I'd quite like some money back in the way of a refund on my season ticket.
Some back of an envelope calculations:
20,000 season ticket holders paying £35 per game (on average) for 5 games would amount to £3,500,000. Which is quite a lot.
The club income each year recently has been around...
So, we have a space for a 'home-grown' player and to fill it you would need to English and not under contract to any other team as of now.
I am available. I mean, I'm 42 and not very good at football, but if the space is going spare then why not?
Alternatively, a raffle? Or put it on e-bay?
Empty seats for a pound at half time.
Get the catering staff to sell pies, hot dogs and the like in the stands during the game- baseball style.
Sell coffee/snacks to the cars queueing on the A27 on matchdays.
Jukeboxes in the concourses.
Give anyone willing to pay £40k the last 5 minutes in...
This bar has been weird for a while. It started life as the East Stand Brasserie and that was great initially as hardly anyone knew about it and it was a comfortable place to have a post-match pint.
Then it became a 'sports bar' and things became a little weird. The staff would make people...
I met Robert Rankin at the last one and he is a lovely guy. Didn't want any money for signatures or photos like the TV stars, just wanted to sell copies of his books (I did buy one). Also local, lives near Preston Park I think, and wrote a book set in Brighton. Worth looking out for him if you...
Hello all. Cheers for starting this thread Biancazzurro, I have saved loads of money and effort over the last few years thanks to NSC's panini fans.
Need:

What about if we all just swore a lot. I mean, it is always funny when you hear "the referee's a w#####' and similar on the tv. If the North Stand sang something similar but directed it at Sky or Murdoch and repeated it 5 or 6 times during the game then Sky would think twice before putting us on...
I thought we should have contested. Even if the goalie just caught it a striker on the scene would have prevented the continued time wasting. Rolling to his own feet then not kicking it until Manu (I think) closed him down was rude in that context.
Back in the day going to a bookies was a real experience.
Firstly, the windows were blocked out with drawings of jockeys on horses and a man kicking a ball (for fear that people might catch sight of the inside and become gambling addicts) so when you walked in you were entering blind. For some...
Great to see Lua Lua getting 90 minutes these days. Not sure if it is more trust from the manager or improved fitness or some other reason, but with him on the pitch the game is much better to watch.
Regarding his defending, I would not put him on the halfway line, I would have him somewhere...
I'll say it quietly, but the service in ESU (pre-match, about 7.00) was OK. I enjoyed my chicken + chorizo pie and the steak pie guys were happy. The guy knew how to work the till and was able to explain why contactless didn't work (over £15 he said).
Bit of a long queue and I was annoyed that...
I would do the following:
Bring Turkey into the EU and put some troops on the border they have with ISIS.
Give the Kurds a country. They have been in charge of Northern Iraq for decades now anyway.
Use troops in Turkey and Kurdistan to shore up ISIS borders.
Wait for the Syrian civil war to...
Anyone know if it was crucial? Did the game end because it was scored?
Goalie saw the takers reaction and thought it was job done. Already one he will never forget and doubly so now that it is all over the interweb!
I have not eaten in Erawan yet but we had a takeaway the other week and it was lovely. Really good. There is a wine-selling-shop called Symposium next door for all your BYOB needs.
Shanaz would be my choice for Curry. Good food and friendly staff.
Palin is always nice too. Not quite so keen...
I thought it was pretty hard as it goes.
Firstly it looked like a tree diagram question which would have thrown many candidates as the branches would have had 'n' and 'n-1' as denominators.
If they realised it was a case of multiplying (6/n)x(5/n-1) and making that equal to 1/3, it is then...
