    [Misc] Bicycle wheels

    After months of trouble and my third broken spoke I’m going to get some new ones. Never bought them before. How much should I pay? I’ve got a two year old alloy Cannondale road bike with disc brakes that cost about £1200. I commute through west London maybe 50 miles a week and go for the...

    [Albion] What if we've peaked?

    What if beating Ajax away and Marseille at home was the peak of the Brighton and Hove Albion experience and we will now slowly return to being an upper mid table Championship side? It feels like that.

    [Albion] Steve Foster looking at a kangaroo

    There is a brilliant Twitter account which scans old football programmes and magazines and posts the highlights. They’ve found one of uncertain vintage in which Fozzie is photographed with a blue and white (I assume) kangaroo sent by an Australian-based Brighton fan. Anyone know Niki Hassett...

    [Cricket] Rob Andrew gets top ECB job

    …according to the Telegraph he’s been chosen as MD of professional cricket at the ECB. The paper describes his time at Sussex as a “mixed bag”. Presumably it means a bag that’s been emptied of all the good stuff, had some food waste put in it, and then mixed.

    [Albion] Brighton and Hove Albion v Manchester City 24/05/23

    This will be a weird old game. Both teams will be, to a degree, emotionally and physically spent. Neither side will really want to be there. Yes we could still confirm Europa League with a point or even aim at fifth with a win. But will either side truly be that bothered?

    [Food] Where on earth can I have lunch on Saturday

    In Brighton, or Hove. Central-ish but I'm not that fussy. Me, Mrs COPB, my mum, and two kids aged 10 and 6. I've been looking and *everywhere* is bloody booked. Any ideas, NSC?

    [Albion] “Fine margins”

    Was the marketing slogan for the new kit dreamed up a few weeks ago by some GENIUS who predicted we’d either stay up or go down by a small number of points? I bet it was.

    [Albion] European places

    If Arsenal win the Europa League (don't laugh, stranger things have happened) and they also finish outside the top 5, and City or United or Spurs win the FA Cup and inside the top 5, there will be EIGHT European places up for grabs next year. Not beyond the bounds of possibility, with a...

    Westminster attacker: Sussex link

    A new thread on this because it transpires he was called Adrian Elms. He used to live in Ashford Road in Eastbourne. This is a blatant blag for my work, I'm afraid, but I hope NSC will forgive it. If you knew a large black bloke by this name in that town, would you get in touch by PM? Thanks.
