    [Albion] Sussex Uni Parking

    What has changed for the last two matches? Both games we have been in long queues coming down Coldean Lane then queues for ages to get into the car park. Seems to be as a result of the scanning of the tickets? Can’t be worth enough to block public highways the way it is. The steward doing ours...

    [Albion] “Er Palace”

    Fantastic effort from Richard Reynolds tonight. Almost couldn’t bring himself to say their name when announcing their double substitution so just went with a muttered “er Palace”. I’m future I will always call them Er Palace. Very apt.

    [Albion] Has football forgotten they are in the entertainment business?

    1) If I went to the theatre and one of the performers had a "technical issue", the show would go on regardless, come what may! The ref had a whistle, what else does he need to ref a football match. 2) Does every away team now use the "oh my head ref" to take minutes out of the game and spoil...

    [Albion] Leeds - worst team at the AMEX this season?

    Marginally worse than Newcastle for me. Bielsa seems to have run out of ideas. So open from the first minute. Against an Albion with a half decent striker we would have been 3-0 up after 30 minutes. If they carry on like that they will be looking at a battle to stay up. Was really surprised how...

    [Football] England tickets x2 - free to first to message me.

    I have two tickets for England v Albania at Wembley on Friday night but can’t go due to work. Happy to let them go to a good home for free. Message me if you want them.

    [TV] Dr Who - spoiler alert

    Surprised no thread already. Decent start to the new season I thought. Slow to begin with but it built well after a lot of jumping around. I liked the doggy. John Bishop was great. Promises more for this series I think.

    [Albion] 1901 Club sold out

    If you are still looking for seats in 1901 it has now sold out, but we have 3 seats we are looking to move on so just PM me if you’re interested.

    [Football] Snus - have you heard of it?

    I’m an old git who has never touched an illegal substance so no judge at all, but apparently there is a serious addiction problem in footballers to Snus, which apparently is some kind of tobacco product. It’s banned from being sold in this country but apparently is still widely used because it’s...

    Just finished watching this. Anyone else? Ending wtf?!

    [Albion] Has anyone got Covid from the football?

    Has anyone got Covid from either of the home matches so far? No angle just genuinely curious as to whether anyone thinks they have got it from going?

    [Albion] Trouble at the game today

    A few Watford fans reporting they got hit randomly outside the stadium. Anyone see anything? Never heard of this happening at the AMEX before.

    [Albion] Home office fan survey on policing at football

    [News] City of Culture 2025 - the runners and riders

    Who get's your vote? Derby shining out as the obvious winner I'd say :) EDIT: Just spotted that Gillingham (included in Medway) is in with a shout as well. Oh dear. This is the first year towns in areas have been able to combine for the bid. Disappointing that the cultural hub of Worthing...

    [Albion] The Burnley matchday experience v likely AMEX matchday experience for Watford

    Burnley Took forever to get there. They really need to move it closer. Was able to park for free within 10 minutes walk of stadium. No covid checks needed or required. No facemasks worn. Through turnstile in a matter of seconds. No body search. Bought drink and bottle lid was allowed to be kept...

    [Albion] On Saturday will we be allowed to use the toliets and where will they be located?

    There are clearly a lot of people going on Saturday who haven't been out in a while (or possibly ever?!!!) so just thought I'd try and cover all bases. :whistle:

    [Albion] Rationale for starting line up and formation

    Any ideas? When I saw the team I thought we were going with 3 centre halves, March at left wing back and Alzate right wing back. To the start with a flat back four with Gross at left back and Webster at right back was flippin crazy! So let’s assume Potter is a genius and we all know nothing...

    [Misc] Schedule or Schedule

    Just been listening to Andrew Straus on five live talking and he repeatedly said schedule as Skedule, which made me realise I say schedule as in shedule. Which is right, or does it depend what context you are saying it?

    [Film] Flash Gordon and Rocky given tighter age ratings by BBFC - any others?

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-57733015 Gordon's Alive! Both films now rated 12A is "as a result of changing standards in society," the BBFC said. They should be making Chitty Chitty Bang Bang a 15 just for that child catcher bloke. Scary as hell. Certainly scarier than Flash...
