    Hull 5th round Cup game - Monday 17th Feb; Live on BT Sport

    Well that's us out of the cup. We haven't won an evening match at home since November 2012 - I make it 9* evening matches without a win. *Edit

    Zamora...

    For "Never Go Back", see Andrew Crofts. For "He must be crap as [X] are letting him go", see Ashley Barnes. The right answer, surely, is that it depends on the money?

    Banner in support of No to Hull Tigers campaign ???

    That would mean that people like John Henry (doing a fine job owning Liverpool) couldn't run a football club, but would do absolutely nothing to prevent (English) scum like Bill Archer. Nationality is a complete red herring.

    Greatest sporting event you have been to other than football?

    Without doubt the 2012 Olympics. I'll go for Bolt winning the Men's 200m Final, though the Women's Beach Volleyball Final was pretty good too.

    Who do you want in the 5th round then?

    Could Bridcutt's last ever game at the Amex be him playing for Gus's Sunderland in the FA Cup 5th Round? Given the choice, Charlton at home, or Sheffield United if they win tomorrow (not that unlikely?). Please not bloody Stoke.

    The Lib Dems,do they face Wipeout ?

    I really don't think they do face wipeout. As e77 says above, their organisation in the seats they do currently hold is (like it or not) brilliant, and they held Eastleigh. I suspect they will hold plenty of their current seats. People forget - in 2010, their vote share went up compared to...

    Are Forest taking the Pis#???

    Slightly off topic, but the "Foreign Owners" thing is an absolute 100% red herring. There might be dodgy characters owning English clubs, but there's also plenty of decent ones too. Would you rather the Albion were owned by the John Henry of Liverpool FC, or good old English Bill Archer? I'm...

    Bizarre NSC Banner Ads

    I currently have adverts for Visit Norway. I can say for certain that this computer has never been used to search for anything about Norway. Still, better than Christian Dating, I suppose.

    Will in your lifetime a WOMAN play in the Football League , Premier League or FA Cup?

    My instinct is "of course not, don't be so bloody stupid". But then Perugia came close to fielding a woman in Serie A, and as the FA Cup is included in the question, all it would take would be one ridiculous League 2 team (or even a non-league one) to field do it. Feasibly, could one lower...

    In what DECADE did you FIRST see an Albion HOME game ?

    1990s To be precise, Albion 1-1 Hartlepool on 21 August 1993.

    Ashley Barnes - what would you have done?

    I completely agree with this. We may have a replacement lined up, he may not have played every game anyway, and of course not getting a fee in the summer would be a bad thing - but not only are we losing out on his contribution to the team and to the rest of our season, a promotion rival is...

    Hitzlsperger

    With a World Cup coming up in a country where homosexuality is illegal*, we certainly aren't there yet in the world of football, regardless of how the population in the UK feel about it. *I'm referring to Qatar, but even before then we've also got one in Russia which isn't exactly in the news...

    Top 15 Albion appearances in the 2nd Tier

    Well 15th place must be somewhere between 101-116, and if Barnes has hit 100 there must be someone else in the current squad who's close, especially given how many Barnes has missed through suspension Gordon Greer? Liam Bridcutt?

    Doctor who time of the doctor

    Well I liked it. Not 10/10 by any means, but it was good. Mainly though I was happy because at least it finally answered a lot of questions. Who really were the silence, and where did they come from over the last few series? What was in the Doctor's room in the hotel? (Ok, bit of an ubergeek...

    Looks like we really aren't very big in Europe.

    This picture doesn't change the size of mine - the smaller the British average, the bigger I am compared to the average British guy... #alwayslookonthebrightside

    *LATEST train news*

    Exactly my issue - nightmare scenario would be making it to the Amex then having to wait overnight in Brighton station to get home again in the morning. But I really don't want to miss this match :(

    Tough Choice

    £1,000,000 isn't enough to quit a job/career on. Obviously the correct answer should be to choose the partner regardless of the amount (I don't get to play as I'm single - cue world's smallest violins etc) but if you're going to make it a tough choice, at least make it enough to money to jack...

    Which season would you like to see again ?

    I'm not sure I've felt any better as an Albion fan than just 3 years ago, during - and particularly at the end of - the 2010/11 season. 1) We weren't just the best, we were by far the best in that league. We bloody walked it. No, we didn't really bother in the last 4 games but that doesn't...

    Barney Rubble, Stubble?

    What, the bit about not mentioning Murray anymore, except every single time we mention Ulloa? Yeah, I know what you mean.
