Algorithm isn't working. New manager isn't working. But Barber OBE will be on talkshit this week telling the world how we're the best run club in the world. Deluded
I get annoyed about it because I'm a sad individual. The history books for example will forever show Brentford on Boxing Day was a 30,000+ crowd, making it one of the biggest in the history of the club (due to 30,000+ only becoming the norm for the past 7 seasons).
Reality is there was no more...
None of that matters though compared to being able to say in a shiny brochure to potential advertisers that the Amex was at 95% capacity for 100% of games in the 2024-25 season. The same reason why tickets sold are used for attendance figures rather than actual attendance
Forgot to post my weigh in on Friday because I was so shocked I nearly fainted.

Eight pounds down in three weeks. I cannot believe quite how much difference not drinking any alcohol makes.
Like others...
The last train up the Brighton Mainline to London is 00.02
If the penalty shootout isn't done until 11pm, it's going to be fun trying to get every Brighton and Chelsea fan who needs to be on that train otherwise they are stranded back from Falmer within an hour
No matter what Paul Barber's...
I liked that Everton have a shithouse streak in them. Pickford flicking the Vs at home fans. The piss taking goal celebration.
As has already been said on this thread, if it was our players doing it (remember Neal Maupay?!) we'd love it.
Didn't Enciso wave goodbye at West Ham or another recent away game? It has definitely happened at least once since the start of December, possibly twice.
Might just be a man who wants to be the star of a show trying to get attention.
It will never cease to amaze me how a chap in Sweden can get so angry about Brighton & Hove Albion football club because a manager from Italy outperformed his favourite manager from Birmingham
Long may it continue
This. We will have played Chelsea 18 times in eight years by the time the Premier League game against them at the Amex is out the way
Would much rather have drawn anyone from outside the Premier League (home or away) who we haven't played for a while. Chelsea is just a boring, boring draw for...

This is going much better than my November efforts. Amazing what difference Dry January can make. Already looking forward to piling it all back on instantly after 10 pints, a kebab for lunch and a pizza for dinner at Forest...
If there is one thing Tony Bloom and Paul Barber OBE can't stand, it is being told their football club has done something wrong. We've seen that in the way the club ignore any rulings which criticise them from the Independent Football Ombudsman, even going so far on occasions as to release their...
Losing to Charlton was a shitshow. As was losing to Villa with an Under 11s team out and Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup later that season. And drawing with League Two Newport County the following season
Can someone lend Paul Barber OBE a copy of Build a Bonfire to read, complete with a little post-it note reminding him there are 72 other clubs outside the Premier League and many more further down the pyramid?
I wouldn't share with him, given an Albion fan of over 40 years who sits a couple of rows in front ended up with a ban for the final few games of last season a when she told an Arsenal fan in the home end exactly what she thought when they celebrated a goal
Not the sort of firework which you...
So what you're saying is the reason the club make you list on the ticket exchange or share with a MyAlbion+ Member is because it's the only way they can make money out of the situation?
Mine just gone on the exchange as I can't make it at late notice. West Upper, single seat, middle of a row
Absolutely no chance of it selling given the timing and it's position. Whereas if I could just transfer it to my friend from work who would happily go but doesn't want to pay £40-odd to...
