    What would your starting 11 be against Huddersfield?

    If fit Buckley has to start. He dominated their full back at their place earlier in the season they couldn't handle his pace.

    Palace derby day

    There is a fair few of us up here I know at least 5 other NE based Brighton fans and there are others who post on here. I try not to mention the FA Cup wins too often. Well not more than once a day! To be fair Brighton are well regarded by Toon fans for the way we play and the way we beat them

    Palace derby day

    I've got my tickets for the big game in the bag. I'm travelling down from Newcastle with my two sons for their 1st Palace derby and my first one since the 5 penalty debarcle at Selhurst in 1987. I get to several away games a year but living so far away from Sussex makes each home game that can...

    2 out of the 11 Wins.

    We can win all those games (last night proved we can beat anyone in this league) but predicting which ones is nigh on impossible. The important thing is the run in is pretty good and the next few games can allow the momentum to build. If can win several on the spin I think the confidence will...

    Rohan Ince signed

    Blimey you can see the family resemblance with Eric Young. Stick a head band on him and he's not far away

    Beyonce's Bum (Safe for work)

    The thing that gets me with her is not just her backside but her thighs! They are massive. You'd need a very .....very deep breath before diving in!

    Bumped Into Liam Bridcutt about an hour and half ago at the Amex (Gent)

    I sat behind Ashley Barnes at the Swindon game during the last season at Withdean. He was injured. He spoke to us on and off throughout the game and signed autographs for my two sons. Top fella

    Gus, Amex, Airports, Motorway services Watch!!

    Boring is good and hopefully he's home having a nice cuppa with his missus. I think we have more to lose with potential players going. I'd be quite happy to stick with what we have than see a flurry of ins and outs. Hurry up and get that window shut. I need to see them kittens again

    A thread dedicated to the person who first introduced you to the Albion

    My Uncle, Dickie Fleming took me to The Albion vs Preston NE 1978 I was 7 we won 3-1 I think. We sat in the west stand all I remember is the dark stand, wooden seats and the smell of tobacco smoke. Thta was enough for me I've been hooked since (on the Albion that is, not tobacco!) He also took...

    Hoskins

    His little cameo against Huddersfield promises great things

    Barnsley interested in Hoskins and Harley

    Definately more to come from Hoskins after Saturday's performance. He looked really up for it, linked up well with Buckley and Orlandi and looked a threat without having an opportunity on goal. I hope he's given more opportunities over the next few games

    Who is your DREAM PALACE MANAGER?

    Any one of these bad boys!

    Best game seen live as a 'neutral'...

    1992 Newcastle Utd vs Notts Forest league cup 4th or 5th round game. I went to Newcastle Uni and still live here. We had a tradition as students that when our team was playing the Toon we'd all go any support the mate's team in the away end. They got treated to some rancid Albion performances...

    Worst away visit

    Oldham away - miles from a station, the ground is elevated so its always freezing. I remember going to a 4th round FA Cup game when they still had the plastic pitch. It started out sunny, then the drizzle kicked in then full sleet and snow. it got so bad they had to get the orange ball out. It...

    Definately this! Feared the worst but it was pretty good. If it follows the previous series pattern then I'm hopeful of one or two classic episodes

    Family Trees........ Did you find out you were related to someone famous/interesting

    Yes your right - phew! And the Normans were originally Vikings so its a Nordic blood line

    Family Trees........ Did you find out you were related to someone famous/interesting

    I found out recently that I'm a direct male descendant of Robert De Blakeland who was born in 1265. He was a direct descendant of a Norman lord who arrived in 1066 and had a big estate which still exists in Calne Wiltshire (unfortunately its no longer in the family). Basically I'm a of French...

    Confess one uniquely interesting fact about yourself

    My grandad was Harold MacMillan's gamekeeper. He is mentioned in his autobiography for having a go at the French Ambassador's party who were at Birch Grove to discuss British entry into the EEC. The French were making too much noise on a pheasant shoot my grandad is shouted that someone should...
