    British expats face tax credits ban as Cameron seeks EU compromise

    Not necessarily true. Crown pensions like Armed Forces and Civil Service can only be taxed in the UK no matter where you live, so anyone retiring overseas with a crown pension is still paying all of their income tax to HMRC.

    [Albion] Hull: all-ticket, no pay on the day

Tickets on matchday can be bought online (until an hour before kick-off and printed...

    Crowd was 1500. Can't imagine there were any visiting fans unless they originated from Vladivostok!

    Long Distance Games

    Wow! Plymouth v Carlisle has nothing on this. Perhaps we should even stop complaining about Middlesbrough away for the season finalé two years in a row with a lunchtime kick-off. This article from La Marca is so good, I've translated the important bits into English for you! Imagine for a...

    Sarah Watts - a real Albion hero RIP

    RIP Sarah. She is one of the reasons for my passion for all things BHAFC. When I was a kid, Brighton played away to Grimsby where I was living at the timr and she met me outside the ground and made sure I was ok. She also persuaded the police to allow me to walk home just over the road instead...

    Football violence sinks to a new low

    A player has been killed in Argentina after being hit by a brick thrown from the crowd. A very sad day indeed. I have tidied up Google's poor translation! La Marca Argentine ultras have claimed a life. This time the hooligans of Chacarita, one of the most violent groups in Argentine football...
