    [Albion] The “Light show”

    My 9 year old daughter absolutely loved tonight. She laughed, giggled, celebrated, got stressed, annoyed, nervous and then relieved within the space of 2 hours. It was one of the few times that we've been able to enjoy an evening game without having to think about getting home at a...

    [Misc] Older Dads

    I was 36 and 41 when I had my kids. Just do as you do. No one really bats an eyelid. Certainly no stigma attached to it . And even if there is I'm of an age where I couldn't give a crap what others think anyway. Enjoy being a dad again. Although the night feeds and lack of sleep was...

    A Time To Kill The Lincoln Lawyer Devils Advocate. Matthew McConaughey is in a few of my favourites films thinking about it. And possibly a very underrated actor...

    [Albion] Anthony Taylor

    I saw it on a mates dodgy riverside viewing point. We don't know what was said but the venom in the way Dunk shouted at him certainly wasn't nice. In a modern day time when PGMOL and respect are the modus operandi, doing that is just stupid and he better bloody learn from it😡

    [Albion] The Albion Injury 11

    That really is grim reading isn't it?😕 We won 5/6 in our start to the season. Imagine where we could be now? All if's and but's......but damn.

    [Misc] How much did your last MOT cost you in total

    Last one cost me £635. Full exhaust from downpipe to back needed including cat. One before cost almost £1k. Complete change of discs and pads and a bucket load on a boost leak causing engine management lights aplenty. It's 17 years old. We've just remortgaged😬 and borrowed a bit more to get me...

    [Finance] Do you personally want interest rates (the base rate) to go up, down or stay the same?

    My current mortgage deal expires on Jan 1st. It's going to go up about £400 a month. Had the surveyor round this morning for the new one. If they go down again once I sign I'm going to be royally pissed. I'm skint enough as it is without the rise I'm looking at thanks. Only 25 years to go😖

    [Politics] spring fall forwards back - change the current system ? chronometer gubbins

    I get up at 5am for a 6am start at work and usually get home at around 18.15 so it doesn't make the foggiest of differences to me. It's fugging dark no matter what. We are currently testing our daughter leaving school on her own to meet us at longer stretches on her journey until we know she's...

    [Food] Crunch or smooth Peanut Butter?

    Peanut butter and jam sandwiches it has to be smooth. On toast with an inch of butter mixed it has to be smooth too. Smooth all the way for me.

    [Misc] I’ve written a BOOK

    Mine arrived today. Read the first chapter this evening and enjoyed so far. I'm reading it in Kevin's voice though for some reason which is irritating.

    [Albion] Olympique de Marseille vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Love seeing my daughter on it again in the clips of the home game. Proud dad moment! I'm so nervous for this. My stomach is in knots and I feel a bit shaky. Almost like when Mrs Spongy went into labour with our kids. Wish I was there. I had the points and could have found the money but life's...

    [Misc] I’ve written a BOOK

    I am very much a fan and have been a regular listener since the start of the POF podcast. And because of that I've actually just bought my first ever book. At the age of 44. I've read plenty, just never bought my own one before. Looking forward to it.

    [Albion] Excited?

    My stomach is knotted to hell. Getting the 17.33 train from HSK. Need to drop Ms Spongy at the north reception for 18.30 to do her mascot thing and she'll be chaperoned back to her seat after so I'm at a loose end! Haven't been this nervous for a game since the 2nd leg Vs Weds🤢

    [Albion] Excited?

    Mine reared up in my foot yesterday. I've doubled up anti inflammatories and drunk so much water I feel sick. Also taken so much colchicine I'm fully expecting diarrhoea soon but there's no way I'm missing this and having a few beers. Thankfully it seems to be subsiding and I only have a...
