That's me corrected then!

Should it be PV then Stoke are also at home so it may well be a Sunday game.

Cadiz - fat Finger Syndrome on your date there, 1966. Always played with a smile on his face, very sporting even to the point of congratulating Gordon Banks who had just saved one of his fierce shots. (Or maybe that was Alex Stepney in the Euro Cup Final, probably even both!)

I took two g'kids today, who had only seen friendlies before. They thoroughly enjoyed the view & atmosphere of WSU. Really good day.

Also the Man City boss looks a bit Dave Allen'ish.

It's a times like this I'm glad Brett Mendoza no longer posts on NSC!

It must be sad for you, David, to have just found this. Reading through the many pages you will find that the Roy you knew was the same great character we all knew. He didn't change and that's probably why he's not with us now, because he didn't want his life compromised by the type of things...

I've not but I'll try & give it a go. From local refs I know, they do seem very protective of each other and I think it's fine to defend a ref because he can only give things as he sees it so it shouldn't be a case of telling the ref he's wrong but helping him to a more informed decision. I...

I'd like to think that fringe players, if given the chance, will really relish it. Sadly, and not just with Albion, it's not always the case.

I collected my extras yesterday. I predict carnage on Saturday as loads will be collecting tickets, long queues and possibly blowing a hoolie with rain. Print at home seems a good option, if you can.

Refs have to 'retire' at an early age because of the physical demands yet their knowledge & experience then goes to waste. Why can't these be used as the 'ref in the stand' with access to screens? they can then be miked up to the onfield ref to act as 'assitance' with the onfield ref still...

Ignorance is no excuse as the travel conditions have been clearly stated and hence the low ticket price. As for people 'opting out', the whole travel scheme costs a fortune and was one of the conditions on building the stadium. If people opted out then the cost to the club would remain much the...

It is important to come off the A27 and take Coldean Lane, rather than the bypass, to get into the Stanmer park slip road and the Uni car parks. Stay on the bypass and you'll miss that slip road.

What became of that young ref & linesman from the Withdean debacle?

Looked like gus was sulking against Villa, just sat back in the dug-out and did little even though only a goal down.

There had been big crowds & outbreaks of trouble (especially with London clubs) and fences were all the rage with the government. Albion may well have been warned and most grounds eventually had fences. Horrible things and, of course, death traps as shown at Hillsborough. We could also have...

The FA Cup tie may be a better indicator of who may be on the way out and who may not want to be cup tied? Incidentally, does a non-playing sub become cup tied?

Still, we've had all this before with refs & B'muff. Who could ever forget that last min pen at Withdean when arms were raised outside the penalty area?

I think the stadium caterers are sponsoring this judging by how hard it is to get beers in bars at the end of the game.

One of my fav Goldstone games. Kit Napier & John Templeman with B'muff in the North and over 30,000. Atmosphere was electric.
