    [Travel] Sunglasses

    I have multiple pairs - a £4 Primark pair I got on an unexpectedly sunny day in Belfast when I'd gone for 2 days of predicted thunderstorms and clouds and which I stick in my pocket for the football and other things where they may get lost. I've got a £20-ish pair of Goodr sunglasses for sport...

    [Albion] Getting an Albion seagull tattoo

    You could get a negative space tattoo, so a block of colour (like a small rectangle in Albion blue) with the seagull left blank in the middle. It could have a yellow beak then too.

    [Albion] Premier League squad lists have been announced

    Is Milner's middle name really Phillips or is he hiding a double-barrel?

    [Football] Caption Competition

    There there Gareth, no need to cry wondering what England could have won if you'd picked me sooner...

    [Albion] Man City away tickets

    5 ambulant disabled in 113 220 left in 313. A few singles but plenty of 2 or more together too. Mostly up towards the back.

    [Misc] Thingy on Bike Handlebar. What is it?

    Assuming this isn't a joke, for transport they screw the bell right down. Unscrew the dome a bit and it'll ding delightfully when pinging the lever. Screwing and unscrewing the dome will change the pitch of the ding.

    [Humour] If you thought some of the posts on NSC were stupid……

    This kind of thing constantly reminds of my ex-barrister mate who once said if you ever need motivation to stay on the right side of the law just wander round your local supermarket for an hour and see if you can find 12 people you'd be happy to have on a jury making a judgement about evidence...

    [Music] What's the best song you have heard today? Share it here.

    I used to be a bit of a snob about anything that'd get played on Radio 1 but enjoyed Mini Exile listening to this before school today. Video has the bonus of Taylor flicking Vs like a Millwall fan circa 1983:

    [Football] Newcastle fans and YouTuber support Saudi, confront protesters

    So he filmed people claiming equivalence between the British and Saudi Governments invalidated the protest as if that makes the actions of the Saudi government somehow OK, and when the protestor said he agreed with them about the British Government, they didn't listen to him but carried on...

    [Misc] What Book are you Currently Reading?

    Walden by Henry David Thoreau. Keep seeing it quoted in places so decided to take the plunge.

    [Other Sport] Entitled tw4ts at chelski

    I don't think it's possible to generalise. There are many people who are exhibitionists, and many who don't have moral hang-ups about sex and don't care about others judging them. If they can monetise it and retire young with a big house then I can see why they would. It's not necessarily...

    [Albion] Spurs fan and broadcaster claims Romano normalises abusers and Saudi

    It feeds his bank balance too - he makes around $90,000 a month from ad sharing revenue. Rage-baiting (an actual thing) by posting things he knows will generate controversy, get retweeted, get replies and views because they'll enrage people and be divisive, will directly earn him more money...

    [Albion] *new* Europa League Limited Edition "Pavilion" Kit

    I saw a couple wearing hyperturq's at the Amex last season that were definitely not the right colour and were surely fakes. Maybe not obvious on their own but stood out a mile around others. I wouldn't be surprised if the increasingly complex designs and non-standard colours are to make faking...

    [Albion] What to wear

    Not as far as I know, though I have noticed a steady decline in the variety of hats worn at Lewes FC games in my occasional visits. At least a dozen different types of hats on the terraces a decade ago, now it's beanie or flat cap and not much else. The trilby, fedora, pork pie, Panama, beret...

    [Other Sport] Entitled tw4ts at chelski

    I wonder if Ben White - who I think has said he doesn't actually like football - wishes he'd gone to Chelsea.

    [Other Sport] Entitled tw4ts at chelski

    I've got a colleague whose husband supports Chelsea. She was telling me today him and his mates spent the weekend being very rude about us - apparently we're to blame, not sure how, but they firmly believe it's our fault that Chelsea are rubbish 😁

    [Football] Are Chelsea actually safe?

    Van Gaal warned Ten Hag about going to Man Utd - I think / hope that them and Chelsea are increasingly seen as a not clubs a manager goes to if they want to create something other than a big bank balance, and De Zerbi seems to want more than just that. Chelsea seemed to be turned down a couple...

    [Albion] Special Times

    I like the Guardian summary of today: "This wasn’t all about Evan Ferguson. The first five minutes aside, Brighton were just brilliant, an extended shot of dopamine for neutrals never mind their own fans. Billy Gilmour – who is receiving an animated post-match appraisal from Roberto De Zerbi as...

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President

    This is the best book I've read about the current state of the US. Recommended to me by someone I occasionally work with who lives in North Carolina and describes herself as anti-Democrat but not pro-Trump, and sincerely concerned that it's too late to avoid a major organised armed and...
