    [Travel] Dover Advice

    Hello NSC, I've done this as a separate thread as I'm looking for advice for myself and others only. Not a Brexit / blame the French etc space. Have a ferry booked for Tuesday. Has anyone used the ferry recently? How early are you getting there? How long are you waiting? Is it as bad as they...

    Watching the Albion in Vancouver

    This was a non-starter before given that The Championship is not broadcast in the bars here. But in case no one's heard we're going to be playing in The Premier League this season... (apparently we need a striker too in case you're REALLY out the loop). Come on then NSC, any suggestions??

    Unofficial: Newcastle v Villa

    Villas fixtures for March / April are pretty nasty AND include Wigan, Burton and Blackburn all away. Do you think they could actually go down? Especially considering they now don't have any strikers

    Watching the Albion in Vancouver

    Not a hostel, an airbnb, so a bit quieter. But the place definitely isn't littered with bars! And it seems as though a lot of places have food licenses, so standing is not permitted. I can see why we have our Brits abroad reputation now. It's because everyone else in the world is doing it wrong...

    Do you actually support Trump?

    "The way out of this is to engage and debate about what he's doing without belittling the people who voted for him because that will only disenfranchise them even further but he's making such a hash of it that it's difficult not to take the piss! " Definitely agree with this. However I must...

    Watching the Albion in Vancouver

    Gutted to learn there's no Albion bars here in Van! I arrived a few days ago and am looking for work / housing. I did manage to find a stream for the Barnsley game, but it was at on at 7 in the morning, so perhaps a bit early for a beer anyway. In actual fact, it doesn't appear that drinking is...

    Money spent on players in promotion push

    This is madness. What about Boro / Burnley last season? I guess Rhodes at 9million was more than our entire spend for the year, and possibly last year, too? Edit- ah thanks El Prez!

    Money spent on players in promotion push

    I've noticed that there has been the odd snipe at us this season from other fans that we have simply spent our way to our current success. Whilst we do have a very generous owner, I would consider this pretty unfair as our transfer dealings have typically been shrewd rather than a case of...

    Bhasvic? Any thoughts....

    Not sure if anyone has covered this already, but BHASVIC may suit some more than others. I was a student there about a decade ago (how?!) and it was great for me. Academically the college is great and everything was very good in general from my experience. One big difference between BHASVIC and...

    Any NSCers in Bristol?

    Just bumping this thread to gage any more interest. If nothing materialises I will be in cat and wheel and anyone is welcome to join. I'll be in a little blue and white number, unmissable

    Any NSCers in Bristol?

    Count me in if a consensus is reached. Did this happen for Derby? I was at the game but would be keen for boro

    Albion Pub in Bristol...

    Similarly to the London version of this thread (which I have unashamedly stolen the idea from), is there an existing pub in Bristol where albion fans gather for televised matches? Trying to persuade my friends, who are mostly not interested in football let alone the albion, to come and watch a...
