    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest *** Official Match Thread ***

    Gilmour aside, frustratingly this is probably the XI we should have picked for the first leg.

    [Travel] Reflections on Rome

    I did Marseille, Ajax and Rome. Rome was bottom of the pile for me - not just because of the result.

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    You’re the only one who has raised that bizarre example. Again, you’ve tagged me in a post about a racist remark, that I had no part of being involved in. I’m asking you again to amend that post to reflect that. Nothing else.

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    Please don’t lump me in with any posts that contain accusations of making racist comments, because I had absolutely no part in that. In fact, I’d ask you to edit that post immediately because that is something I’m not standing for at all and won’t hesitate to take further. I also didn’t say...

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    So you’re telling me that my own experience of things doesn’t have any weight all, yet if we go and talk to your neighbour then they will tell us everything that has happened before, and that personal experience will be absolutely representative of the whole picture? Right. Makes total sense.

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    That’s absolutely not what I said at all, but you’re seemingly incapable of having a nuanced conversation. I said what you’d described didn’t tally with my own experience, not a broad brush statement that it didn’t happen. I was more challenging your assertion that we were totally blind to...

    [Albion] Will people bother going to the home tie next week?

    I will not be, I’ve reluctantly put my ticket on the exchange. I’ve just got back from the away leg, but living in the North East, it is another £300ish expense for a trip down next Thursday. Balanced against the likely outcome, I’m willing to forgo the possibility of a 5-0 win.

    [Albion] Enciso Was awful

    Less than a month ago. We’ve kept 3 clean sheets this calendar year. For comparison, Liverpool have 4 in that period and Manchester City 5 (both of whom have played a couple more games than us).

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    I’ve followed Brighton to virtually every town and city we’ve ever played in, but I’ve never witnessed anything like the behaviour from fans in Italy. I’ve never sat in a bar in England and had a group of opposition fans dressed in black and carrying moped helmets just standing outside trying...

    [Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

    Marseille was several times louder than last night. Having done that one, I found Roma quite disappointing by comparison.

    [Drinking] Where are we going to hang out in Rome?

    We were just having this discussion within our group. For Thursday, we're definitely going to be somewhere not too far from where the buses leave so that we can get on one fairly quickly, given the small number of turnstiles and apparently extensive searches/ID checks.

    [Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

    Your comment about him playing like he doesn’t want to get another injury absolutely sums it up for me. I’m gutted it hasn’t worked out for him here, but if he was consistently in-form and consistently fit then he’d never have been an option to come here. It was a gamble that I was very keen...

    [Albion] Roma seats available for the home leg

    Does the ticket exchange work as normal do we know? I bought my ST seat for the home leg but can’t go now.

    [Albion] Roma tickets - number remaining tier to tier

    They 100% let people who’d missed the pre-reg deadline for Ajax do so afterwards, with the proviso that they would be one tier lower than their natural position. Seems poor form if they didn’t do the same here.

    [Humour] The Official Dad's (of toddlers) thread

    My two are 7 and 4 (one of each). My daughter, who is the eldest, was and is an absolute dream to parent. She slept well as a baby, she isn't fussy with food, she's open minded to new activities/days out etc and is an absolute stickler for the rules. My son, on the other hand, is an absolute...

    RIP. That's very sad news indeed.

    [Albion] Are you going to Rome? + ticket allocation / purchase discussion!

    Comfortably into Tier 1 in the end, which is a bonus. I'm on 295 and thought I'd be right on the borderline between the Tiers, as per Ajax away.

    [Albion] Are you going to Rome? + ticket allocation / purchase discussion!

    I reckon an announcement today, with Tier 1 sales tomorrow and Tier 2 sales Friday. It will be interesting to see how wide the range is for Tier 2 eligibility. I thought it was a bit too wide for Ajax away.

    [Albion] Are you going to Rome? + ticket allocation / purchase discussion!

    I had a couple of Tier 1 friends that missed the registration deadline for Ajax away. The club allowed them to register late, but dropped them back into Tier 2 for purchasing.
