    [Albion] new away fan ID/ticketing system

    sorry if fixtures but apparently the club will now be selecting a random sample of tickets to not send out, these tickets must then be collected at the away club's ticket offices on match day, subject to showing the correct ID I know the club want to be pretty strict on this issue, but as a...

    [Albion] Trossard dangling the 'come get me' to Chelsea

    doesn't that just make everyone angrier when they leave though? seem to remember cucurella's crying and badge kissing after that goal vs united was a significant source of ire when it became clear he actually wanted to go and play for a big 6 team

    [Football] Football disorder reaches eight-year high...

    to be honest I don't know 100% as I haven't been around fan disorder recently. a little while back now, but think about those chelsea fans kicking that black man off the Paris metro. classic example of disorderly behaviour, and also a good example of how three or four neanderthals can create a...

    [Football] Football disorder reaches eight-year high...

    it actually isn't. did my dissertation on this many years ago, and there's actually very little to suggest a link between factors such as unemployment and other forms of societal decline and football hooliganism. of course, really it's a combination of many many factors, but there's been no...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    agree, though as stupid as it was, I don't blame souness per se. talksport hire pundits based on their ability to generate interactions, in order to do this they pick those seen simultaneously as 'outspoken' but also totally out of touch. souness is in the position, commenting on a manager he...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    read this piece here, it should allay those specific concerns https://football-italia.net/why-de-zerbi-cv-shouldnt-worry-brighton-fans/ though souness' comments were ridiculous, and, ironically enough, evidently the results of a quick 30 second google search

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    think you missed their point. RDZ speaking spanish could help him get his ideas across better to those players while he's still improving his english

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    interesting quote from andrea maldera here 1171732186153848832 translation: "We work a lot on our matches and our analysis is deep and very detailed. With so few matches the players, who are used to different tactics in their various clubs, have very little time to assimilate the manager's...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    yeah he could've, my point being that it was never gonna happen, was it? can hardly blame him for sticking to the basics when it's his first conference in a new country, he's had to do a lot of it through a translator and sticking to the basics was what the club probably wanted him to do anyway.

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    you'll have to wait for the fluff piece on him in the guardian or the times once we've won a couple of games then I'm afraid :shrug:

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    genuinely what were people expecting? it's been a very long time since the press conferences held anything of interest, the club obviously like to make sure everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet at media appearances and them best way to do that is have a generic, base-level of information...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    very interesting clip from the man himself about why he likes to play from the back. though the entire thread (which is a few tweets in by the time this clip shows up) is a very nice read for anyone sti wanting to know more about how his team's play 1572189978356219904

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

    it's mitoma i was thinking of he loves wide players to stick tight to the touchline and puts a heavily emphasis in one-on-one duels

    [Albion] BRUNO please read

    utterly disgusting if that's the case, regardless if bruno wanted to leave or not. though I doubt this post would get through to the people actually sending the threats, unfortunately. obviously people with a very distorted view on reality
