    [Albion] Brighton v Chelsea highlights 1973

    Was still a bit young and lacking in cash (just pre paper round times) to go regularly, but I do remember going to the Middlesbrough match the previous month because a team of us were allowed in for free in exchange for going round with a collection box. I really don’t remember what it was for...

    Brilliant stuff from the Gaffer and GB. As soon as I saw the weather this morning I thought and felt for you guys doing the Moyleman. Just puts into perspective that my usual Sunday morning running partner was injured so I took the opportunity to go a bit later just so I could see off the worst...

    [Music] Ramonas and The Sex Pistols Expose

    Thought they were both good. The lead singer with the Pistols did sound reasonably like Lydon and the guitar sound was about right so it made for a pretty decent recreation.

    [Misc] Kevin Sinfield & MND

    Just popped down to the bottom of my road to give him a cheer, then caught him again at the top (he was going round the long way!) Top man for what he’s doing, both physically and fundraising.

    [Help] Gardeners Question Time.

    Gave the lawn a going over with the scarifier this morning, hope the weather stays compliant over the next few weeks. I have the seed to put down but figured I’d wait until Tuesday as the forecast is dry til then but wet on Wednesday. Before and after pictures here (slightly restricted as we had...

    [Help] Gardeners Question Time.

    I have a question for Gardener’s Question Time please. Mrs A has suggested we scarify the lawn this weekend. I have a machine for it so it’s no big deal to do it but am wondering if we’ve left it a tad too late in the year now? Any thoughts? I am Brighton based.

    Great news for you, but I’m pretty staggered that they’d leave it in there for over a year as the ‘preferred option’ The preferred option is surely asap, what a sad state the NHS is in (I can hear myself stating the bleeding obvious) if hobbling around with a needle stuck in your foot has a...

    [Albion] Your defenders won't like him

    I see your point Harry as it reads, but in my mind where the song goes Shrarrif he don’t like I - it, Rock the Casbah, Rock the Casbah, I’m hearing Defenders they don’t like hee - im Tariq Lamptey, Tariq Lamptey The song is sung in the manner of a football chant and lends itself to this...

    What a relief! I’ve been reading this thread for years feeling like a proper slow Old Git and it turns out I’m benchmarking myself against England Internationals!

    [Football] Anyone ever taken a betting complaint to IBAS?

    I made a claim against Betfair many years ago and IBAS upheld it and made them pay out. I think they are properly neutral and if you can demonstrate Bet365 are factually in the wrong you should get paid.

    I’m sure I heard Big Nuts team singing ‘Is that all you take away’ at me. Impressive running again from the NSC team, there was plenty of sweat on show. This event seems really popular with runners as much as a social event as anything else really. It’s quite a who’s who of local runners and...

    Sorry Gaffer, am running with my normal club team again this year. You wouldn’t want me in your team anyway, for the first time I will be the weakest link in my team this year! After not being able to run because of my knee injury, then having the op in January and not able to break into a jog...

    [Travel] Can you remember your 1st flight?

    Gatwick to Newcastle in 1979 for the promotion game. I seem to remember it costing £59 and included the match ticket which was in the seats opposite the dugouts!

    The Clash - Rock the Casbah Defenders they don’t like him! Tariq Lamptey, Tariq Lamptey Defenders they don’t like him! Tariq Lamptey, Tariq Lamptey These posts always get ignored, but I’ve sung this to myself and it works! Simple to learn, the song is sung like an anthemic chant in itself...

    Disappointing year for me with all the cancellations of parkrun and track sessions in the first part of the year, I became something of a plodder which I convinced myself it was something of a good thing to take a break from ‘speedwork’ (I use that word at a bit of a stretch!) When things...
