Does anyone know how to repair one of these?

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

If I was to stand as a BNP candidate in the council elections in Bradford would I get more votes than a conservative candidate in Withdean?

Does anyone know if Albion had a match postponed on Feb 16 1985?

Tim Carder's official history mentions that the Goldstone crowd was low the previous Saturday (Feb 9) because ice closed the East Terrace. The next game was Feb 23. Was 16th perhaps the date of the FA Cup fifth round? Or was there a big freeze?

Anyone with a programme from that season who can tell me?

It sounds like [MENTION=118]Hiney[/MENTION]'s Albion programme website isn't top of your bookmarks list, which is something you need to rectify immediately - Seagulls Programmes

It was FA Cup fifth round day.

We were due to play at home to Blackburn Rovers who reached the fifth round, losing to Manchester United.

It would probably have been cancelled anyway. No matches survived in the south that day.
