 4 dog walkers, just stunning to have that huge beautiful expanse to ourselves. Again in May half...

    [Help] Tell Me Where To Move To?

    Rainy, yep, windy, yep - but there's no such thing as a bad weather, just the wrong coat - and when the sun shines there is nowhere better in England. Everywhere in the whole world is equally far from everywhere else in the world. What you actually mean is Cornwall is far from loads of people...

    [Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.

    Well, all of us premier league teams are there for a reason and it usually starts with a huge injection of cash. They are a breath of fresh air, just like Leicester, as the whole Top 6 monopoly was getting stale.

    [Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.

    White will play for us next season, but if he takes to the Premier league like he has done to the championship, he'll be off to a big - time club in the summer

    [Help] Tell Me Where To Move To?

    Well, other places are a long way from Cornwall, that's true, but all the rest of Cornwall is nearby to your house :thumbsup: In all seriousness, I do miss going to the Amex more than once or twice a season, and it is a long old haul to Sussex, but it really is a wonderful wonderful place to live.

    Cornwall. I'm not quite sure why anyone would want to live anywhere else.
