    Brighton & Hove Albion vs Barnsley *** Official Match Thread ***

    It was the manner of the defeat not the fact we lost. That was awful, we just let the worst team in the league play how they wanted to. Spineless shambles this eve, no shape, tactically inept, too many players who didn't seem to give a toss.

    Goal or no goal? You decide...

    Went on a lino's course a couple of years ago and we spent quite a bit of time on this topic. The trainer set up this very picture and had us all standing in slightly different positions in the room. The only guy who made the correct decision was the one who the trainer had placed exactly in...

    Financial Fair Play penalties?

    I think the real problem is the timing of a club publishing its accounts. Until the accounts are published, no decision can be made about whether FFP has been breached so if a club's accounts run to say 30 June 2014 there is no way the accounts will be published until after the 2014/15 season...

    Yeovil Away - Sold Out

    11 of us staying in Sherborne Friday and Saturday night so hopefully the pubs will be fine! Looks to be quite a few so should be ok. Think we will try to get cabs from Sherborne to the ground as we will have to get a cab from Yeovil station anyway...

    Local Taxi firm Radio Cabs are attempting to recruit extra staff to provide extra Taxis for the trip from Yeovil Junction station to Huish Park on Saturday for the match against Queen's Park Rangers. Discussions have also taken place with local bus companies and extra buses are HOPED to be...

    Yeovil

    11 of us going and hopefully we will get special arrangements like QPR! And some of us complain about getting to the Amex! Miles out of town, no public transport, what idiots came up with this site for their football ground. According to Yeovil's website, both stations are 3 miles from ground...

    Are our political "leaders" liars or idiots ?

    So who do you think we should support - The Al-Qaeda backed Sunni rebels or the Hezbollah backed Alawite/Shi'a government? And which sides civilians are just collateral damage? Last I heard UK and USA were still fighting both terrorist groups but now apparently, Al-Qaeda are the good guys...

    strippers pre-match 70's?

    Anyone remember the Sunday lunch time strippers in the Ship, (think that was the name), on Lewes Road opp B&Q. Used to go back there after Sunday morning football late 70's, early 80's!

    Lee Clark - Knob or not?

    Can't see what Yeovil did wrong. Player wasn't injured, ref allowed play to continue. If anyone was a knob it was the goalie for kicking it out when he didn't need to.

    Lee Clark - Knob or not?

    Feigning injury or making the most of a minor injury to get the ball kicked out of play really winds me up. Most players only stay down whilst the opposition has the ball and is attacking in the hope some sucker will kick the ball out. It's totally abused and I would rather teams played on until...

    How hard is it to learn German?

    Isn't that because they aren't German? Usually Turks/Poles/Ukrainian etc. It is good to have a few local words but in all my visits to Germany, at least half a dozen, I have never really had to speak any German. In fact, if I try, the person I'm speaking to usually replies in English! Stick to...

    Tony Greig

    Came across this in an article by Vic Marks just after Greig died. Interesting to see how his England figures stand up to those of Botham and Flintoff. Not sure I would have put Greig in the same bracket, but his figures are pretty good! Packer's intervention, which was regarded by many as a...

    Fracking in Sussex? Fracking Firm Test Drilling in Balcombe

    It would be great if energy could all come from the renewal sector, but even in Germany, where they have gone for wind energy in a big way, they seem to be recognising its limitations now. http://thebreakthrough.org/index.php/programs/energy-and-climate/germanys-green-energy-bust/ "But...

    Please tell me who is in charge.....

    Given that we are missing Bridcutt, Bruno CMS and Orlandi at the moment, and Bridge and Hammond have moved on, it's hardly surprising that the team isn't playing as well as last year. There were effectively 4 dev squad payers involved on Saturday which shows how thin the squad is and the urgent...

    More Gus-related disclosures from Paul Barber; if this stuff bores you, do not open thread

    I appreciate what you are saying, but actually new business can hurt and in extreme situations, destroy a business. On many occasions in my job I have seen small businesses dash for growth without a business plan in place and although turnover increased substantially, in fact they actually make...

    North Laine pub then bus ?

    It's too noisy! You are right, there is a strange echo that makes conversation impossible. Given up on it. BTW, 28/29 drops off right outside the Swan, my favourite bus!
