    How EXACTLY Did The Club Plan On Communicating Tonight's Ticket Exchange?

    I stumbled across this information quite by chance (a link on the Club's website, not an e-mail), just in time (11:40am today) to suggest to Roz that she might enter the competition for a £25 voucher, because she can't get to the game tonight. How do they go about choosing the winners, though?

    Any Train/Bus Drivers on here?

    As long as you can steer straight, you should have no problems.

    Our friends up the road...

    There's a poll as well. Should Palace sack Pardew? Obviously not. He's doing a grand job.

    Recognition at Last

    The other Albion reference on the TV tonight was the appearance of Nigel Kennedy on the BBC1 News. Variously described as "Hove - born" and "Brighton - born", he described his first experience at a football match - the 6-0 victory of the Albion over Oldham Athletic at the Goldstone. But then...

    Are we cheats?

    Big Gully or Ben's Grandad?

    Are we cheats?

    My opinion is that you are wrong and have been given an adequate explanation of why by El Presidente and others. The Club is not in breach of FFP rules and is not cheating.

    Are we cheats?

    No. It took someone who understands FFP rules.

    Are we cheats?

    I'm feeling slightly bad about the fact that one of Sussex Nomad' s complaints against El Presidente is that EP is the only NSC moderator who is having a pop at him. As a moderator, I need to correct this impression. Sussex Nomad is clearly one of the dimmest posters ever. If he could grasp...

    Common sayings people get wrong

    The odd thing is that Americans pronounce "Houston" Hyooston, while most Brits say Hooston. The exact opposite of noos and nyoos for "news".

    Is it me or are there less poppies around this year?

    Both my parents served in the armed forces in WW2, and lost relatives in action in WW1. My dad was torpedoed in the Mediterranean in an action that saw shipmates killed. But neither of them ever wore a poppy. They took the view that remembrance was a private matter and that there was...

    Very O/T Brentford badge change.

    They've abandoned their loyalty to Middlesex. Brentford used to be the County Town.

    Pet (Dog) insurance

    Can't you insure for third party cover separately from any health insurance for the dog?

    Tony Bloom - Fans' Forum

    Tony Bloom has jumped higher than ever in my estimation. The Rose of Denmark is one of my favourite Bristol pubs.

    More sloppy journalism

    As someone who has worked a full career as a public transport planner, I am well used to the FACT that everyone in the world can do my job better than I can. Journalists are now subject to the same scrutiny. I blame social media.

    If you were in charge of the Lewes Bonfire tableaux....

    Yes, indeed. As the traditional chant puts it ... "Remember, Remember, There are two sides to every argument".

    If you were in charge of the Lewes Bonfire tableaux....

    Indeed, although it wasn't an effigy, it was a tableau that targeted Lewes District Council, who - for months - had refused to take any action to deal with an occupation by travellers of a pick-your-own strawberries farm. After almost a year of investigation, the CPS decided that no offence had...

    If you were in charge of the Lewes Bonfire tableaux....

    Firle Bonfire Society featured SASTA last Saturday, with a particular emphasis on the inconvenience that inaction by the train operator was causing to Albion supporters. They also commemorated the life of David Bowie.

    Uber Brighton

    The real issue is:- Which is the least reliable transport operator in Brighton - SASTA or Uber? At least SASTA occasionally turn up eventually.

    Uber Brighton

    Since the requirement is for Uber drivers to hold a licence issued by Brighton & Hove City Council, I'm assuming that it will be the Council's responsibility to check that drivers have a valid DBS check.

    Murray's first goal

    ... and Chris Hughton just stood there, accepting that Murray might have nearly missed? At the very least, Murray should be called in for extra training on Sunday.
