    [Albion] Player Ratings - Southampton (H)

    Sadly, this is probably the truest post of the day. :down:

    [Football] March - end of the debate

    Solly's having his best season with us and is doing a great job in my opinion. You know what you get from him. He isn't going to beat opposing defenders for pace, and as he's playing wing-back, he is going to get in those tricky situations that caused the not-penalty and others (a la Villa)...

    [Albion] Alexis MacAllister positive Covid19 test?

    Gosh, we have so many midfielders I'd forgotten about Alexis. Where is he?!

    [Albion] Penalty or nah?

    I would have said yes if the ref had have given it from the off. Not enough evidence either way to change on-field decision for me. So no.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Southampton *** Official Match Thread ***

    Didn't deserve to lose, but certainly didn't deserve to win either. Whenever White and Bissouma are playing DM together, we never look like winning. We can't expect Lamptey to be our saviour every game. I don't want to be un-Christian towards Webster, so all I'll say is that White should be...

    [Football] The future of VAR in England

    I wouldn't mind if they completely scrapped VAR tomorrow, but it's being so awfully applied. In the scenario of the Southampton penalty, give it 2-3 looks: if it's still unclear, either stick with on-field decision of ask ref to go to screen. Ref isn't going to overturn his own decision unless...

    [Football] Mourinho and Spurs ?

    All I'll add is that there is absolutely nothing boring seeing Kane and Son turn on the turbo from their own half, with the ball ending up in the net 5 seconds later. That, for me, is exhilarating football.

    [Football] Millwall fans covering themselves in glory again

    What quantifiable objective needs to be reached before teams decide to stop taking the knee?

    [Football] Millwall fans covering themselves in glory again

    To those calling for these fans to be identified and banned, I think there are problems with this. If Millwall as a club were to go down that route, they are banning a fan for booing a gesture made by all players in support of a campaign against discrimination. Though I don't doubt many of those...

    [Football] BT Sport V Klopp

    I really like Jurgen Klopp and usually hate overly difficult interviewers, but I disagree with him here and I don't think the interviewer was too bad. Champions League in the PL have big squads with quality throughout. They receive far more money for playing in the CL and thus can use that...

    [Albion] ***Player Ratings vs Liverpool ***

    Absolutely this. He's an incredibly intelligent defender - excellent performance. Thought Connolly was fantastic in the first half and it's such a shame that Maupay went off because the two of them link up so well with one another.

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    You could actually argue Grealish fouls Lamptey because he spins his trailing leg round to wrap Lamptey up - twice.

    [Help] Weird CH boiler behaviour - any thoughts pls?

    Agreed - I thought it was going to be a thread of Chrissy losing it with a NSFW goal celebration.

    [Albion] Player ratings vs Villa (a)

    Welbeck MOM for me - exactly what we've been missing in games like that. Maty pulled off some excellent saves in the first half. Dunk pants first half, Webster pants second, but the defence looked better as the game went on. March excellent. Isn't it just marvellous that we have the most...

    [Albion] Martin Keown!

    Got a yellow card from my wife for shouting at Martin Keown relentlessly through the screen during the VAR decision, then gloating that I called it right and he didn't.

    [Albion] Solly! Solly March!

    Absolutely this. What I love about Solly is that he gets better as the game goes on. It's almost like he conserves his energy, so when others are tiring, he's still got some in the bag. What a finish, and justice done with the penno overturned. Really, really overjoyed for him that his moment...

    [Politics] Any views on the Government giving out untendered contracts on PPE?

    Considering the mass hysteria about the lack of PPE, I'm not really surprised the government moved heaven and earth to make sure they got what was needed. I think given the choice at the time, most people would have taken the "spend whatever money it costs to get the PPE we need" line. Bit easy...

    [Politics] Brexit

    I accidentally selected the wrong option because I actually voted Remain (having lived and worked in another EU country for a period of time) but I am now firmly pro-Brexit. I am of "another opinion" as even though I am well-educated and am well acquainted with current affairs, I am no expert on...
