My dad attended his first Albion match in 1926 and was taken by his older brother who was already a fan and presumably supported them since before then. In a lightbulb moment, it occurred to me that 1926 is only 25 years after the club was formed. So was their father, my grandfather, a fan from...
Started watching half way through and found it so interesting, I've downloaded to watch from the start. Interesting from a football point of view, but particularly as a reminder of more innocent times when I cheered Celtic to do well in Europe and Manchester Utd too. It was ok to be a Brighton...
Ok, I admit it. I struggle from time to time with phone tech. I probably should have headed up with Omsung Phine!. But despite a lot of Googling, the pages seem geared to a level of understanding I don't have. My problem is two occurrences at the same time.
Received a message saying 'End of...
Just as we enter the business end of the season, they cover a SkyBet survey with the headline 'Albion fans blame Graham Potter'. A survey open to all fans, not just Brighton, but don't let that get in the way of a headline Adam Stenning. It seems that apart from Brian Owen, they have a bit of an...
Suspect this thread will disappear quickly as it's only relevant to anyone who has or knows the Cocktail X10, but thought it worth a try. It's a hi-fi component for CD storage and streaming. I have been enjoying loading CDs on this hi-fi hard drive unit during lockdown and it has worked fine...
Particularly after a good result, Nick's reviews of the post match media reports on the Albion App and website is my highlight and something I really look forward to. If you haven't taken a look before, the Spurs review is a great place to start.
It's lockdown, so what better way to spend your time this weekend, outside of Albion, than watching a sport you probably never knew existed and one of the much anticipated highlights of my armchair sport viewing. It's table tennis, with show business pzazz. Different rules, different scoring...
An unusual topic for this hallowed forum and it may disappear as soon as it starts. I have never listened so intently and enjoyed the work of a poet as much as this inspirational and inspired choice by Joe Biden as Inaugural Poet Laureate. I include Attilla and Spike Milligan in this list, so...
There's a great thread running about bad service, but what about the good guys?
I'm currently on the phone renegotiating my Broadband with Sky to a fibre package. She's done a great job.
Following on from the Solly March edition of this question, I have been moved to add my own version.
This isn't about bedwetting. I just don't see what he brings to the team.
His passing is erratic.
Frankly he is no better than Duffy bringing the ball out.
He rarely wins a decisive header from...
Can't help thinking if a Tory MP had called a Labour MP scum in the House of Commons, there would have been a thread much sooner on NSC.
Dons helmet and runs for cover.
Is there a kind soul out there who could email me a black and white pdf of the Albion Seagull? Not the full badge, just the seagull. It's not for commercial purposes, just want to add one to a slate house sign for our home. If anyone can help, perhaps they could pm me for my email address. Hope...
Fraser has decided not to extend his contract after June 30th making him a free agent for the remaining seven games. Doesn't wish to risk injury prior to a move to a bigger club. Not sure what Eddie Howe does with the other two games for which he is contracted - don't imagine Fraser would put in...
Could anything be more obscene than Newcastle Utd offering £19m a year for Poch for next season? In the current climate? The Premier League is already accused of not being in the real world, but this makes me sick to the stomach.
Look what we could have had for next season, whenever that may be:

Let's be honest, that wouldn't need much changing for a Brighton shirt.
I've been listening to some John Prine tonight and desperately hoping he pulls through. I have enjoyed his music for many years and I'm not giving the virus the satisfaction of having him on his thread.
Here's a cheery ditty:
and a special song. I hope it isn't his Summers End:
Fight on John
