    I think that it might also have been the case in our first few EPL seasons...

    [Albion] The growing awareness of the Albion around the globe

    You're absolutely right - the regular fans need looking after and I think, in the main, the club do recognise that. However, it's bloody lovely for the rest of us to no longer be asked if we support another, "bigger" Premier League club!

    [Albion] The growing awareness of the Albion around the globe

    I am English and they were friendly - maybe it's just my winning and charming personality?

    [Albion] The growing awareness of the Albion around the globe

    Lovely place, Triggaar - you should nip over for a break. I was in heaven in the local pubs - wall-to-wall sports on TV, great beer, friendly locals.

    [Football] Championship/League One & Two End of Season Thread

    Remember some spotty oiks singing "We'll never play you again" at us after they won 5-1 in 2005. Turns out they might have been right!

    [Albion] The growing awareness of the Albion around the globe

    I have just come back from a language week with my Austrian school in Malahide and was blown away with just how much the locals knew about the Seagulls and just how praiseworthy they were. All the football fans I spoke to were appreciative of our style of play and thought that Evan Ferguson was...

    [Albion] What is your favourite Albion podcast?

    I think The Football Ramble has struggled since introducing new presenters/guests - some of whom have worked better than others - and lost a bit of its identity. Unless Markus is presenting and Luke and/or Vish are guests, I give it a swerve. Quickly Kevin is coming back for a new series in the...

    [Albion] Club shop

    It's all just a bit frustrating - we've got a good sized shop (better than many other "bigger" clubs in Europe) and people willing to buy but we just consistently can't get the stock of kit and training kit. My kids wouldn't be happy but I'd be fine if we moved to another manufacturer.

    [Football] My first trip to Wembley

    Gary Shaw was banging them in for Villa's first team by then? You might be older than you think! My first visit was a schoolboys international v Holland - I reckon it was 82 or 83.

    [Football] Anyone remember Spencer Trethewy?

    I seem to remember him being on the Terry Wogan chat show. He has got Farnborough going well in National South.

    [Albion] Ref for Sunday

    Not a fan but we have a 100% record with him both in the FA Cup and against Man Utd.

    [Football] Mic Les Referées

    I remember that infamous clip of Tony Adams calling David Elleray an "f###in cheat" at Millwall. Apparently, the Arsenal players didn't even know he was mic'd up!

    [Football] Mic Les Referées

    Not sure all Premier League referees grasp the importance of or even agree with the last thing Monsieur l'Arbitre said.

    [Albion] Club shop

    Having not found a home shirt for my kids on my recent visit, it reinforced my wish that the club would allow the kit to be sold elsewhere (kitbag, geomix here in Austria etc.). Random custom charges has made ordering from the UK a thing of the past...

    [Albion] Club shop

    You've answered the point from timbha - thanks! I was in the club shop for the Arsenal game - there were no home shirts. Somebody is to blame for this and I'm going to blame Nike!

    Would be quite happy if we binned Nike off for failing to supply home kit this season. Would prefer a more reliable kit manufacturer.

    [Football] My (accidental) pilgrimage to Sassuolo

    That's all I've got for you - more people did turn up eventually (12,000 crowd)! I quite liked the mixed nature of the stand - reminded me of the old Fulham neutral end. Sorry about Inter, Sepulveda - not overjoyed about his choice either. My only parenting goal was for my kids to support...

    [Football] My (accidental) pilgrimage to Sassuolo

    I was at Lake Garda last week for a short break with the family and some friends. We had planned the trip around a game at the San Siro as my eldest's second team is Inter. Got to see them play against Fiorentina on the Saturday night. Top tier in the main stand - 14 euros each! Amazing view of...

    [Travel] Scotland, west coast and/or islands

    Our family had a brilliant week on Mull a few years ago. Tobermory is a lovely place with quite a lot going on, Iona is an amazing place, Fingal's cave is a great trip and Ulva is also a lovely little island which is easily reachable. So wild and unspoilt - loved it. Arran is also a super...
