    Budget 2015

    Oh Gideon, sir, thank you so much for sharing some of the crumbs from your table with us poor peasants. I will save the penny you have cut from the price of my weekly pint until I have enough to buy a new cap that I can doff when you are driven by in your chauffeured limousine, and of course, if...

    Don't worry about us, we are only supporters.

    Assuming, as seems likely, the Watford game is changed, it will mean that we have only had twelve Saturday home games this season. Given that there always seems to be several people on here who are unable to get to midweek games, the cost of a season ticket when you can only watch just over 50%...

    What was wrong with our first (disallowed) goal?

    If CMS had taken the two easy chances he had in the first half none of this would have mattered!

    *** PLAYER RATINGS vs WOLVES ***

    I'm inclined to agree with that last comment. Five or six changes every time, players playing out of position and a very defensive set up from the start. Shades of Hyypia?

    That ref vs Wolves

    Today's ref was ordinary. He could have booked several Wolves players but the yellow cards he did give were correct. The biggest criticism today should be aimed at whoever decided to water the pitch before the start and at half time. Dunk's booking was a direct result if home slipping over...

    non renewals

    I'm afraid those in charge at the club have to take responsibility for any major downturn in season ticket sales next season. The appointment of one of the most inept managers I have seen in nearly sixty years of watching the Albion, coupled with a bunch of summer signings who, with few...

    Name the team

    Shouldn't you have added the word racist to the description of the "followers"?

    Chelsea - cheating bunch of FANNIES (again)

    Chelsea-Just about the most unpleasant bunch of whining cheats ever to disgrace a football pitch!

    [Albion] Walking Football - Albion in the Community

    Just back from tonight's session at the Arun Leisure Centre. Very enjoyable. I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking of having a go. Next session is Thursday 12th at 6p.m. -and it's free!

    Class O'Grady

    Yes, O'Grady is not perfect but he does offer something we have lacked all season: someone who not only challenges for long balls but also wins a good many. His ball inside the defender to Lua Lua was as good as any we have seen. His performances in recent games simply reinforce how clueless...

    Chris O'Grady's Cameo last night

    He did exactly what was required at that stage of the game and proved again that he is streets ahead of Best in what he brings to the team.

    How do you rate Chris Hughton so far?

    Six at the moment ; hopefully things will continue to improve and he'll be worth a seven at least by the end of the season. Oh by the way, that's based on Hyypia being a two!

    Tactics against Bolton

    Stop them scoring. That way we can't finish the game any worse off!

    Qatar 2022: Fifa taskforce says November/December is only option

    Seeing as Sky run football in this country it won't do much for their pre-Christmas schedules. I can see us having wall-to-wall Conference games while the Workd Cup is on!

    Leon Best: The Poll

    If he plays on Tuesday and is as poor as he was on Saturday, I think O'Grady would have every justification to want out.

    O'Grady. Sorry folks. Fat fingers.

    Best? He's either unfit or just totally lazy. Either way, he should not be keeping O'Grady out of the team. What summed it up for me was, ironically, Calderon's first goal, when he laid the ball off on the left wing and then virtually stood still, presumably admiring everyone else running...

    The lull before the storm?

    For many of my nearly sixty years of going to the Albion the lead up to kick-off meant a knotted churning stomach in anticipation of what was to come. Even in the bad years I still couldn't wait for the next game. This season all of that tension has gone; it's a case of " oh well, I might as...

    John Shepherd

    Never an outstanding player but hard working and worth his place at the time. Clough only got five in the first game(9-0) and four in our home game, which we lost 6-4! At the end of the season we finished above Midflesbrough!

    COG OUT!! and BARBER IN !

    Thanks to those who went for the updates but if that's all he managed to say it must have been a pretty uninspiring meeting? Interesting that he said COG and Baldock were additions not replacements for Ulloa. Did he say who was the replacement?
