    [Albion] Final round of televised games: Albion v Derby moved to Mon. 2nd May @ 2:30pm

    What about Leeds v Charlton? Sometimes we just forget ... they are the mighty Leeds United.

    The greatest footballer that you ever saw play live

    It was his SECOND spell at Stoke, not the one that started in 1932.

    The greatest footballer that you ever saw play live

    I'll play the Old Git card and say Stanley Matthews, playing for Stoke City in a league game at Villa Park.

    Charlton Protests

    I don't remember the police intervening during the York City events. Football clubs employ stewards to control crowds.

    Charlton Protests

    We never had a game abandoned as a result of enthusiastic whistles. The referee and players simply need to adjust to the circumstances.

    The ultimate REFERENDUM thread

    To say nothing of EDF ... 85 per cent of which is owned by the French government.

    Trump rally called off-chaos and fighting

    Have you not read "Miami and the Siege of Chicago" by Norman Mailer? The 1968 party conventions were wild affairs, compared with today's tame politics.

    At what point does chanting cross over the line?

    I've always been of the opinion that there's not much wrong with East London semantics. It's the phonetics that lets them down.

    [Misc] Daily steps counting

    Can you get a note from your mum that excuses you from all this exercise? I've got a sick note from my doctor.

    At what point does chanting cross over the line?

    Demanding that UEFA take action against individual fans is a sure-fire way of expressing outrage, but ensuring that nothing happens. Maybe Manchester United could do something?

    Even more unbelievable,

    My experience of regularly using the roads in Brighton that have bus lanes is that emergency vehicles almost always use the bus lanes and only use the main traffic lanes to overtake. Moving INTO a bus lane will cause an obstruction to an emergency vehicle and should therefore be discouraged.

    Adam johnson sacked

    The earnings of the Chief Executive are relevant to the extent that a key feature of this whole saga is the money that Sunderland FC are committing to retaining their place in the Premier League. Keeping Johnson playing has been a vital part of that strategy. Playing the "not guilty" card for...

    Adam johnson sacked

    The Chief Executive of Sunderland FC (who earned £663K in 2014) was briefed by the police in May 2015 and spoke with Johnson's lawyers shortly afterwards. She should be asked who came up with the cunning plan to protest all along that Johnson was innocent, on the off chance that the young girl...

    Adam johnson sacked

    That could only happen if laws were made in Brussels. The fact is that they are not; they are made by national parliaments.

    Newcastle United 1 Bournemouth 3.

    I have this vague recollection of us playing Newcastle at the Amex. Twice.

    Roads in East Sussex.

    The section of the A27 at Firle has been resurfaced this week. Balfour Beattie, on behalf of Highways England. So far so good. They have now moved on in the direction of Selmeston.
