[Albion] Albion tour in USA

Brighton factually.....
I remember that match. Dunk had an issue with the keeper's gloves fitting his hands. He really never felt comfortable with the gloves. That is a lesson for all 3rd string goalkeepers in pro football. Make sure there are goalkeeper's gloves on hand that fit your hands in case you are called upon to play gk.
Yep, they more or less had a free kick straight away with shooting distance and did not even test him, strange.

Are you a weird culty obsessive like all their fans seem to be?

[Bit of background since that might come across as a bit aggressive otherwise, one of my best friends is a Sea Power fan, and I've somehow gone to about 4 of their gigs with her without ever being into them. I always feel like everybody else there is at a completely different, much better gig].
weird probably, wouldnt consider myself culty or obsessive though. my friends most likely have a different opinion.

The "Stateside Seagulls" (who are now recognised as an Official Supporters' Club by the Albion) have just sent out an e-mail in which they state:

"We are currently working with the club on planning events and meet-ups in Philadelphia, Atlanta, and New Jersey for each match."

I have no idea what that may entail.
The Stateside Seagulls have now sent further details which include pre-game meet-ups and an open training session at Rutgers University.

I'm pretty surprised the club haven't communicated this on a wider basis because presumaby there will be fans travelling from the UK who would be interested in these events?

Can you link to this? I'm going to the New Jersey game.

Slightly frustrating that the open training session is in NJ on the Monday, as am travelling from Philly to Atlanta that day for the game there.

Only just saw this, and glad I did. Registered for the Xfinity live pre-game shenanigans on the 22nd. Didn’t receive a confirmation of any sort, but assuming it’s all okay!

Yep, I'll be in Philly too, flying to Atlanta on the Tuesday.

Nobody can accuse the club of being overly communicative about the details surrounding this trip. :facepalm:

Well this is what I mean. There's basically liking Sea Power, and there's "being into" Sea Power.
It's like an unusually harmless cult.
I saw Pixies at a festival in Denmark in 2014. Similar feeling.

It was clearly a life-changing experience for the majority of the crowd, screaming along with every word like their lives depended on it.

For me, it was a fairly decent gig. 7.5/10.

I've had similar feelings on the two occasions I've seen Black Country New Road.
They're fine. But they don't particularly impress me and I don't feel the sense of catharsis that seems to be occupying everybody else there.

Which airline? If Southwest Airlines you can switch flights easily without a penalty. You might have to pay a difference in price but no penalty fees for changing.

Southwest Airlines has a non-stop from Philadelphia to Atlanta leaving at 4:50 p.m. on a daily basis. US$265.
