So footie takes the perfect break, and lovers of bat 'n ball need not feel any despair. Well, not before 11.00 on Friday.
I need some encouragement here as I see no weakness in the Aussie team.
England have declared their XI. No surprises:
England XI: 1 Zak Crawley, 2 Ben Duckett, 3 Ollie...
Now, any sane NSCer (surprisingly most of us) know this is rubbish
We can obviously do better...
Anyway, what is it with football fans ? Quite a number have taken the above as gospel. Fact. As indeed happens in a bigger way with more plausible rumours.
It is a micro insight into the wider...
To me, it seems like this season started years ago. Two halves, a World Cup, and Albion retaining interest deep into and up to the end.
I do wonder if there has been a better one for folk here. From an Albion perspective, probably not. But from a general perspective the standard has been high...
For some hopeful reason, I thought all the games were shown. May be a bit dull if Everton go ahead.
The TBC game is interesting. It should be Villa v Albion given they are challenging for the Conference
They'll probably give it to an already qualified Manchester United.
Looking in Twitter, I am more glad than ever, and I'm glad enough as it is, that I don't support (loose term) a big six/seven (delete as app) club.
Some of the Irish Fergie chat is nauseous and, to use that popular phrase, deluded.
It's as if we are a charity shop that folk come and spend a...
We all have 'senior' moments. Some occur when we are not 'senior' as well.
My best of the year occurred yesterday when I went to the counter at my Post Office over the road.
I asked the assistant 'Do you sell stamps ?'
Has to rank pretty high in the dumb questions stakes.
Can anyone do...
Interesting one. Nothing affected the result as we were thumped good and proper.
Ref had a very tidy game. Only one questionable and that went in our favour. One of the Everton bookings looked a little harsh.
The lino in the first half would have had more focus had it been a close match. A...
I recently signed up to the Daily Telegraph free subscription three month offer. It's not really my kind of editorial and the coronation coverage has been nauseous. I really have started to notice the Tory bias as well. I'm not inclined towards newspapers with any political bias, even a line...
To corrupt a quote from FIFA's most esteemed..
'Yesterday I felt Wolverhampton Wanderers, today I feel West Ham United'
Three points lost for an opponent is as good as three points for Albion right now. I find myself watching all the games that affect us and supporting the teams that can help...
A quick number crunching analysis has shown how well Albion have done this season in an even stronger light.
Below are the minimum points needed for qualification since Albion arrived upstairs
2022-56 (7th)
2021-62 (7th)
2020-59 (6th)
2019-57 (7th)
2018-54 (7th)
With seven games to go, Albion...
Forgive me for starting a thread about it, but I have worries of an emerging entitlement among some of our supporters. It seems to be creeping in, and it is a worry when you consider all we have been through to get to this point. The one thing I’ve rarely found among our supporters is...
Are there any fans on here in our down under club ?
I'm just beginning to get into it now it's on BT Sport.
I chose St Kilda as my team. Top of the league at the moment, although I suspect not for long. Hardly a fashionable team. I chose them because they were once known as Seagulls and appear...
