No their squad wasn't big or experienced enough.
Two or three big signings in the summer might see a sucessful challenge for the title in 12 months time.
But ask any Arsenal fan back in August, would you settle for Runners Up and Spurs and Chelsea both failing to qualify for Europe?, and...
As are to a degree the three VAR apology games, but let’s take the positives, as Questions asks, our greatest ever performance ?
One of them certainly, but there’s a few others that spring to mind, the demolition of United‘s Ronaldo is still a personal favourite.
In Mark McGhee’s defence, we had the lowest budget in the League by a country mile, (pre Tony, Dick was doing all he could but there was basically no money) he had effectively told the board this was probably the most likely outcome at both preseason and January, but unlike Peter Taylor he...
The beauty of supporting the Albion old love.
Whilst I’ve commented above about the nature of todays events, ie going down without any kind of fight as stated on Sky, age has taught me to now just concentrate on the Albion football wise ( apart from a secondary allegiance to Worthing) so by...
Just watching the scenes on Sky, got me thinking, have we ever gone down in this fashion, almost without a whimper?
From memory only 86/87 or 91/92 would come close, but there were serious financial issues going on behind the scenes which we knew nothing of, and in 95/96 anarchy had broken out...
Both are all but gone unfortunately, that said in the clubs entire history, players come players go.
For the older fans amongst us, we can in some ways draw comparisons with the summer of 1981, Mark Lawrenson the finest player to ever pull on an Albion shirt departed, also the hugely...
Unfortunately, Colombia didn’t go into lock down, and there is apparently/allegedly a surplus of cocaine in this country, thus bringing the price down.
A vast number of the people misbehaving inside or outside football grounds are probably more likely to be coked up than pissed up!
I saw a...
An amazing post, which strikes a chord with many, myself included.
Please remember Jon, you are not alone, and amongst the NSC family there is no end of number of people prepared to help you and equally as important listen.
For every gobshite on NSC there’s at least 50 good uns 👍

Actually I though the film was genius as well, not for the comedy value but showing how sad David’s life was until he started looking for real happiness and contentment
Again highlighting the genius of Gervais with The Office and Extras, always leave them wanting more.
Often wondered, although the money clearly helped, how he felt with the US Office going on for so much longer?
I initially described it as the biggest steal since Reynolds and Co stopped the train in 1963, till my Aston Villa supporting mate pointed out that Bruce and cop didn’t rob 5 trains that night only the one 😂
I remember him saying on Southern Sound when India was at war with Pakistan, he would have to go and enlist when the fighting reached his village.
“Where’s your village?” Tony Millard asked him.
“Ditchling” he replied.
(I’ll get my coat 🙈)
Known him since he was a kid, he once asked to borrow a coffin off me so he could be buried alive for another challenge (but we talked him out of it on that occasion ), he’s a lovely lad and a real character, I hope his achievements get him the recognition he deserves 👍
