    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    I also like this idea. There must also be an added psychological driver when you never quite made it as a player but could be close to PL fame as a manager, having clawed your way up from youth coaching etc.

    [Politics] Starmer v Sunak *** Official Match Thread ***

    It hasn't worked in high-tax Scotland....all of the public services are just as much of a shambles.

    [Football] Man City launch legal action against Premier League

    Yes, this pre-emptive tactic must have been planned if they got a sniff of upcoming PL action I suspect.....hope it blows up in their face......

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    This is a complicated issue and there's a danger of going off topic but there is a huge amount of bloating in UK universities and they are sitting on a pensions time-bomb that we are all at risk from having to pick up the tab for. One of the problems (like many educational issues) is that...

    [Albion] Who will we sign first?

    Physical, mental, tactical or what? Can't see any signing (or singing) until there's a manager. Club website news scraping the barrel for stories so hopefully won't drag on too much longer.

    [Albion] Ruud van Nistelrooy for manager ?

    ....and not a take the reins joke in sight.....

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    That all sounds completely believable apart from a Swedish football manager needing an interpreter

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President Elect 2025

    How come that speech wasn't slander?

    [Albion] Help needed - I’ve written an Albion book - what next?

    These folks work to crowdfund publication with writers who have a decent online audience (e.g. NSC!) but might be too niche for them (can't understand why....) https://unbound.com/

    [Football] Solution to injury problems

    boots......c. 1906

    [Albion] Henrik Rydstrom - new manager candidate.

    Thanks - watched the highlights and alongside the stats seemed like a comfortable top of table win, after the early scare.

    [Albion] Henrik Rydstrom - new manager candidate.

    Is Malmo v Elfsborg on tv anywhere? KO at 18.00.

    [Politics] Who would be in your celebrity Cabinet?

    JKR for PM. Able to totally nail her day job brilliantly whilst sticking to her wider principles and fending off social media / online nutters with ease. I'd trust her to choose the rest but it would be good to have a DCMS minister that genuinely liked football like Delia Smith.

    [Politics] General Election 2024 - The Poll

    Maybe I've got this wrong / perhaps written about elsewhere but according to Sky's Euro 2024 scenarios there is a theoretical possibility of there being an England v Scotland QF on 6th July. Just imagine that run-up week through the election and what effect it could have on Scottish voting. As I...

    [Politics] General Election 2024 - 4th July

    Don't underestimate how important a Labour recovery is in Scotland in order to top up their total number of seats and end up with a decent UK majority. It's a steep hill to climb and this BBC article summarises the challenges. Despite the SNP shambles they will be hard to dislodge and many will...

    Which Premier League clubs had most injuries? [BBC]

    Some tables that are not good to be in the top half of........or be above Palace......all quite telling

    [Technology] Sony TV repair

    Handy to know as my three-year old Bravia has just stopped running BBC iPlayer and it seems from forums that it is a reset / firmware or Android operating system problem but tackling those things hasn't solved it yet.

    [Albion] Henrik Rydstrom - new manager candidate.

    Has anyone done dental due diligence? Now we know the truth of the ancient proverb: When your manager has to open wide Then your season will start to slide (This is from the same book of runes that says When your manager's teeth are taken out, Many NSC members suffer with gout)

    [Politics] General Election 2024 - The Poll

    It's always depressing having to vote in Scotland in an SNP stronghold as it feels pretty useless..... best you can hope for is to add to the overall UK Labour vote share....sadly I don't think the campervan party will suffer much of a dent in their Westminster seats....especially if Scotland do...
