EPL - 11 Championship - 9 League 1 - 7 League 2 - 8 So 35/92 - more than I thought before I started counting!

Lovely - Geri Halliwell. Arrived early for an event and stayed late giving all the kids her time and attention and made them feel special (this was peak of her fame). Honorable mention for Professor Green too. Shit - Prince Michael of Kent gave me the full "don't you know who I am?" when young...

Whenever I go to another club forum for a laugh at them having a meltdown over something it makes me ever more grateful for the variety of topics on NSC. I don't even see this as a football forum, for me it's a forum of mostly Brighton fans talking about anything and everything, including...

It was indeed :)

It's lunchtime, and it's too long until the next game so I thought I'd start a mundane thread on mundane celebrity encounters. As in, the encounter being mundane but if the celebrity is too that's also enough to pass the time. Conversation/interaction has to have taken place, so I once sat...

Interesting to see some of the less favoured teams in the rugby world cup suggesting unconscious bias in refereeing works against them despite the greater apparent clarity and accountability.

That's very grim. Get the impression Andrew Neil knew, Savile knew he knew but also that he himself was untouchable. And that neither of them wanted to be part of the charade of the interview.

A while ago I read an account of a visit to England by a European in medieval times - he was a papal envoy or some such. His shocked description of English people could have been written after a night out in most English towns last, or any, weekend. Drinking and fighting does seem to be an...

Are you able to give us the context? Or perhaps a sense of what the impact of the decision would be and on whom/what? Happy to help via private message if I can at all.

That's a great list - Jehst and Chester P are on a lot of my playlists. Jehst's Alcoholic Author is unbelievably 22 years old but could be released today and still sound current.

I've been lucky to work with Elliott Rae recently on bringing conversation about men's mental health into my work, crossing over into fatherhood and parenting and football too. Thoroughly recommend listening to everything he appears on https://musicfootballfatherhood.com/

Great thinking, thank you

Reviving a very old thread to ask the same question - anyone know of any pubs in Brighton or Hove Actually that still have a dartboard? Thanks

The Tony Bloom story - was mentioned somewhere that it wasn't for his party or buses due to be elsewhere. Something about him "comandeering" some spare buses for himself and a number of Albion fans on delayed flights to get to the ground on time.

I think it might go in our favour. It'll be the most scrutinised refereeing and VAR of any game so far this season. That puts more pressure on officials to get it right than be swayed by the kind of unconscious bias that might lead to quick judgements normally.

Why are you so keen to read it that way when that's not the case? If you have symptoms (which may include being miserable tired and depressed) the employer will support you in getting a GP diagnosis that there's a medical issue if you ask for one and if there is a medical issue then reasonable...

The article creates the whiff of snowflake because there's perhaps an agenda to do so. The actual guidance from East Midlands Ambulance Service (some of which I've pasted below) is a bit more than that and shows them to be a good employer and also not one that will enable people to take the...

Yep. And there are serious points around this and a national debate needed on the reasons for some of the poorer health outcomes men experience. It's a discussion that too often descends into "culture war" which benefits no-one and we end up either ignoring it or belittling it. I saw something...

Falling down a 4.30am rabbit-hole about mystery and surprise and psychology and storytelling and ending up on a blog about magic and sleight of hand that was so compellingly written (and having read some of his other stuff) I suspect may be Derren Brown with a pseudonym. Anyway, this was a...

Wherever he goes I wonder if it'd be considered an act of charity for us to warn their forums to be on the lookout for an obsessive Swede with a pizza addiction?
