Anybody else think the old bloke has gone stark staring doo-llally with his idea of a World Cup every two years? Or perhaps some people think we don't have enough international breaks already - please put your heads above the parapet if you do!

Well done that man!
Just torn up a £20M contract because it isn't working out at Arsenal (where apparantly Arteta had persuaded him he wanted to build a team around him) and he wants to go home and pay for Corinthians.
OK, so he's trousered £20M from Arsenal from last season, and lord knows how...
Sorry, can't find the thread - or maybe I'm just imagining things in my old age - but wasn't there some talk recently about us having an interest in a Japanese player? Anyone put me right on that, or have any updates?
As a slight variation on the reslistic departures for next season, who do we think should be our next loanee star turns for next season? Maybe leave out those who were out on loan all lasrt season, as that's a slightly different question - concentrating on those who have yet to have had a...
Jensen Weir off on loan to League 1 Cambridge. Good news, another youngster out on loan. Good luck to the lad!

In such situations, a sample is taken, usually enough to make it hopefully representative.Thus NSC, for instance, is probably reasonably representative of Brighton fans as a whole. Roughly. 269 people is a sample of NSC and 75% of that sample was quoted.
To come up with the answer, "269 people...
Seems Leeds are after this fellow - release clause of £3.5 M. Worth a punt - and great fun if we nipped in ahead of Leeds!

No WAG info or highlight reel - sorry!
Arsenal are in advanced talks with Albion to make Maty Ryan's deal permanent in the summer. Sounds like good news all round - let's hope Arsenal don't get clobbered with a transfer ban!

I think we're all agreed it is a fvckin' nuisance, but does anybody know yet if Alzate and Mac are being hoiked off the South America (with no elite sport exemption on quarantine on return)?
Ditto Biss - will he be going to Mali (no idea what the quarantine rules for there are), and are any of...
Watch out - I received an email this morning inviting me to book my coronavirus jab. It was from the NHS -- or purported to be. I clicked to accept, put in details of name, address, DOB etc. - all fine so far. Then it asked for my card details to pay for the booking fee. I was suspicious, so...
Geoffrey Palmer has died, aged 93 - a good innings Sir! Not perhaps the biggest star, but an important part of many good things we've enjoyed over the years. RIP.

Yesterday I received a very realistic email purporting to come from TV Licencing, advising me that it was time to renew my TV Licence - press here to continue, etc., etc.
As I pay my TV Licence monthly by direct debit I thought this was a bit odd, so I contacted my bank - but they were unable...

If racist fans kick off with abuse, should the England team walk off, or wait for the ref. to call them off? Or just play on regardless?
(Surprised this topic doesn't seem to have come up earlier - mega apologies if fixtures. Poll to follow (if I can!))
Edit: Sorry about the 'R' in England -...
Trying to access the Victor Gyokeres thread, but am getting blocked by something called Cloudfare. The message given is:

Anybody else getting this - and anyone know why?
First game up on MOTD tonight - at least, Manchester City were. In terms of being discussed, Pep Guardiola said more about Brighton than the whole MOTD team put together. In fact, they're main point of interest about Brighton seemed to be when they were introducing the Southampton game...
