    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2024/25 Edition

    Yes, I believe our allocation was just 175. Genuinely gutted that I can't go on Friday. I've loved watching the Hill this season and seeing how the club is striving to progress on and off the field. Gary Mansell is a fine coach. Last night showed how well he has drilled and organised the...

    [News] Chris Kaba .. Justice served ?

    Wouldn't be surprised if a number AFO's turn in their tickets and ask to be returned to regular duties. The officer has faced criminal charges and been acquitted. That should have been the end of it.

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2024/25 Edition

    Great evening at Leylands Park last night. The ground as wonderfully noisy as I've seen and heard it in years. The club pulled out all the stops too, putting on extra food and drink outlets and opening another turnstile to get people in quicker. Margate probably shaded the first half but...

    [Albion] Matt O Riley [26/08/24 - sings on a 5-year deal]

    Maybe with a full pre season...etc. we might get a player. But from what I've seen this season, Rutter is nailed on for the 10 role. He has the pace, physicality and ability to drive through the centre that O'Riley completely lacks. Nothing signing and wouldn't be surprised or disappointed if...

    [Albion] BHA retro mash-up shirt

    Eye bleedingly hideous. Just No.

    [Football] Love This. Suck sh*t Potter

    This. Genuinely indifferent to him now. Perhaps though, among all his pish about history lessons and an easy life, he's now appreciating what he had whilst he was here.

    [Albion] Carlos Baleba

    Absolutely this and watching him play, it's remarkable to remember that he only turned 21 in January given how he's carried the midfield; and by extension, the team this season. A physically strong, robust, technically adroit and versatile player. His development has been remarkable. Oh...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Ham United *** Official Match Thread ***

    Whoever else we sell in the summer, we must do everything possible to hold on to Carlos for another season.

    [Travel] Newcastle to Brighton direct train service

    In the early 1980's, there used to be two daily services that left Brighton at 09:20 and 15:00. Called at Reading, Oxford, Coventry, Wolverhampton, Crewe, Stockport and Manchester. There was also a Sussex Scotsman service from around 1988 IIRC, that left Brighton around 13:15 that ran to...

    [Albion] Potter signs for Sat.

    Confess I'm now entirely indifferent to Potter. He got pelters when he came back with Chelsea, and that's fair enough. But RDZ took us to another level, so who now cares? Maybe Potter now he realises the patience and support he was afforded here. I get why Cucurella, Trossard and Caicedo...

    [Albion] Brentford Beam Back at the Amex

    Any early leavers?

    [Albion] Brighton fans: just the same whiney b*tches as Chelsea, Arsenal, and Man Utd's fans.

    Interesting point. I'd say we were seeing season on season incremental improvement under Potter. That improvement and, (pro tanto) expectation rose under RDZ. My view (rightly or wrongly) is that TB would wish to see that incremental improvement also. I see no progress under Hurzeler. No...

    [Albion] Brighton fans: just the same whiney b*tches as Chelsea, Arsenal, and Man Utd's fans.

    Does there come a point when we get to stop 'being grateful' and are allowed to expect improvement?

    [Albion] Have you ENJOYED this season?

    On balance, no. The pish has outweighed the positives. Nothing like the same visceral excitement I got from watching RDZ's teams.

    [Albion] Home game v Liverpool date change

    And six will have been played on weeknights with all the associated transport aggrevation. Over 31%. Monday and Friday night games are an abomination. Whilst I've renewed ST for next season, a repeat in 25/26 means I won't bother again unless there's a dramatic (and highly improbable)...

    [Albion] Home game v Liverpool date change

    Absolute bollocks that our last home game of the season is a shan evening kick off.

    [Albion] Everything is so negative at the moment !!

    Best we've ever had. So from that perspective, yes he was.

    [Albion] Everything is so negative at the moment !!

    This. Success breeds expectation. It's perfectly possible to have (and expect) high expectation of the journey forward whilst remembering where we came from. Progress may not be linear, however, I very much doubt TB subscribes to the 'Meh, good enough' school of thought. For me, we chose...
