We’re giving up our regular bridge night to be there. Too many Thursday night games this season but the Albion come first in that decision every time.

Joking apart, I missed this by minutes as I arrived at Victoria just after it had happened. There was a damaged vehicle and an injured person in the road in Buckingham Palace Road (being tended to by paramedics) and one of the horses was being held by the pavement by a bystander. There were...

It looks like Sky have now sensibly cropped the picture used - unless my screen is doing the cropping.

That was one of many regular haunts and my original favourite. Not sure I ended up with a particular regular in the end, but probably got no further than the No Name most evenings. As you say, pretty much a pub on every corner. Happy days!

We used to be the other end of Toronto Terrace, beyond Southover Street. Pub crawls were great until it was time to head home and you’d ended up at the Greys. 😂

They just call them Missions. https://labour.org.uk/missions/ Rather than just accept what the MSM tell you, that took 3 seconds and Google (I’m a slow typist on my phone).

I’ll be astounded if it doesn’t. Last away of the season or not, there won’t be a big rush for this one.

I really hope not. That’s the only midweek I can’t make. Who do I need to lobby, as it’s obviously really important that I’m not inconvenienced. :jester:

I’d always thought that once the ball is in play, they can’t just hold each other. Wissa has no interest in where the ball is, just in preventing Dunk from moving. I can’t see how it isn’t a foul by Wissa. It’s not American Football where it seems you can take out anyone anywhere on the pitch...

I used an air rifle at Scouts a couple of times. Used a shotgun twice - once shooting at ducks where I missed every time and once at clay pigeons on a works do when I claimed the trophy for best shot. No desire to fire one again.

Gordon missed the ball coming from behind. How on earth can that be a penalty?

And those of us born in 62 will be 62 this year.

I had a local retailer try it on recently when I was paying a large sum. I gave them several opportunities to change their mind and kept advising them it was actually illegal. They stood their ground up to the point of me presenting my card for the payment, when nothing was said but they didn’t...

Shame it’s not going so well for Worthing….

Good to know, thanks. We cut it fine quite often but have always got in so far (though sent round the back several times).

They continue to let in disabled drivers to the rear compound. I thought they just sent us round the back when the front is full.

I’ve loved every minute of it. I only did the one away trip due to lack of holiday and funds, but what a way to do it. Cruise ship to Amsterdam and winning at their place that I never expected to see the Albion play in in my lifetime. Really special trip. Pedro’s goal against Marseille was...

I’m guilty of this, too ☹️

For that third goal, as soon as the ball went to the Roma player outside the box, I spotted the three players who were unmarked and thought a back post cross here and they’ll score again, which is exactly what happened. Terrible defending regardless of the offside decision. We seemed to defend...

Glad it wasn’t just me. I almost started a thread about him yesterday. He lost me early on when he said Boxpark was synonymous with beer-throwing. At that point I was out, but he then went on about the atmosphere at Palace and Arsenal (Arsenal, FFS!) and then said he was hurling abuse at the...
