    [Football] Former league clubs you would like to see back in the league.

    Reading the list of clubs reminds me of collecting football programmes as a kid, scanning long lists posted to me after I'd responded to a classified ad in Shoot or something. I remember defunct clubs I'd never heard of like Aberdare seeming very exotic.

    [News] Royal Mail household delivery service.

    It was my local post office moving into a shop where there were fewer counters, bigger queues and a more awkward location that meant I started using Evri instead of Royal Mail for parcels. I'm probably not the only one so it's interesting to know Post Office and Royal Mail are competitors.

    [Help] Can you help my book become a bestseller (and support NSC)?

    Bought just after 11, and will read on the way to Sheffield at the weekend :)

    [Palace] #cpfc

    Part of me doesn't want Potter to go to Palace because I think he might make them a much better team. But a bigger part of me would be looking forward to his response the first time the teenagers publish one of their "open letters" on social media.

    ...or they bring in Potter and it's his first game managing them which would make the Chelsea boo-fest of last season look like a sedate church picnic by comparison

    [Albion] Amex grass lamps

    A quick Google shows it's not unique at all to us. e.g. Leicester https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/orange-glow-over-centre-leicester-4851207 The International Journal of Sustainable Lighting even did a study on it which, this being NSC, someone probably has access to...

    [Albion] FA cup 4th round, Sheffield united

    That thing about making walk ups so expensive people don't bother to travel seems to be in place already on some lines. The other day I had to go from Bristol to Bath for work, a journey of 1 stop and 11 minutes, and an off peak single was a scandalous £9.20.

    [Music] Stevie Wonder live at the theatre royal 1973

    A few places list it as July 4th too, which again seems unlikely as he was in New York on the 3rd and Atlanta on the 6th.

    [NSC] Rules of engagement for the WBBWC24

    I hope Barco and his agent are closely monitoring this thread to get an understanding of the fanbase at the club.

    [NSC] Rules of engagement for the WBBWC24

    In a rational world this would be taken as the benchmark of sound judgement and sanity. I fear we are surrounded by deviants however.

    [NSC] Rules of engagement for the WBBWC24

    I'm with you. If it can't maintain structural integrity or alternatively if a significant amount of it melts during dunking then it's not a biscuit worthy of the name in my world.

    [Brighton] Old Brighton Postcard

    Bit of a long shot, has anyone got any old postcards/photos of the Arcadia Cinema? My paternal grandfather was the organist/pianist there in the 1930s. He also used to play for the ice skaters at the Dome if anyone has photos of that from a similar time. Thank you!

    [Albion] Luton/Spurs/Sheff Utd away tickets

    Loyalty is incredibly hard to reward without someone missing out. The model the club has chosen is weighted towards rewarding the most loyal of all and gradually gets increasingly broad and "unfair" as it goes down the chain. At the moment someone on 200 points could have been a STH for 3 or 4...

    [Football] Carabao Cup semi-finals

    It's lunchtime, and I have to wait in for a package so I did some maths: Chelsea's wage bill just for those who played against Middlesborough, and just for yesterday, was around £205,000. The players who appeared yesterday will cost them approximately another £72,000,000 in wages this year...
