    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Unbelievable that someone could be so delusional to spend over an hour or so writing that prediction for Leeds next season. It will be fun reposting that each time they fail.

    [Football] Saudi consortium to take over Newcastle

    Toon fans whining and looking to blame someone: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53662771 What is there to explain to these poor souls? That the FA couldn't determine who would be in charge and the Saudis refused to clarify? Oh and that they couldn't distance their murderous zero human...

    [Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

    If we do singe anyone they will have to fit the updated Albion singing criteria - Champions league experience and respective League champion winner.

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    His logic = 2 People looking at buying a house, 1 offers £300k because that's all they can afford, the other offers £310k because he has more money. The vendor sells to the first person because he realised he couldn't afford any more and felt that hardball approach put him under pressure to...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Ah I remember the good old days when we would spend weeks on threads slagging off that feral lot up the road but now it seems we have a new breed of brain dead morons to focus on! The PL is filling up with teams who are proving increasingly easy to dislike - Palace, Leeds, Newcastle, Villa...

    [Albion] How Many Albion Games Have You Seen?

    First match in the late 70s and been a regular ever since bar when I was away in the Navy 92-97 so I estimate 800+. My Dad has been going since the late 40s when football resumed after the war and rarely misses home matches so well in excess of 1000+ and I doubt there are many alive that have...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Bielsa did not make Ben White the player he is today, Ben White made himself that player by using all the experience he had gained from his years being nurtured and trained at Brighton in a top class environment including being sent out on loan to clubs at a lower level to further his...

    [Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.

    With White now seemingly more suited to the defensive midfielder role I see him as a direct replacement for Stephens - a younger, fitter, hungrier and more valuable player who has proved himself at a high level now has the chance to take it a stage further....at Brighton.

    [Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.

    What I find truly funny is that it feels like that with absolutely no effort on our part at all we have mugged Leeds off for a player. The reality of course is that he has always been our player and will continue to be so next season but anyway I look at it Leeds are the losers in this scenario...

    [Football] Abu Dhabi Europe ban lifted

    Cheats prosper. So City far from being innocent and found not guilty have basically got away with fraud on the basis of happened too long ago. And they didn't cooperate with the investigation. Add that to the £49 million fine in 2014 for the same thing and it must make City fans so proud. Seeing...

    [Football] I hope this lot are very wrong!

    It seems they all place far too much emphasis on whether a manager has experience in the PL! I don't think you need any experience in the PL. A good manager should be able to adapt to any league and Potter has managed successfully in the highest level in a different country plus has a masters...

    [Football] Guendouzi to Maupay: "I earn more than you ever will"

    His comment is on a par with, 'Don't you know who I am?'. I can't be too harsh on the boy as he's only 21, he may look back in years to come and realise what a dick he was..or he may stay being a dick

    I get what you are saying and I've no doubt that their draconian measures had some effect but the way their infection and death rates just suddenly dropped off a cliff within a few days just doesn't hold up to scrutiny or could be possible given how this disease spreads. There are lots of...

    [Football] x2 Sky Sports day passes for al STH

    I didn't get codes for the Arsenal match as I'm still showing in the same household as my ex-wife, probably due to having the kids linked on both ticketing accounts. Rang the club up and a very helpful lady sorted it out whilst I was on the phone and I got emailed the code minutes later. My Sky...

    [Albion] Maupay challenge on keeper.

    Absolutely this. An innocuous nudge and it was the keepers desire to remain in the area and place his feet in an unnatural landing position that caused the injury. It wasn't even a particularly physical challenge, it certainly wasn't a barge or rugby tackle.

    Unfortunately your stats are flawed as you seem to accept and believe the figures coming out of China & Russia, there are also plenty of other countries either faking or simply unable to correctly measure their death rates by Covid. The data you are using is fundamentally flawed. I don't...
