    [Football] Dan Burn signs new deal

    That's very good news. Maybe not our number 1 priority, but certainly deserving of a new contract.

    [Albion] Does Potter really believe the team doesn’t need strengthening?

    Politically it's wise to not put the club under pressure, or alert selling clubs as to our desperate need for additions this window. There is no way he can be looking at this squad, especially the striking options, and believe we don't need anything.

    [Albion] "Brighton are not doing as well under Potter as they were under Hughton" - oh yes we are!

    Saturday looked incredibly familiar, with no-one getting anywhere near our lone striker for the best part of an hour. Ali J was hopeless, Trossard flitted in and mostly out of the game, and Maupay had no-one anywhere near him, with the midfield barely getting over the halfway line for a lot of...

    [Albion] "Brighton are not doing as well under Potter as they were under Hughton" - oh yes we are!

    But not always. Saturday was absolutely no better to watch whatsoever! We stank, but hung in there, hoping to only stay a goal down. Miraculously we did stay just 1 goal down, and hoped to nick a point in teh last 15 mins, which we failed to do. We can pretend it was better to watch, but we...

    [Albion] "Brighton are not doing as well under Potter as they were under Hughton" - oh yes we are!

    Did you go to Everton on Saturday? Overall, it's better football, yes, but let's keep a perspective. It's not infinitely better, as there are still performances in there that look exactly the same.

    [Film] Politician of the Decade

    Don't like the bloke, but depending on your criteria, it's probably Farage. He's probably been the most influential, and the politician most people would name from this decade, when looking back in 20 years.

    [Cricket] New Zealand v England 2nd Test

    Maybe, but having followed Brighton for 40 years now, attending over 1,000 games, my trips to sporting events do not take that into account too much, or I may well have stopped going a long time ago. You go to that many Brighton games over that long a period by having the capacity to enjoy the...

    [Food] Do you stand or sit when wiping your behind after doing a poo?

    I thought standing was the obvious answer, but at the moment we're out-numbered. Next we'll have people saying they scrunch the toilet paper rather than folding it, before wiping.

    [Cricket] New Zealand v England 2nd Test

    And can I just say, what a marvellous experience it was. The place felt like a festival week, at one of the village grounds. The walk up, and entrance was folding tables, and a temporary little portable barrier. It was like walking up to a Sunday morning boot fair. But lounging around on the...

    Agreed. Sorry, I misread your point.

    [Albion] Real feelings about Utd game

    Ah, the old re-writing of history, eh? I don't seem to remember our setup being "perfect for Man Utd" when they played down here. How did those games go. Actually, they were pretty lucky to beat us at their place in Year 1, as it was a rather unlucky deflection that settled the game, as I...

    [Football] Ashley Barnes: Burnley forward signs new contract to 2022

    Or has had enough of all the **** that comes with the job. We all just automatically assume that everyone loves the job, and is dying to get back, but if I was 60, decent wedge in the bank, and I have had yet another successful job done turn into being chucked out, I would be ready to walk...

    [Football] Ashley Barnes: Burnley forward signs new contract to 2022

    Congratulations Ashley. Was treated ridiculously harsh by sections of the Albion "faithful" and having left us, he's made himself a Premier League fixture at a club who are themselves a Premier league fixture. Very happy for the bloke, who was a quality player for us, played out of position on...

    [Albion] Our squad depth is utterly incredible right now

    When we are sticking a 6ft 7ins centre back at left back, we clearly have a lack of true left backs. Absolutely love Dan Burn, and he's doing an admirable job there, but he's covering a problem area.

    [Albion] Our squad depth is utterly incredible right now

    We have great depth in places, but are painfully thin at centre forward and full-back. That need addressing, or we are taking a big risk.

    [Albion] Richard Keogh

    LOL, that's actually my standard response when I get those cold calls. "Hello, we are ringing about an accident that you were in recently, that wasn't your fault." "Nah, sorry, don't know the one you mean. I was in an accident recently, but ...." "Yes sir, that's the one we are calling you...

    [Albion] Richard Keogh

    Wouldn't bet on it. They haven't done this in hurry, they've taken their time, during which they would have either: 1. Consulted their own legal team who with full details of the case (which we don't have) have been able to construct a solid Gross Misconduct charge that will not get easily...
