I have just received a letter from the local Council Election Office stating I made multiple votes at the recent local elections. Utter nonsense. I drew a box on the ballot paper and wrote “none of the above” next to the box. I then ticked the box.

So 63% of posters on NSC don’t want GP. That’s not the same as 63% of all Brighton fans don’t want GP. Perhaps PB could hold a proper poll as he organised for safe standing. NSC is just a forum for posters brave enough to post an opinion and in the main ignore the childish and insulting...

😁 Wish I was on a multimillion pay off from Chelsea. Let’s just stick to the facts. NSC speaks for all fans! North standers aren’t happy with thie atmosphere at the Amex. They lioved the away experience at Marseille, Amsterdam, Athens and Rome where supporters had multiple drums, podiums and...

For what it’s worth, GP had our team performing well, hence Chelsea poaching him. If RDZ is better than GP why don’t Chelsea want him?

Was RDZ really better? With GP we were better defensively. We changed formations several times during each match. RDZ is a one trick pony. Need to bear in mind it took 2 years for GP to transition the team from CH’s tactics. Once GP had his “own team” we played good football and scored lots of...

We need to hire the best coach available who will work with and develop our young players before we sell them in accordance with TB’s model for sustainability. If the best coach available is GP then we should welcome him back as a prodigal son. GP is much better than Martin, Rosenior, Fariola...

If we want to improve the atmosphere in the north stand then move the away supporters to the north stand.

North West would be good next to the northstanders. Would create a good atmosphere. Away fans would be out of sight of TV cameras.

It's now the Big 8, not the Big 6 if you include Villa and Newcastle, both with mega rich owners.

Punching above our weight, finishing top 10 in the PL and occasionally competing in Europe is our ceiling bearing in mind we are competing against mega rich clubs who money launder and flout FFP rules. In the last 20 years we have won as many major trophies as Spurs, Newcastle, Villa, Everton...

We could do what Portsmouth tried to do! Ended up bankrupt didn’t they?

If we had bought several more players as well as Barco, would that guarantee taking us to the next level? Anyway the club is approx £400m in debt. Compare that to Man Utd who are £1bn in debt with an income of at least 5 times ours. It seems easy for some fans to want to spend someone else’s...

How much would it cost TB to take the Albion to the next level? Does TB have the multi billion pounds needed to compete with the mega rich clubs? Some fans on this site need a reality check.

Not sure he has had a better offer yet but strongly believe TB and PB decided It was time for RDZ to move on. TB won’t break his model. He doesn’t have the wealth to sign the players that go to mega rich clubs. RDZ has ambitions to challenge for league and cup titles. Albion might win a cup if...

True, but coaches need to adapt tactics when plan A has been found out by tactical analysts working for competing clubs. De Zerbi and Bielsa only have one way of playing. The same can be said of Postecoglou at Spurs.

De Zerbi and Bielsa. Both innovative managers who have made great tactical improvements to the game. Like football clubs, they have their ceilings. Leeds kept Bielsa for one season too long and got relegated. TB and PB are not making the same mistake. Just reflect on our results so far in 2024.

I don't know whether you have booked your trip to Florence yet for this summer, but if you have bear in mind it will be packed. As mentioned on another post, you will difinately need to prebook visits to the Uffizi and Accadamia. Your channces of getting into the Basilica will be slim unless...

I take it you didn't walk up to San Miniato al Monte for a view of Florence!

There are lots of good retauants in Florence. Would recommend: Trattoria Antico Fattore, Trattoria Giovanni, Osteria Cinghiale Bianco, Osteria Del Pavone, Buca Poldo, Trattoria de' Guicciardini da i Bigi e i Birghe. You could spend two weeks in Florence and not see everything as the city is one...

Aren't bonuses for all players and staff linked to a top 10 finish? My understanding from listening to a podcast some time ago is no-one gets a bonus unless we finish in the top 10.
