Chris Hughton says this in pretty much every post-match interview I hear, win lose or draw. I like it. In a way, it sums him up. Always calm and respectful, never hyperbolic. And the grammar is slightly odd, which makes it charming. In fact, how about using it as the replacement for 'Were...

Is there any indication how well these are selling? I'm a STH trying to work out whether or not to wait for general sale, to book with non season tkt friends ...

"It's important to signal our ambition," said a club spokesman. BT are considering the offer.

Yuk - Winkelman gets honorary degree for "services to education through football" http://www.mkweb.co.uk/News/Celebrations/MK-Dons-chairman-Pete-Winkelman-recieves-honorary-doctorate-from-Open-University-20130606174640.htm Well, I guess he helped people learn that you don't have to earn...

(This thread is for Hamilton)

..., especially if you don't live in Sussex, this should interest you. I found out about it via the Sussex CCC twitter feed today. There's a (free) app called TuneIn, which carried radio stations, and they carry some feeds that have only been available on the internet until now. There are...

Just seen on SSN that the Champions League final in 2014 will be in Lisbon. Better start saving up. I hear Vicente is looking forward to it.

According to Southern website, a broken down train means trains can't travel from Lewes to Brighton at the moment I hope this gets sorted sharpish.

The thread about the lifespan of the stadium got me wondering about the naming rights. Do American Express own the rights in perpetuity? Or is it for a fixed length of time (as I think these things usually are)? If so, how long? This may well be widely known, but I don't remember ever hearing...

Idly looking at the NUFC website about the FA Cup match, I came across this price list, and had to smile at the upper age limit on Senior Citizen tickets. Is this a Geordie thing? Do they do you in at age 105, like Logan's run only later?

Shall we start the thread early? Route just announced and looks interesting for British riders. If you can stay with the climbers on the few mountain stages and put in some serious timetrials, you're in with a shout. Hello Wiggins and Froome...

... well, kind of. Remember when the Albion was basically a charity? Some of us signed up for an affinity credit card; the Club gets a percentage of everything I spend on the card. The expiry date is near, so my shiny new card has just arrived in the post. And it has the old Knight-era club...

There must be a handful of NSCers with big feet (you know what they say ...) who play football on astroturf. Well ... where do you get your astro trainers from?

... if it goes to Extra time and/or penalties? I was on holiday for the Sunderland game, so don't have that experience to draw on. As far as I can see, it'd be very tight catching the last trains, whether via Lewes or Brighton, even without queueing. So: leave before the end? is there a clever...

I can't be the only Albion fan who has thought about what they're going to wear when we finally have a proper home. So what are you going to wear on 6 August? I've always planned to wear this (awfully designed but very meaningful) Gulls Eye shirt which I'm pleased to say still fits me:

In another thread, I've been accused of blaming the banks for EVERYTHING. This is nonsense, and to prove it I'd like NSC to build a definitive list of stuff the banks are not to blame for. Remember, the more you add to this list, the more the bankers are OFF THE HOOK, which can only be a good...

I made a word cloud (on Wordle - Beautiful Word Clouds) based on the NSC Twitter feed (I couldn't find a way to do it with NSC proper). Here it is. http://www.wordle.net/show/wrdl/2941210/NSC I didn't learn much, but thought it looked quite nice.

Wouldn't it be great if you could buy an Albion replica shirt next season with no sponsor's logo on it? I think there's a case for making shirts available WITH or WITHOUT the shirt sponsor on it. And I don't think this is as dumb as it sounds. Bear with me ... 1. It has happened before. When...

A question for people who are getting a 'free' heritage stone, in return for contributing £250 or more to the Alive & Kicking appeal a few years ago. Are you just going to put your name, something a bit sentimental, a pro-Albion comment, abuse for Crystal Palace, or something else? Mine will...

With many NSCers having adopted Uruguay as their second team at the World Cup, in Gus's honour, I thought you'd be interested in this news item. It will give you something to discuss with Gus if you should bump into him tomorrow...
