Two years today since the legendary Ed Bassford, aka Lord Bracknell passed. Still miss his unique contributions, insight and cutting humour. A great man, deeply missed.
With love to Roz and the family if they happen to pass this way.
It is my son's 8th birthday on Friday and he wants to go to LEGOLAND on Saturday. This is fine, but I have just been reading the latest reviews on TripAdvisor :ohmy:
The main gripes seem to be the large number of closed rides, resulting in very long waits for the limited number of attractions...
Not sure if this has been on here before or not, but if you haven't seen it, it is well worth a few minutes of your time to sit back and enjoy.
A fantastic, fantastic effort and genuinely made me laugh out loud throughout. Great stuff.
...which key moments in matches involving the Albion would most likely have been affected?
I am no fan of VAR and think, like Japanese Knotweed, it will gradually undermine the foundations of the game and be impossible to get rid of once it has taken hold. I'm not looking forward to goals being...
In recognition of this season's league encounters, any chance the NSC super computer could be programmed to replace 'Palace' with 'PaLLace' each time it is posted?
In an uncertain world, it is reassuring to see And Finally Brighton & Hove Albion reclaim our customary graveyard slot...
Chelsea vs Huddersfield Town

May is looking increasingly like a dead woman walking. To be fair, she is seemingly made of tough stuff and I thought she would be gone 3 weeks ago and I reckon she will front up to any leadership challenge - unless the numbers of 'no confidence' letters make the maths impossible.
So if she...
Where have you been this summer that has offered appalling value for money or just downright terrible customer service, or even more spectacular - both, all at the same time? Where would you warn fellow NSCers to avoid at all costs?
My nomination is the Cracker Barrel - a restaurant in Lynton...
Contested once again between AFC Bournemouth, Brighton and Hove Albion and Southampton.
Two things in play here:
1) Who will win the 'head-to-head' South Coast mini-league (eg. most points gained in matches against the other South Coast clubs)?
and,
2) Who will finish highest in the Premier...
It seems impossible, but it was a year ago today, the 28th of July, that we lost our great friend and 'father of the Board' Lord Bracknell, Ed Bassford.
I'm not going to write or attempt to re-write a tribute to Ed - everything that needed saying was said on this thread, which now resides in...
Seemingly endless sunny days and balmy evenings - just like summers always used to be when I was a kid (even though they probably weren't); wall-to-wall football on the telly and England looking like they could go BALLS DEEP in the World Cup for the first time in years (even though they probably...
