    Police Community Support Officers.

    Oh well, I suppose it is up to me to counter the arguments so far and say that my contacts with PCSO's have been positive. Of course we would like to have more Bobbies on the beat, in an ideal World, but they are expensive and the policing budget can only go so far. A few months ago there was...

    What minor things annoy you

    Because it looks like we might sign noone when the transfer window opens, rather than the usual no one!

    Brighton on Football Focus today

    It bugs me too, it isn't as if he went from obscurity at Preston straight to all-conquering Liverpool, if the Albion hadn't given him a chance his career would have amounted to little more than appearances at North End and Southend...if ever there was a case for showing the dangers of selective...

    Team You Would Like To See Play Leyton Orient Away( include new signings)

    Blimey, this strikes me as a little harsh...to say a keeper has made only a couple of mistakes over almost half a season, how many have outfield players made in comparison...if he made any less he wouldn't be playing for the Albion but somewhere like Barcelona or Inter Milan!!!

    Replica Watches - yay nor nay?

    Some of us can afford but have taste or can't see the point of strapping an item worth several thousand pounds to their wrist.

    Biggest home gate since?

    I can't think of any, the Bristol Rovers game mentioned above was just below 20k...in a season where following relegation our gates weren't brilliant early on but picked up towards the end of the season.

    Brighton on Football Focus today

    They mentioned the interview with Gus, in a review of Football Focus, on the news this morning. Didn't mention Falmer though, will be interesting to hear the pundits opinions on what is going on at Falmer and the Albion, I wonder if Lawro (if he is on the programme) will actually manage to...

    How many inches have you got?

    We have only had about an inch in GL1, but I have just looked on the weather radar and there is more on the way, should hit in an hour or so.

    What's the descriptive word for snow?

    Don't people talk about a big dump of snow...to suggest that it has just dropped out of the sky, as if by magic, and covered everything in a big white coat!

    Carlos Tevez -Professional or mercenary?

    I don't think there are many players towards the top end of the Premiership who play football for the love of the game, it is a job just like any other, they will do anything to maximise their earnings...even if that means joining Chelsea or Man City purely for the money!

    RIP Captain Beefheart

    American musician and painter Don Van Vliet, best known by the stage name Captain Beefheart, has died aged 69. Van Vliet's death in California, from complications from multiple sclerosis, was announced by the Michael Werner Gallery in New York. Van Vliet was "one of the most original recording...

    Heavy snow in BN1 now

    They will be a lot harder to spot in the snow...wool, the perfect camouflage!

    Replica Watches - yay nor nay?

    OK, my left wrist is home to one of these:

    Ian Holloway is a legend!

    People like Holloway should be running FIFA, it would be a little chaotic at times and you might not be sure what was going to happen...but you sure as hell wouldn't get a World Cup Finals anywhere as stupid as Qatar!

    Heavy snow in BN1 now

    Saw reporting from Cardiff on News 24 around lunch time, it looked like carnage, we are only about 50 miles away as the crow flies and there is barely a dusting here.

    Moving the World Cup

    Yup, looks like the climactic considerations weren't....err, considered...when the bids were looked at. The longer this goes on the more it stinks, I think it is time for Panorama to get to work and expose the whole voting and bidding shambles...then maybe the whole thing can get challenged in...

    Moving the World Cup

    Absolutely, and I wouldn't mind betting that whoever held the voting rights for FIFA also voted for Qatar...got his priorities wrong didn't he, chump!

    Whats the furthest you've travelled to a game that was called off?

    From North London to Victoria to catch a train for a home game in about 87, think it might have been against Reading, there had been heavy snowfall and the game was postponed...there were signs on the departure boards to say the game was off.

    Obscure places known only because of their football teams

    Lets be honest here, how many Albion fans could point out exactly where Barnsley, Tranmere and Middlesborough are on a map...to many they are just places somewhere up north, as the likes of Brighton, Southend and Bournemouth are just somewhere down south to your average northerner...mind you...
