    [Albion] If Ferguson is now worth £51m, maybe Hürzeler might consider letting him play?

    If true, he should blame his agent for letting him sign such a long contract. If also true that it is for £30k a week, he's a fool.

    [News] Christmas Markets

    I went to Dusseldorf this time last year, they were playing Schalke and fans mingled in the city centre Christmas markets with annoying lack of plastic chair luzzing. Only slightly overpriced but good fun. Not been to one in the UK yet.

    [Technology] Has anybody come off of Twitter / X? How easy did you find it?

    Me too. Although I never posted on Twitter, it was handy for following certain accounts. Most of the accounts seem to be on Blue Sky so I'm done with Twitter now.

    Detectorists BBC4 Thursday at 10pm

    Comedies like The Detectorists and Early Doors (to name but two) are what we do so well in this country. We also usually know when to stop making them rather than dragging them out like they do in some countries.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    I'm quite happy with the appointment. The FA obviously didn't rate Potter and, whilst I would have preferred Eddie Howe, as he's not available then this is irrelevant. The 2nd most successful manager we ever had was pretty much hounded out of the job, just like all the less successful ones...

    [Football] Man City PL Charges

    I would think that debt to any non owners is far more problematic. Does it mean that interest free loans are not allowed and that all loans will need to be at market rate of interest?

    [Football] England v Greece match thread

    It's almost as if Southgate wasn't the problem that so many said he was.

    my 92 ground adventure

    In Bradford, you get arrested and thrown in jail if you say you're English, don't you?

    [Albion] Taking a motorcycle to the Amex on Sunday: Where do I leave a helmet?

    Whilst free motorcycle parking is excellent, £7.50 or £8 to store a helmet is very expensive (although perhaps not in comparison to the price of the rancid burgers). As others have suggested, if you fave a full face helmet, use a long chain lock and lock the helmet to your bike. I also use a...

    [Albion] Brighton's women's team - what's going on

    Seems to be a very good transfer window but I still can't see a top four finish. My, worth very little, end of season prediction. 1 Chelsea 2 City 3 Arse 4 Liverpool 5 Spurs 6 Man U 7 Brighton 8 Leicester 9 Villa 10 Everton 11 West Ham 12 Palace

    [Football] Man City PL Charges

    I read that that if City are (just) relegated after a points deduction then The Championship are contractually obliged to accept them. However, if City are kicked out of the PL at the end of the season, it is cup to The EFL if they accept them and in which division.

    [Football] Man City PL Charges

    If they are guilty then it will be massive. It should be enough to see they kicked out of the PL and have to apply to join one of the other leagues. I suspect it will be just a massive points deduction meaning one relegation. I hope I'm wrong.

    [Film] Clooney, Wahlberg, Neeson etc.

    Actors are self employed and similar to many self employed people will wonder where their next payday will come, so they take any old shit if the price is right. We think that these multi millionaires can't need the money but perhaps they have expensive "habits", expensive children, expensive...

    [Misc] Plantar Fasciitis...

    Your Dr is wrong, although there may be nothing that can be done on the NHS in your region. The spike ball or golf ball works, as does the boot in bed, as long as it doesn't stop you sleeping. Shockwave therapy works for most people, although didn't work for me. If all else fails, there are...

    [Football] Should we scrap the offside rule?

    No. Players, and fans, have got to realise that the officials are doing the best they can. We have gone from the refs getting decisions wrong, to VAR getting some decisions wrong, to VAR being too accurate.

    [Misc] Will Writing

    You need to make a Codicil, a blank one can be downloaded from the internet. Fill it in and get it signed. However, if the changes are major then you will need a new will. If you are a member of a union, they will do special deals (or wait for November, as above).

    Most famous person you have met, shook hands with and a chat

    I met Fat Boy Slim before when was Norman Cook. Back stage at a Red Wedge gig in north London. I'm afraid to say that he was a complete and utter c***. Perhaps I got him at a bad moment.

    [Football] Would Man City take a 100 pt deduction tomorrow.

    I think they would accept just a points deduction. One relegation, an enjoyable season in the Championship and back again beating everyone.

    [Albion] So, 3 PL games in, are we a real threat?

    A threat to the top four? Almost certainly not. A threat to the European places? You would think so. A threat of relegation? Nope.
