That's interesting ... personally I just can't imagine Dunky wearing anything but a Brighton shirt. In my mind he stays with us until he's too old to command a regular slot, and then has a season or two of cameos before retirement and a possible role in the coaching set-up. Would a bigger club...

Is it wrong of me to be worried about someone who isn't an algorithm signing? I bloody LOVE that algorithm.

True but we might never win any meaningful trophies. I’ve learned to break down my BHA experience into little bursts of short term pain and pleasure. Emotionally it’s hard to focus on entire seasons or longer term projects. So I’m loving the style of football and the points we’re racking up in...

I am reading NSC right now in the Premier Inn beside Edgar Street. As I trudged from the station towards those floodlights I reflected a little on what's happened to both clubs since that Reinelt goal. I imagine they remain pretty pissed off with us.

I feel less angsty about this defeat than I have done about narrow defeats in games we should have won. We were tonked at home and never in the game. Outfought and outmanoeuvred. The score line didn’t flatter Everton but it may have slightly flattered us. In short, we deserved to lose. So we...

It really did. I had texts asking me what the hell was going on and my response was, I don’t know, I can’t believe they didn’t get five before the break.

I definitely heard it but it just came across as frustration being vented as the half time whistle went, along with all the general muttering and grumbling at that point. I think there’s a big difference between that and actually booing and/or abusing players as they head for the tunnel, which...

Totally with you on that. Classless and stupid (and completely in character) for the United morons to bellow it in the faces of our families and oldies at Wembley, and really disappointing to see Brighton fans acting in the same way towards Wolves fans who (a) seemed like a good-natured bunch...

I notice that Lewis Dunk always begins each game by taking his position in defence, dropping to one knee and then doing up his boot laces. Surely that must be a superstition though I don't remember him ever referring to it. It worked well on Saturday. Not so well that time we crashed 5-0 at home...

Namechecked as a Reason to be Cheerful by Ian Dury. RIP.

They certainly sounded loud and proud on TV. Probably not the easiest atmosphere to play in if you're an opposing player, and it must have given all the Forest players a boost. I guess you'd expect it to be noisy, given they've been away from the Premier League for so long and are now fighting...

Had no idea that Jordan Pickford's great grandad played for us!

We've over-achieved this year in terms of our playing budget and as fans we've seen world-class football, the best we've ever experienced as Brighton fans. If we end up coming up slightly short in terms of European qualification, that will ultimately be because other teams are better. (Though...

Really liked his attitude despite not often getting a run in the side. Never complained and always seemed to be supporting the team to the full. Met him in the club shop and he was a lovely guy to chat with and very happy to have pics taken with my daughter. As Warren would say: Uwe Humeneier...

Took off the regular socks I had intended to wear in favour of some BHAFC ones that someone gave me as a birthday present that morning. They've been burned now, and the ashes are in a lead-lined box at the bottom of a mine shaft.

Very good news. I don't really have a deep working knowledge of how footballers' contracts work, so this may be a silly question. I'm just wondering, as we offer new improved contracts to star players, are we simply protecting assets and upping transfer fees when the times comes ... or are we...

I reckon we’d go out of the Saxon Cup of Life on penalties.

Yes, block 141. Very good seats I thought, especially the ones that weren't spattered with vomit ...

I found those bloody beachballs quite annoying if I'm honest.

Sat just below Steve Sidwell and his family, who was being generous with anyone who wanted a chat or a photo. And just along from a lad who was sick early in the first half and needed leading away. Sadly this was too late for the unfortunate guy in front of him.
