Just been called by my doctors to say that my appointment at the Spine Clinic is happening at the AMEX. The full venue name is the Brighton Diagnostics Centre. I did tell them that I wasn't available to play but was assured it was only an examination... Has anyone ever been here before ? I...

Seriously would not know what to do here if I won the toss. Lots of green on that wicket. Edit: 4th-8th January.... Thinking English time....

Christmas Day Sunday 25th December 19? BBC1 8.55am Star Over Bethlehem A programme of Christmas music. (Shown last night on BBC2) 9.55am Playboard with the Playboard Puppet Theatre and Christopher...

Well, a somewhat strange decision to bowl first on a pitch with little green on it. I know the last couple of day-night matches have gone to the second hit but that shouldn't be a consideration. Quite why Steve Smith is being targeted outside the off stump I don't know. Make him play and set...

Someone should get the answer early. But the subject quickly becomes an interesting topic of discussion that we rarely think about...

Having been warned about his unruly behaviour, Chris has now decided to explore the emotional side of his feelings. Today he blubs like a baby after the first goal is scored. Is our placated warrior losing it in a different way this time round ?

My first ever Albion league match. Four games into the season and Albion had not yet won (or even picked up a point). Perhaps my mind was drawing too many parallels but when the fixtures came out I thought today would be our fist win. No-one is under any illusion about how hard this season...

BBC report on Manchester City's win over Real Madrid http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40738003 'City have spent in excess of £200m this summer - England international Kyle Walker (£45m), Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva (£43m) and Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson Moraes (£35m) joining French...

Stoolball, anyone ?

Much talk of the event taking place on June 14th so let’s make it fun and find out who can guess the algorithm of the computer in FA Towers. The first task is to predict the first six matches of next season. Five points for any fixture that is correct in team, venue (Home or Away) and order of...

For those with a cup of tea and ten minutes to spare- a journey through Friday from a slightly wistful perspective. I remember writing my last Wolves diary which was the last match of Hyppia's tenure. How times change. https://brightonlines.wordpress.com/2017/04/16/are-we-there-yet/

Are the walls damp ? It may be next door's bed sheets drip with end of season angst. Does your house heat up as you hear an upstairs keyboard in frenzied pounding when a new BREXIT thread appears ? Can howls of derision be heard when away ticket allocations are released on the forum ? It may...

Bored with my day time job I’ve decided to make some money on the side. It was a speculative idea, but I bought a load of iced buns from Tesco at six for a pound and stood on the street corner. Anyway, this bloke with an Albion scarf came along and asked for two, one for now and one for later...

Good game for bored folk to play: I'll go first. Answer: Nine Won 5 Drawn 4 Lost 0 Since the last defeat in September 2014. What is the question ?

Restraint in the hand shake, but the small pout at the front of the mouth suggests he was about to stick his tongue out at Carlos there. He turns his face from temptation at the last moment. With the sustained three second clenching of the fists after the second goal I think someone needs to...

Watching this match it is incredible to see the quality on show. But just supposing you could pick any three of those players to join our squad for the remainder of the season, who would you choose and why ?

A very moving video from Arsenal's Brazilian defender Gabriel. A message to us all really. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38181745

Duffy and Dunk must have broken some sort of record today. Normally when a cross goes in so our hearts enter our mouths. Today you could just sit back and think 'Nah, don't bother...'
