    NHS Volunteers

    Has anyone heard back on this yet? I and some of my family registered when it came out but none of us heard back yet and if you try and log in to the app it just says waiting confirmation or similar. I guess they are prioritising where it is most needed?

    [Other Sport] BBC to air Sporting Classics

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/52134253 The London 2012 Olympics and Euro '96 are just some of the memorable moments that viewers on the BBC can relive this summer after the coronavirus pandemic decimated the sporting calendar. The 2012 opening ceremony will air on BBC One in the spring, along...

    [News] Is there any other news in the world? If so post below.

    It seems to me that God, the illuminati, the lizard people, or whoever else runs the world organises the news so that whenever there is a big news story there isn’t a clash. E.g) once Brexit finished, up steps Covid 19 and we have heard nothing else at all since. So is it all organised or are...

    [Football] No Promotion or relegation below national league level just announced

    Harsh on those due to be promoted like Worthing FC, currently 7 points clear at the top of the Isthmian Premier League. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52052351

    National Park Ban for non local people?

    One of the emergency measures apparently being considered is whether to ban non locals from the National Parks, including South Downs. Not sure how this would work in practice given the vastness of it, but will it will be back to the war days of "papers please" for a quick postcode check?

    "I'm still in shock about Mcdonalds"

    Message received from Mrs Giraffe, and echoed by a few people I have spoken to today who have taken Mcdonalds as closing as the moment when this got real :) When was your "this got real" moment.

    [Albion] Mass cancelling of Sky Sports and BT Sports

    Just realised there is a very good chance there will be no or little sport to watch in the coming 3-6 months. I for one am going to cancel my subscription to both. I suspect I won't be alone.

    [Albion] What are you going to do without football and other sport?

    I'll be honest much of my life is built around the Albion. I go to every game home and away, most of my friends are Albion fans, and I spend much of my work time thinking and talking about football. So as it looks highly likely that we won't be seeing any football until at least the summer...

    [Albion] New Leicester away fixture date

    [Albion] Number of seasons in the Premier League - is our expectation simply unrealistic?

    I did an analysis of number of seasons each of the current premier league teams have spent in the premier league in the last 20 and 10 seasons. When you look that most of the teams in the league have had at least 2 or 3 more seasons of rolling in the TV money is any wonder we are struggling...

    [News] Clerkenwell Explosion 1867

    Whilst looking through a list of terror attacks (see German attack thread) I came across this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerkenwell_explosion Never heard of it. Remarkable to think this happened in the 19th Century, 104 years before the next Irish related attack.

    [Albion] Glenn Goal Tally

    What is he on now? League and Cup Total League Total I seem to recall he was into second place in all time goalscorers and closing in on top but probably won't get there? 10 or 11 short of all time league scorers?

    [Albion] Why are all the games kicking off at 7.30pm tomorrow night?

    Ball ache getting along the A27 at the best of times, an earlier kick off doesn’t help!

    [Albion] Keep Ring of Fire as the pre kick off music or not?

    To quote this thread, https://www.northstandchat.com/showthread.php?377700-Swansman-quot-vs-quot-Paul-Barber "Many supporters feel that "Ring of Fire" is perhaps not the best pre-match music". Barber commented: "we review our match day build-up and music choices before every season. It doesn’t...

    [Albion] 11 different premier league scorers this season

    Great stat tucked away in this Brian Owen article: https://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/18131165.albions-show-faith-transfer-window-opens/ Only Liverpool (16) and Leicester (12) have more scorers this season. So much for just being reliant on our strikers eh?!

    [Albion] Maupay drop ball

    What was that all about? Why was it a non contested drop ball? The ball went flat, surely that’s a proper drop ball so Maupay was right?
