    [Football] Football. In the olden (but not that olden) days

    I started following football properly in my early teens. Started supporting Albion aged 12 in 2000, then the next 10 years were spent going anywhere we were playing as often as possible. My tactic was always, bus to Bromley south station, train to Victoria, walk around the corner and get the...

    [Football] How to make the Carabao Cup more exciting

    At random points during the game a klazon sounds (chance for sponsorship there straight away. 'oh, it's the John Smiths klazon') At this stage the ends the teams are attacking immediately swap. The 'keepers make a mad dash to get to the other end and a brilliant attack turns into panicked...

    [Football] Hugo Lloris - arrested for alleged drink driving

    I guess so but someone that is ignorant of our law may well be ignorant of it in their own country. My main point was the affording of a taxi. I don;t think it has anything to do with it. If people are ignorant/dicks then their bank balance doesn't matter

    [Football] Hugo Lloris - arrested for alleged drink driving

    Some people don't care, some people don't realise they are over the limit as don't understand legal limits properly. I would assume that after one pint I would be OK to drive but I don't know for sure so tend to not drink at all Being able to afford a taxi doesn't come in to it

    [Albion] Rare nice comments in a sea of media coverage about Man U

    I find all this 'why no mention of us' a bit cringe worthy. We only have to go back a few years to when we would never be mentioned at all, but even all the Sky Sports headlines have how Brighton 'blitzed' United. BBC There have been plenty of mentions of us, I only had TalkSport on for 5...

    [News] thunderstorms and rain anywhere?

    Still here and still no storm. It threatened it just now. There was a rumble of thunder following by the most pathetic 2 seconds of drizzle that made me think I had been spat on by the guy I was talking to. Then - nothing

    [Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins Feyenoord

    Very much doubt it. I lived there until I was 18 and my Mum still does. There are no hotels in Biggin Hill and he doesn’t strike me as the type to sleep outside

    [Drinking] Pre World cup SEMI FINAL drinking thread

    It did - and how! Wife went to leave work and a guy was on top of the car park threatening to jump so she couldn't leave. Youngest took ages to go to sleep and was crying away so missed a chunk of the first half. Got to the pub 5 mins in to Extra time - wish I hadn't bothered

    Mate at works brother used to play Non League. he has an agent and has just signed for a club in league 1. Quite a few have them apparently. I questioned when I heard that his agent had been round all weekend. I would assume that the Agents use a scatter gun approach knowing that they won't...

    [Football] Russia 2018 WC unfounded fears

    Exactly this. i think there has been a very strong message that people are to behave and show Russia off. It is a lot more damaging to the wests perception of Russia if it is the tournament with the least trouble for a long time. Papers like the Sun would have been desperate for some juicy...
