    Why? Or do you think a DB pension is the right of all?

    [News] Prince Andrew interviewed about allegations

    What baffles me somewhat is how the Queen seems to be immune to any criticism whatsoever. Andrew and Charles are her kids. Andrew in particular seems to have been massively indulged by her despite being a total dick. I know we all have something of a blind spot where our kids are concerned but...

    [TV] This is going to hurt….

    That is bloody fantastic. Seemed like it was overlooked at the time a bit but I watched it after the first Line of Duty when everyone got excited about Mercurio. Keith Allen is brilliant - loved the swimming pool shaped like a vag. Would also recommend Cardiac Arrest which was Mercurio’s...

    [Sussex] A bit brisk tomorrow... *** Met Office RED weather warning ***

    Been having the guttering done on my house this week. Guy isn't coming tomorrow because he has to do someone's chimney. Good luck with that....

    That's the problem with Final Salary Schemes, you can't adjust the benefit. Its based on actuarial calculations driven by the discount rate and life expectancy. Because rates have been so low for so long all these schemes are running at massive deficits. In the private sector these were closed...

    [Politics] Strike!

    Ah yes. My heart bleeds for the overworked lecturers on taxpayer subsidised final salary schemes which are running at a massive deficit. Discount rates are so wildly out of kilter with reality that it makes this dispute fatuous. And as for "real terms pay", I think you'll find nurses have...

    Yep and there's a massive sense of entitlement with it. I recently read a diatribe by a grad on LinkedIn who couldn't get a job even though she's got a First Class degree. No comprehension at all that the world of work requires more than just an academic qualification to employ the right person.

    [Albion] Media darlings

    For me. Leicester (for some reason Brendan Rodgers is still regarded as an up and coming manager) Leeds (Bielsa is the greatest manager ever and football would not have existed without him) Liverpool (I still think the media are nervous even though Hillsborough was over 30 years ago. The...

    [Albion] Has Dunk peaked?

    I thought they were wrong as well. Burn was at the top of his game when we sold him. Can’t help feeling there was a tiny bit of sentiment in thinking Dunk would replace him again because he has been such a great servant to the club. Debate the decision as much as you like but that was a very...

    [Albion] Has Dunk peaked?

    Be interesting to see what GP does on Saturday, I’m not sure Duffy will play. A back four of Lamptey, Veltman, Webster and Cucurella has a very GP feel. I’d love Duffy to play though - just so he can kick that **** Rodriguez off the park. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    [Albion] The occasional disappointment...

    The fact that we are all so disappointed says it all for me. I came away annoyed we didn’t get something after two stupid mistakes. How times change Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

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

    Not for me I’m afraid. Yes Webster was in front of him but it was too much to make up and Elanga was moving at pace. Whichever way you look at it - Dunk made a bad error. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    [Albion] Player ratings vs Man Utd (a)

    Interesting marks for Bissouma and MacAllister. I was at the game and thought they played pretty well. Our weakest player by a mile was Dunk. Moder and Cucurella we’re superb. And we ain’t gonna keep Lamptey Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    [Albion] Has Dunk peaked?

    Given the way Burn handled Lukaku and the way Dunk played tonight against an equally strong strike force, I can’t help thinking we may have made a mistake. I so hope not. If Dunk is still carrying an injury he shouldn’t have been playing. I think he was just caught out. Sent from my iPad...
