    [Albion] Do you remember your first Albion AWAY Cup game

    Mine was Liverpool away on a Sunday, 1983 FA Cup run. We won I believe. First time Liverpool ever played on a Sunday, Phil Neal was made captain 'cos it was his birthday and he missed a penalty. It wasn't on the TV. My mate drove us up in his car and he got his nose broken by an unhappy...

    [Help] Have we been ripped off?

    If it helps: I'm having all the gutters and downpipes replaced in my detached 4 bed house, by a reputable builder (who coincidentally lives 2 doors away from me). Total quoted cost £700. He's recently built his own extension and replaced his own gutters so he knows how much work it'll take.

    [Politics] Do you LOVE the Daily Mail?

    I disagree. Their associated articles (eg page 152) support taking the knee and argue that it should be continued. It's a silly sensationalist headline though.
