    The Great Escape Theme

    Definitely NOT. Whenever I hear it blasted out at an Albion game, I just know that it spells out the message that we are expecting a defeat. One observation about the flags that were handed out last night ... Once it got dark, the blue flags became almost invisible. All that I saw was 10,000...

    At £121 a ticket, I'm giving it a miss.

    No it's not. It's spelt MANOEUVRE in the world I live in.

    Wigan Athletic fan wins season ticket for 2016/17 for creating Will Grigg chant....

    My effort is "Nine - Nil to the Albion". Unfortunately the opportunity to use it hasn't cropped up yet.

    Trains on Monday- waaaaah! [Update: full match day service]

    My latest tweet from Southern (at about 7:05pm this evening) suggested I ask Network Rail's timetable enquiry line. When I phoned Network Rail, the man who was trying to be helpful said that the only trains running east of Lewes after 10:00pm would be at 22:12 and 22:42 - ALL OTHER departures...

    I have just this minute received a tweet from Southern, advising that replacement buses WILL be serving Glynde after 10pm. #hopeless

    Old Trafford evacuated MATCH ABANDONED

    I do remember somebody questioning why they chose to blow the thing up outside the County Council's offices, when the Police Headquarters were just up the road. :)

    Old Trafford evacuated MATCH ABANDONED

    I remember the local bomb squad delivering a suspect package to the field outside our office in Lewes. I'm not sure where it had been left originally, but we all stood behind the windows while the thing was blown up by a small team of experts. The bang was nowhere near as loud as what we hear...

    But will that get you to Polegate, Bexhill or Hastings?

    A question for anyone who bought home and away play off tickets online at the same time

    I had a problem with my tickets for Monday night - no email was received, meaning nothing to print at home. A quick phone call to the ticket office resolved matters and the email was re-sent without delay. Well sorted.

    Trains on Monday- waaaaah! [Update: full match day service]

    Thanks, Bozza. I've just had a response from Southern to a question I asked on Twitter. What times do trains run from Falmer to Glynde next Monday after 21:30? The answer:- There is a 22:15 service that includes a bus replacement service from Lewes. My next question will be:- How many bus...

    Is this true? There is legislation that requires a trade union to give due notice of strike action or face penalties. But what about an employer locking staff out when they are available for work and willing to do it? Is that legal?

    Most Labour/Tory English regions?

    At the recent Assembly elections, the biggest share of the vote in West Belfast went to the People Before Profit Alliance, an off-shoot of the Socialist Workers Party. They also won a seat in the Foyle constituency.

    Ho ho. You'll be suggesting next that Palace deal with their defensive difficulties by borrowing Kerry Mayo for the Cup Final.

    Who remembers the old Third Division (South), when only the team that finished first got to be promoted to the Second Division?

    Idiot alert scores level after two legs...

    I'm confused. Wednesday are giving themselves an advantage because they will be selecting players who have missed recent games. And the Albion are at a disadvantage because we will have to be using players who have missed recent games. How does that work?
