You are to attend a séance with Madame Arcati. She shall call upon the spiritual entities :angel: of Mike Bamber, David Bellotti and Sarah Watts :angel:. Each of them shall predict that the Seagulls will once again achieve the trip down Wembley way in 2018. Especially now Utd have 'The Special...

It really underlines how important it is to adhere to the warning signals, dropped barriers, and not attempt to drive through via the un-barriered oncoming lane. It really doesn't matter if you end up a few minutes behind schedule. The awful thing is, had they decided to take a slightly...

Ah well, I think Birmingham may be outside the free travel zone, so the driver kinda has a point..........

I'm not one to normally namedrop but I had the current Barnet manager sat in front of me in WSU.

Drive a Brighton and Hove bus company double decker on to the white line marked by the referee and engage 'park'. This one should do the job...........

Integration with a supermarket was one problem Bolton faced when wanting to improve Burnden Park - they were lucky insofar as they could move out of town to the former Locomotive Works site at Horwich to build the Stadium formerly known as Reebok. Once your next door neighbour has party walls...

If it can happen at Stockwell then it can happen anywhere. It only needs a Police commander to have an armed response vehicle in the vicinity and the kind of stampede mentioned (which is not normal at any venue I've attended recently, although it may have happened in the past that is not...

I said we dropped our heads at 1-0, that's how they came so easily at us for the 2nd. You're misreading what I said, once the 2nd went in, then there were chances in the first half to get back to 2-1, but collectively the team didn't pick-up as required. I'd like to have seen more focus /...

The problem isn't so much what their Ultras brought into the ground, the problem is that such an organised stampede on a turnstile provides a really determined terrorist the once in a lifetime opportunity to get into a crowded area undetected. And that's not a snowflake response, that's a...

Putting quantitative ratings can only give a part view of the teams performance. What does a 10/10 score even represent? Quality is purely subjective and once you need to qualify a number with the comment that players are having a poor performance, a numerical score fails to explain why. The...

Yes I know all that - the South Sea Bubble I am alluding to is when those TV companies cannot get the revenue from advertisers or subscribers to offer silly money to clubs. There are ways and means of watching games without paying the subscription. That is the chink in the armour, through which...

Under current FFP rules, sport is notionally dead, buried, and forgotten. The league becomes a stitch-up where the 'haves' asphyxiate the 'have nots'. The Premier League has seemingly become a bear pit, not a sporting competition. It's not about winning trophies, it's about amassing wealth and...

You're right about getting millions and billions mixed up so I'll apologise for that. Even though my math might be a bit dodgy, for BHAFC to generate that amount of capital annually, we'd have to charge £ 830 per seat per game. For everyone. Utterly ludicrous. Way beyond what is sustainable in...

Liverpool Echo estimate Liverpool's squad value at £ 513.5 million pounds. That's a sizable chunk of what the EU is expecting the UK to meet as part of it's Brexit settlement. It would certainly exceed Brighton and Hove's annual GDP as a City. ( Liverpool (as a city) can only muster £ 65.8...

Except that Cameron now has 54 baying SNP Westminster MP's demanding a second independance referendum, when the Conservative Party is Unionist in every sense. I think Cameron will find the SNP a much more potent opposition than Labour have been, as they (the SNP) are much further to the left...
