For me, Gus is a legend, and I for one think it's superb seeing OUR manager on ITV1. And I can understand more of what he says that I can Gordon Strachan!

The special guest ale for tomorrow! They really could try a bit harder, couldn't they?

Depends on what's the make, model and colour of the car is. Reg number might be helpful. Oh, and what road is it parked in, exactly?

What do you think is meant by the last paragraph in that email?

I know it's all about tickets sold these days, rather the bums on seats, but watching the FA Cup highlights on ITV last night I thought parts of Old Trafford looked really empty. Maybe our real attendances were closer than these figures suggest as there certainly didn't look to be too many empty...

So where's the Dick Knight statue outside the Amex?

I start baking shit loads of bread pudding when there's even the slightest hint of snow. You might not have noticed, but there's a distinct shortage of dried mixed fruit at the moment as well. I don't even like bread pudding. I just assumed that everyone else did the same.

So what's happened to the Dark Star and Harveys stalls in the North Stand concourse? Didn't see them at the last match either. I enjoyed a of Hop Head. Is this as a result of the catering changes? If so, a sad loss.

I do hope the OP sits in front of me. Then I'll have a nice clear view of the game from my comfy padded seat once he's stropped off.

I will happily abide by the rules and remain seated for the majority of the game assuming that no-one directly in front of me stands up. If they do then I shall stand up too - I've not shelled out for season tickets for me and my two boys just so we can stare at arses of the blokes in front of...

No, I do recall some interesting encounters in the 80's but my recollection is that the Pompey matches were always much more hostile, with both sets of fans up for it. We even used to give Pompey and entire stand as they brought so may fans alone. Palace matches were never as exciting and never...

I'm not a wind-up merchant, just someone with a level head. Perhaps I am a f***ing idiot. I'll take that as your considered opinion.

That's a relief to hear in some way as I've been getting a bit embarrassed by all the kids coming on hear creaming their boxers in anticipation for tomorrow's showdown.

I'm really not sure they do. I think that it's a rivalry that we manufactured over an episode that took place 30 years ago that they had no doubt long forgotten about, or weren't even aware of in the first place. When I first watched Brighton, we weren't rivals in any way. Portsmouth was always...

To be honest, I'm not sure it is. Ive been supporting Brighton for some 35 years and I've witnessed several Palace matches, both home and away, and I'm convinced that we make more of the rivalry than they do. To the point where is almost smacks of desperation and becomes a bit embarrassing. I...
