[Albion] Getafe - pre-season friendly with La Liga side on Saturday 7th August, kick-off 7pm

Shouldn't you be more interested in WAGs' mothers at your age

Normally yes, but there are a couple of reasons why Ms Rodriguez elevates herself above the usual riffraff.

Their best player, soon to be our best player, will be on Olympic duty anyway.

With the Amex poor wifi standards are we ruling out a zoom call from Japan on the big screen at full time after our captains embrace and bloom runs onto the pitch with his Monte Blanc?

Why are people so keen to highlight all the negatives?

Why can't we just look upon it, as a chance to finally get back to the Amex after a long 18 months away, and celebrate on a (hopefully) sunny summers evening, and enjoy watching some good football?

It's been a long time coming folks, and l for one am relishing the prospect.

I didn't come here for a lecture in communism.

Very interesting. A clash of footballing philosophies too!

Anyone know why it's a 7pm kick off though and not in the afternoon?

The Olympic football final is on that day.

'Plenty of time' for "the player" to fly back with the time difference to get to the AMEX by 1900 BST.

Oh and absolutely no one in the crowd would want to miss that, now would they?

Would they?

Every year without doubt, someone on NSC predicts a new signing will be surprisingly announced/unveiled to the crowd at a pre-season friendly, maybe this will be the year!

You’re not new here, you know how it works.

. . . or maybe not.

Why can't people just accept that Getafe are coming over here just for a game of football, and not for some cloak and dagger reason? Is that really so hard to understand?

On the hand this is NSC l suppose, and sanity is something very rarely seen in here.

 

[durrington gull]

Well that's not a prestige friendly is it?

We have played Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Lazio and Sevilla in recent years and Getafe is the prestige friendly to celebrate 10 years at the Amex? What?

Very very underwhelming

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Yes indeed, l'll have to treat myself to a lesson in idiocy.

Wrong board mate. This is the BHA fans board, we don't do things like that here.

Is this the first time we've played a home match on the same day as Pride?

So the likes of you and I won’t be able to return home on the Southern (Brighton to Southampton) Bullet Train.

I thought Pride had been cancelled this year - or have I got that wrong?

Not wrong it's cancelled

It was cancelled yonks ago

I thought it was going ahead but without the procession, Preston park and Kemp town are still happening I thought?

My mistake, the website still looked like it was happening.

Other than the fact that Japan is on the red list and therefore if he does fly in after the final, a 10 day quarantine period is required.
So will miss Burnley away at least also,

Bullet train!

A few seasons ago, after spending the night at my bro in law's in Dorset, l took it to get to a home game at the Amex, there seemed to ba station stop every few hundred yards, it took so long that by time we reached Portslade l abandoned the train in favour of the 49 bus!
