My mini Pool Valley sees the Southdown Leyland from Worthing arrive today. All the way from 1966. Backing into Bay 8. I've always loved buses and trains and turned collecting into a hobby. Although I don't think I could get a whole one in here. NSCers, show off your hobby collections here...

With the pre-season fixtures in process it's time to start all over again. It never ends. For the Isthmian League, the fixtures are generally released in July. I've been searching for a date but cannot find one at the moment. I will take OPs privilege to publish the Hawks season ticket prices...

No, not including Europe.... I remember a trip to Blackburn where I must have caught the famous 06.19 out of Brighton. Went to a beer festival in Darwin that had no cider (they always had a cider table and I don't drink beer). Albion lost 1-0 on a drab November day. Awful match. Trains were...

As I've mentioned before, I've only invaded a pitch on one occasion. Okay, two. Actually it was three, errr. All of it was accidental... But on none of those occasions when I found myself on pitch did I goad players or even go up to them or the opposition fans. My concerns when I see this...

I started traveling away when we had good transport links in the mid-late 80s. I was wondering what the traveling experience was like before then. I think an example would be how there was no M25 to speak of so coaches may have had to come through London. I wonder if folks have stories to tell...

Where are they off to ?

Williams 12-17 Zhao Zhao one away, but Williams has won four in a row. Twas this day 45 years ago I watched my first final. A little quiz question: The match that evening was interrupted by a news flash. What was that about ?

Are you worried about business fraud ? Do you want to know how to keep those points off your licence ? Do you feel your bottom is getting the best possible glow up ? Do you need to debate and shape world politics ? Or is European football your thing ? Come to NSC, your one stop shop. There...

I've only just noticed that at the top of the forum. What a splendid read. Thanks to those who write there :clap: I'll add to Hiney's programmes for essential Albion consumption.

Not long now folks. I hope everyone is in training. Well, maybe not me as I just turn up, walk around the boundary and do a little scoring. Maybe nick some tea if there's any going. I'll start this year off with a nice picture of a watching Darwin, our former mascot who sadly passed in the...

A Chinese fast food burger outlet has recently opened up in Sussex, specialising in new types of indigenous take away meals. The best seller is the quarter panda.

I'm fascinated by all sorts of football stats. Today I found another interesting one. Ignoring their relegation season of 2017/18, Stoke City have remained within a six place band of the league they have been in every season since 2008. Premier League (9th-14th) 9 seasons Championship...

Great and good of NSC. Neighbour reports to me a leak through the ceiling downstairs. Says they have a plumber coming tomorrow. I go into my bathroom and notice gurgling hot water coming through the plug hole. I then go into the kitchen and see the hot water tank is dripping near the pressure...

An Albion fan goes to Selhurst Park for the match and gets very drunk. Somehow he ends up in the Palace end. He loses all self awareness, and celebrates when Albion score. The two big Palace fans either side of him start grunting and grimacing and he fears for his safety. Finally, one of them...

Two werewolves buy tickets for a home match at the AMEX Turning up half an hour before kick off, one turns to the other and says 'There doesn't seem to be many people around at the moment.'

My dear friend and work colleague has told me he has just done a 'sample' for his bowel cancer testing kit. He asked if he should send it first class or second class. I told him to send it turd class.

Today is Wednesday. I have not questioned that. Until it isn't, of course. Which it isn't. It appears to be Thursday. I now have to do some work this evening that is always done earlier in the day in preparation for my team tomorrow. All this has come about because I found myself off my...

We've got you used to seeing Albion in the Premier League, and others will have done too. But I wonder how outside supporters of other clubs, of many years standing, see Albion's name in the context of their history of the following the game. A team who played in front of relatively small...

So... I go to get me glasses to put on and walk up the shop. I can't find them. They are normally in one of three places. Not so today. I'm pretty organised and hunting them down never takes long. Nothing, nil. They have vanished. Most frustrating as I need them to drive, although other road...

It seems to have become increasingly noticeable in some threads that have a lot of folk in considered discussion, whether in agreement or not, that the only response of some is to use the laughing emoji. On one thread alone, a member has used it 50 times whilst only making ten, barely...
