    [Albion] U18s game postponed after Arsenal team goes to Bournemouth by mistake

    The thing is, if you're heading for Lancing for (at the latest) an 11am arrival, and you take (just say) the M3 instead of the M23, you'd have to be a long way down the M3 before realising that it's impossible to double back, or hang a left onto the A272, and still make it.

    The writer’s original tweet about it, mentioning Bournemouth, is still here.

    [Cricket] Rob Andrew gets top ECB job

    Presuming you support the idea of 18 counties -- no. The new-ish chair of the ECB, Richard Thompson, is a big supporter of this setup rather than regionalisation. Jon Filby the Sussex chairman is too. So I assume that Rob Andrew -- for all his other faults -- agrees with both of them.

    [Cricket] Rob Andrew gets top ECB job

    I don't want Sussex to leave Hove. There would only be any point if the club wanted to host men's internationals. There's too much competition for that already. It's a lovely place to which people like coming. There are some medium term plans to increase capacity with new stands and hospitality...

    [Cricket] Rob Andrew gets top ECB job

    The rumour is that the flats have sold but the floor reserved for commercial offices has not, and is being converted into flats.

    I was assuming the compensation payment would have to go from Sussex to the ECB

    [Cricket] Rob Andrew gets top ECB job

    …according to the Telegraph he’s been chosen as MD of professional cricket at the ECB. The paper describes his time at Sussex as a “mixed bag”. Presumably it means a bag that’s been emptied of all the good stuff, had some food waste put in it, and then mixed.

    [Politics] Nicholas Witchell

    I'm going to stick up for Nick here. I work in the same office as him. I'm 42, and he's been on the TV news longer than I've been alive. Writing a TV script so the words match the pictures (but don't simply repeat what it is you're looking at), and you're on a deadline, and maybe in a foreign...

    [Football] Was there an England game at the Goldstone in the '90s?

    I went to England Women v Iceland at the Goldstone in the 90s, cannot remember when though.

    [Albion] Excited?

    Feel a bit annoyed that I'll be piling into the west stand off the train at the last minute like it's a normal evening KO with no time to soak up any atmosphere, but, absolutely.

    [Other Sport] 2025 Women's World Cup Rugby at the Amex

    Good stuff, but it does make me wonder (again) why Albion women still have to play most games at Crawley

    [News] Baby murder nurse case

    Hard faced journos call some cases “mad or bad” trials. If a defendant claims to have mental health issues then a court has to decide whether that was the reason or excuse for the behaviour. Letby hasn’t provided evidence of any such issues.

    She will go to prison. There’s no mitigation or evidence of mental health problems.

    [Football] Palace or Arsenal?

    Arsenal 1-0, so as not to impinge too much on our superior goal difference.
