    The band in the bandstand thing

    For the first time in ages I got there early on Monday so hung around outside for a while. I don't know whether it was just that choice of the band but it was a bit shabby and ignored. Is this always the case now? Lots of people milling around but the band was kind of pointless and irrelevant...

    The AMEX pitch

    Not seen it discussed anywhere else but who else was gobsmacked by the quality of the turf! It was like being on astrotruf. I doubt it hardly suffered any damage at all. When I look back to similar occasions on the pitch at the Goldstone and Withdean the pitch was never as good as that. Well...

    Sweet Caroline

    Be honest, who else has downloaded this today? ps) I find playing it very loudly helps take you back to about now yesterday very successfully :) So good, so good, so good.

    The first club to come in for Hughton....

    With his stock rising higher than ever before who will be the first club to try and poach our Chris? I'll plump for West Ham and I expect Tony and him to tell them where to go.

    A small side issue - the ref blowing his whistle in the worst place

    I thought it was traditional for refs to wait for a goal kick in these situations so he can get as close to the tunnel as possible and so can many of the players, but he did it in the far corner! Was he not expecting a pitch invasion? Or did he just not care. And did anyone nick his whistle...

    Anyone actually going to do any work today - really should be a Sussex holiday!

    At work, hungover but deliriously happy! What a day and what a night. Brighton was mental last night. Celebrating with the players on the trains and down Queens Street will live with me forever. Superb, just superb. And sharing with family and friends was amazing. I love this club, I love...

    This nonsense about being effectively promoted tomorrow because of our superior GD

    It may be the latent accountant in me but it really hacks me off. If we are 15 points ahead with Huddersfield with 5 games to go, the assumption is that even if we lose 4 and they win 5 they won't overtake us on goal difference. But they could and therefore it is not promotion, effectively or...

    Today's championship games - Newcastle, Huddersfield and Reading watching

    A tricky trip for Newcastle at MASSIVE but they are generally better away from home and MASSIVE are not so massive these days. I suspect Huddersfield will have too much for Forest as well. But Reading may slip up at Norwich? I've done the normal double bet on Newcastle/Huddersfield which...

    Smoke Bomb

    Having gone through the QPR ring of steel double search and check that was impressive. But what else could be easily smuggled in? Is there actually any point in the searches they do at football because it seems to me they only pick up your keys and phone!

    The Dunk "Handball"

    Thought at the match that it was a clear handball but having just watched the game this morning and seen Holloway moaning on I'm surprised he didn't see the clear push on Stephens immediately before it. The bloke who heads it was all over him. If video replays came in would they look at that or...

    Wolves tickets - 500 left

    Deserves it's own thread. 500 tickets left out of the allocation of 2,700. Should be able to sell this out now. It's good Friday, get on up to Wolves.

    Southampton FC - increased turnover, lower profit

    A multimillion-pound increase in turnover and more than £29m in transfer income has helped Southampton FC to report "another year of positive financial performance". The latest accounts of St Mary's Football Group Ltd, which incorporates Southampton FC, have revealed revenues of £124.3m for the...

    Streamers for the run in

    Time to up the anti as we hit the run in. These are a decent buy and should look pretty good if we buy enough: http://amzn.to/2mXZv9Y http://amzn.to/2nMsp0S

    Beauty and the Beast

    Now I'm guessing much of NSC may view this film as a bit of a girls film, BUT despite being a grumpy middle aged old man..... I have to say it is truly bloody amazing. Saw it at the Imax on Sunday and thought it was incredible. Seeing it in 2D later and will be interested to see if the film...

    How do you say the word "forehead"

    Is it Fore Head or is Forrid? Or something else.

    That Stockdale moment

    Was he getting bored or something? It was like "oh go on have another go, you still won't beat me!" What was he thinking? Irrelevant in the end but can't have been good for any of our hearts, or his. That said he was still one of our best players on the night.

    Ant and Dec

    Anyone bump into the cheery little fellas? Must confess I like them and would have gladly taken the selfie opportunity had it arisen. That said half time would have been a more cheery one than full time. With Barber and Bloom there with them I bet they all felt very comfortable looking each...

    How would you feel if Tony Bloom sold the club to the Chinese?

    With the news that Southampton are now in talks to sell to a Chinese Bank which would mean they would become the 6th Chinese owned club in the country (Manchester City, West Bromwich Albion, Aston Villa, Birmingham City and Wolverhampton Wanderers) we have to face there is a realistic (if...
