    [Football] Ha ha ha ha ha!

    Dyche‘s post match interview on MOTD2… ”Well I think like most people it seems to me in football, everyone thinks how unjust it is”. And that’s verbatim. Really, Sean? REALLY? The likes of Brighton and Brentford have had to sell our best players time and again to keep within the rules...

    [Albion] Brighton v Brentford date - Guessing game

    I've a Brentford supporting friend who's coming to the match. He's trying to second guess whether or not the game will be moved for TV. The Premier League website suggests April matches will be announced on 21st February, which is a problem for my friend, as his shift requests are pretty much...

    [Food] La Capannina - Closed?

    Super quick question. I was planning on eating at La Capannina the night before the marathon for a spot of carb loading. No reply on the phone. Reviews all peter out here in October. Does anybody know if it’s closed its doors? Thanks.

    [Help] Gentle fundraising request - For Rangers Ultra (protecting Kenyan wildlife)

    Hello everyone. Apologies for this brazen appeal for your cash, and at the worst time to be asking for it too. If this is beyond the bounds of good taste, I shan’t be at all offended if the moderators choose to remove it. However, if they’d like to go the whole hog and make it a sticky, I...

    [Misc] Fifa 22

    Couldn’t see any mention of it. Playing it now. Seems they have gone full tilt matching the AI to last season. Nobody gets past Bissouma and we need a dozen chances to put one in the net. Potter is beardless. Come on EA. Get with the programme.

    [Football] Safe standing trial for top two divisions approved

    Wonder if we’ll apply for a licence or not. Additional costs to instal units that will sell for less? Might not happen but I’d be in like a rat up an aqueduct...

    [Help] Plumbers! Help out a DIY doofus.

    Evening all. I’ve been up since four for work and a DIY task has emerged. Being generally crap at such things, I’ve learned over a lifetime of shift work never to take these things on when I’m shagged out so I’m just doing my research. Already I’m confused and yet this is probably the...

    [Albion] Expectation management

    Well. It’s quite the pit of despair here this evening, isn’t it? I posted this after the Sheffield United match but it rapidly vanished in the swirl of sacker v licker recrimination that followed. In the light of tonight’s match I’m going to go all “look at me” and give it its own stage, in a...

    No thread? Let’s begin with Wellbeck rolling around like he’d been caught in a Napalm drop to get the penalty.

    [Film] What’s your favourite “years and years” film?

    Following on from the excellent Stat Brother thread, let’s go completely the other way and look at nominations for best film that took absolutely bloody ages to unfold. Prison drama is a rich seam here. I can offer up Papillon (1973) and The Shawshank Redemption straight off. Over to you...

    Hello everybody, Many of you will know me from this site. I’m the mild mannered guy that staggered through two years of hosting World’s Hardest Creature and photographs you runners out there. Anyway, I’ve gone and done something a little foolish. I’ve signed up to participate in the...

    [TV] Eight Days (Acht Tage)

    Couldn't find another thread about this. Anybody watching it? All the episodes dropped at once so it's possible some of you have already watched it. For those not in the know, it's a German drama detailing eight days leading up to a comet strike on Europe. It's mainly set in Berlin. Mixed...

    [Albion] Football Whispers predictions

    Apologies that it’s yet another predictions thread but they don’t all seem to be in one place. https://whisp.rs/2YTTqS6 An altogether rosier assessment of our chances, with one relegation prediction and two nods for potential surprise package. Always liked Football Whispers. :)
