    [Music] What's the best song you have heard today? Share it here.

    One of the greatest ever musical summations of American culture, way more accessible than Charles Ives symphony 4. The modern American riposte to Dark Satanic Mills. An evolution from Blake's social commentaries. Should be played before every Kennedy Centre performance. Could even be...

    [Albion] Sussex By The Sea - Video Suggestion For An Updated Version Video

    I'm a passionate Albion supporter and love singing Sussex By The Sea. Do you guys think the original early 20th century lyrics of Sussex By The Sea relate closely to how we feel nowadays? If you do, then this is not for you. If you don't, then I hope you like the ideas in the suggested...

    [Albion] Everton vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    My fav line from the commentator.... "and now the Brighton team passing the ball around like they are playing on Brighton beach" :-) :-) Brill start to the season.

    Mats Hummels

    Topic focus - I wish people would stop spraying these paint jokes around. Can it and put a lid on it guys! Hope I'm not stirring by saying this.

    [Misc] What Book are you Currently Reading?

    I'm reading a translation of Emmanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. He was from good old Kaliningrad by the sea! I recommend Chapter 4 ias it is a barrel of fun, just the thing to take your mind off a defeat by Aston Villa... an existential threat to mental health, if ever there was one.

    [Albion] Alexander Bah - right back

    Even though many of these jokes about Bah are rather woolly, we mutton get down if we can't ram this deal through. While we must take care to avoid being fleeced by Benfica, we should avoid being shorn of our current defensive capabilities. A bit of a gambol, perhaps? Then again, we are a bit...

    [Albion] Japan pre season

    Mid way point girst half: I'm loving the thrusting attacking football with the fast transitions.

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President

    I think I get what you mean. Many now believe that as Jesus was to Mary Magdelene so Trump is to Stormy Daniel. As for me, I think 'For he's a jolly good felon, for he's.... etc.'

    [Albion] Which former Brighton players were FAR too good for us at the time, but wouldn't even get in our reserve team these days?

    Great question. Pat Jennings for sure. Cap'n in mid 60s. Played 'centre half'. A muscular towering presence with an impressive jaw line. He was an accountant by trade. In the days before yellow cards, he knew how to 'deal with' opposition players who were too uppity in attack in a way that...

    [Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

    Very interesting analysis of FH's tactics by James Lawrence Allcott. He extols the creativity, flexibility based on how the opposition team members are positioned on the pitch and super smart use of space and reckons Albion are going to give their opponents a lot to think about this season...
