    [Albion] Women’s Football

    So I went along to the Albion Women’s game for the first time last night. I was expecting to come away saying saying ‘fair play, the standard really has come on, I was surprised by how good the football was’. I didn’t. I thought it was awful. I’m sure this will be an unpopular opinion, but I...

    [Albion] If we'd have lost at Hereford...

    Where do you think the Albion would be now? I think this is going to be an unpopular opinion, but I think we would be in pretty much the same position we are currently in. After we were relegated we were playing in front of 1-2000 people at Priestfield- would that have really been any lower...

    [Albion] We now have a BETTER chance of playing in Europe next year

    In my opinion. Having seen the levels of Roma last night, it is highly unlikely that we were ever going to win the Europa League. If we played at our best we could win a 2-legged tie against a side like that, but 3 times in a row? And then a final against Liverpool or someone? It was never...

    [Misc] Is there a person alive...

    Who still answers their telephone by stating their phone number? And if not, when did this die out? I don't think anyone has ever done it with a mobile phone, unless they were a complete maniac. But when did people stop doing it with landlines, and why? Or why did they do it in the first...

    [Albion] As far as goal celebrations go…

    Where does that one rank? I wasn’t at Hereford, which I’m guessing was probably the best, so for me Storer 68 is the best one I can remember. But last night’s was very good. Ali Mac’s last minute penalty against Man Utd was great, but penalties are different, it’s more relief than spontaneous...

    [Albion] My kids' Albion highlights vs mine

    I first went to the Albion on Boxing Day 1989 as an excited 9-year old, for a dreadful 0-0 with Pompey. I absolutely loved it, and I was instantly hooked. Until 2001, aged 19, my all-time Albion highlight was watching Dean Wilkins score a last minute free-kick against Ipswich to secure 6th spot...

    [Albion] Show yourself, Number 3.

    So the day is finally here. It's time for the prophesised 3rd Albion superhero to appear. We have waited so long, but now he (or she?) shall come. Mopman Canal Man ? No doubt there will be many claiming they are the prophesised 3rd, and we must all be on high alert to call out these false...

    [Albion] Canal Man

    Anybody else witness this outside the ground before kick off? Poor chap tried to take a shortcut but was too smashed to realise that it was a canal, not a road. One of the funniest things I’ve seen at football for a long time.

    [Football] So, knowing what you know now…

    Would you do that again? I don’t mean wind back the clock, as obviously we’d all do our first European away game again. But if we drew Marseille away next year, would you put yourself through all that again? I absolutely f***ing loved it. But I don’t think I’d do it again. Intense.

    [Finance] What is 'rich' in 2023?

    With all the economic woe around at the moment, I keep hearing about how the rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer, yet I don't know anybody who is getting richer. I'm fortunate enough to be in a fairly privileged position, I own a moderately successful company which until...

    [Football] (Very) small video editing job

    Hello NSC, I need someone to put together a youtube type video montage of about 3 minutes of footage from my son's under 9's team with some background music etc. I have no idea about this stuff and can't be arsed to learn how to do it myself- I reckon it would probably take a teenager who is...

    [Albion] The Metropolitan Police

    When the Met become a complete bunch of f***ing pussies, you know that football has changed beyond all recognition. 20 Met officers to remove one 16 year old kid at half time. Absolutely embarrassing. It used to take one £6 an hour steward to do that. All of them absolutely desperate to find...

    [Albion] Is this the most positive NSC has ever been?

    Just looking at all the threads on the main board, and almost every thread is positive. Has there ever been a time like this before? Even in the seasons where we walked League One I can remember a lot of "I WISH WE'D JUST GET IT FORWARD THAT'S WHERE THE GOAL IS" type of threads. NSC must be...

    [Football] Finalissima

    Anybody going to this tonight? Argentina v Italy at Wembley. McAllister is in the squad. It's barely mentioned anywhere on Sky Sports or mainstream media, but the game has sold out, so there is clearly interest from the Italians / Argentinians in this country. Excited to watch Messi in the...

    [Albion] Would a 17th placed finish in the Premier League next year constitute success?

    And would you be happy with it? It’s a tough one for me. At some point you have to try and push on, but all the time you stay in the Premier League, regardless of performances and results, you become more financially stable and more established, which should in theory help you move up in the...

    [Football] 5-a-side Thursday nights, Stanley Deason - need new players!

    I have a team that is constantly struggling for players. We desperately need more people. Ideally young, quick, fit people (people who are good at football would be nice as well). We could do with someone to play tonight, and then ideally people who are keen to play most weeks. Anyone...
