His wonder goal on Saturday reinforced the fact that Kaoru deserves much better than the predictable and uninspiring re-working of the Bissouma/Tequila song which every other feckin club seems to have a version of for in-form players with three syllables in their name - granted this tune will be...
He more than deserves a song and we want to make him feel loved so howsabout this to the tune of 'Fernando' by Abba (hopefully sufficient numbers of the young 'uns will know the tune too!)
He keeps scoring goals for you and me and De Zerbi - Leandro!
... simple and hopefully memorable enough...
Generally really impressed with Mat, love his attitude, think we're lucky to have him & hope we can move on from constant references to his supposed 'lack of height' - just checked and he's slightly taller than the great Pat Jennings - a world class keeper who was always affectionately known as...
Was expecting to hear the familiar/uplifting/fitting strains of 'Praise You' yesterday after that cracking victory - unless my old ears are decieving me, this didn't happen... bit odd & hope they aint messing with a the post-victory formula - correct me if I actually am going a bit mutton ;)
Will be in Edinburgh next Sunday so just wondering if there are any Albion fans in the city planning to gather somewhere to watch the game at midday & if so, where? Cheers!
Any suggestions on best pub atmosphere in Brighton for N. Ireland v Wales on Saturday?? Might just settle for my local, The Constant Service, but if there are any other options you lot are aware of (apart from King & Queen - not a fan), would be interested to know... cheers!
So gutted for the lad that every time he's hitting a great run of form, he's got crocked... I know our minds are on other things at the present time, but really hoping Solly will be part of things next season and beyond - anyone heard any news on how he's doing on his return to full fitness??
After what was generally a great day at the Amex yesterday, as an Irish adopted Brightonian with family over for the weekend who I'd brought to the match (duly converted - they loved it!), can't say it was a great experience for us to hear quite a sizeable group of drunken Albion 'fans'...
Need to choose my words carefully here as I know fatwas can be issued in Sussex if you're critical of Harveys but why the hell is it so inconsistent?? Pre-match yesterday, our group of 3 ale-heads left a Harveys pub in Lewes after one very ordinary/kinda rubbish pint (their 'IPA' tastes EXACTLY...
Apologies if someone's already thought of this but surely thousands of us singing LuaLua to 'Louie Louie' would sound ****ing great!

“Paddy is as gifted a footballer as I have ever seen. Some players can see a pass, but not dribble. Others can dribble, but not see a pass. Paddy can do both,” said Strachan. “And, I have got to say, watching Paddy is one of the best things in football.”
Amen to that, and dare I say it, Wee...

... an article that Paddy believers will appreciate, albeit with a deep sense of loss that he aint doing this in an Albion shirt...
From match report:
"Notts responded magnificently and through the brilliance of Paddy McCourt created several chances.The best of which fell to Garry Thompson who was played in by the Northern Ireland international but failed to produce enough contact to level up the scores."
... nice reminder...
Sorry if this has been covered before but I find it irritating that they've suddenly decided not to name our subs before ko on match days... not all of us have smartphones, I want to know who we've got in our armoury on the day and we should also be able to give our subs waiting in the sidelines...

"The thing with Gus is that its ALL about Gus" as a club insider told me while he was here... think this is borne out by current events... really glad such a character isn't at the helm anymore...
Just wondering if any of you knowledgable NCSers can recommend a Brighton outlet that would give you an honest and accurate valuation of an item of gold jewellery... aware that there's a fair few chancers out there who would be out to fleece you! Ta
Sorry if this has been mentioned on here before but apparently this fella is a diehard Albion fan and wants England to host the 2030 World Cup... two things in his favour I suppose but he's still a dyed-in-the-wool FIFA man...
A while back in my local, I got chatting with a local councillor when he began enthusing about the wonders of Harveys as he proudly supped on a pint of the aforementioned local brew. I casually commented that I knew it was verging on sacrilege in these parts, but I personally felt that London...
