    [Politics] Southgate at The Amex tonight?

    Reading this thread fills me with dismay. We’ve turned into a bunch of bitter, national-team hating moaners just because Southgate hasn’t chosen Dunk since his one and only call-up a couple of years ago. Who knows how Dunk fit into the England dressing room during that call-up? Perhaps he...

    [Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins Feyenoord

    I thought Ali J had an excellent game tonight. Can pick out passes that some of our other players (eg Trossard) can’t. Agonisingly close to scoring. GP clearly holds him in high esteem considering he’s played a role in quite a few of our recent games and is keeping others like Ali Mac and Jose...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Ham United *** Official Match Thread ***

    Yes, glad somebody pointed that out! Am I the only one who thought it should have been chalked off as the West Ham player took out two of ours like a bowling ball?!

    [Football] Are you watching the Cup Final?

    Absolutely delighted for Leicester. One of my best mates growing up is a Leicester fan and so is his whole family. I loved going to his house as in one of the rooms the wall was adorned with Leicester shirts from throughout the years, and in his games room he had a seat from Filbert Street. The...

    [Albion] A summary of Albion’s 2020/21 season - authors of our own downfalls

    100% this. Sadly last week seems like an anomaly in a season where our second halves are generally very poor and Potter has no answer for it. Almost half of the games we've gone in 1-0 up at half-time have ended in draws/losses. Only 5 times have we come away with more points by full-time than...

    [Albion] Potter or Hodgson, Albion's squad or Palace's squad

    If c. 91% of Albion fans on here would take both GP and our squad over Palace's, then looking at Palace's points tally and league finish over recent seasons, either our manager or players (or a combination thereof) must be underperforming.

    [Albion] We are no better than last season

    Which numbers is he looking at then?

    [Albion] We are no better than last season

    100% agree. You and I have been much of same mind this season GB. If we were to get 9 points from our last five games, I'd concede that we have improved in some areas and most importantly, in the points tally. However, this is unlikely and now it looks like we're going to either finish with our...

    [Football] FC Barcelona statement on the Super League

    This is not the first time Swansman has done this re: losing the Goldstone. If it was a Palace, Leeds or basically a fan of any other team in the English football pyramid making such comments on here, they'd have most likely been banned already.

    [Football] Liverpool and Manchester United lead ‘European League’ breakout league idea

    Putting my disgust at such an abhorrent idea to one side for just a moment, what I don't quite understand is what is possibly better about this for any fan of those clubs to possibly like? Scenario 1: ESL teams get what they want and remain in domestic competitions and host ESL in midweek...

    [Albion] Be pleased with that point pleeeeeease...

    Didn't watch the second half but am pretty content with that point. I'm far happier with a 0-0 draw against a decent team than going in 1-0 up at the break, only to then be outplayed in the second half and lose 2-1. I won't snub a hard-earned point against Everton.

    [Football] Dortmund's Bellingham 'disallowed goal' at Man City

    I was furious when I watched the highlights this morning. Referees make mistakes, I sympathise with that. However, this should not be allowed to be swept under the carpet as the ref's whistle will become the kryptonite of VAR - blow early and VAR can't be used. I certainly don't think refs are...

    [Albion] Why do we keep conceding late goals ? 9 matches this season and counting...

    I think it's part of a bigger issue of having excellent first half performances but weaker second halves against the top teams (the City game aside). We press so energetically in the first 45, which is why we look so good, and I think we run out of puff in the second. I think this has been the...

    [Albion] Dunky v Slabhead - who would win?

    I'm thinking that Dunky would possibly just throw himself in front of any "head-like-a-slab"-like charge from Maguire. His body is made of steel.

    [Albion] Dunky v Slabhead - who would win?

    Anyone watching last night would have seen our Lewis squaring up with Maguire towards the final whistle. But, in a Marvel-esque battle between the two captains, who would win? There's only one way to find out... FIIIIIIIIIGHHHHHTTTTT! :wrong: For me, it would be Dunky. Knowing that he won't...
