    [Misc] Kevin Sinfield & MND

    Kevin Sinfield. This man is a Saint. I've just watched the news about his latest quest to do 7 marathons in 7 citys in 7 days and, as usual, it brought tears to my eyes. The amount of work that he does for MND is astonishing. I know he doesn't do it for personal recognition but a knighthood...

    [Football] Pickford Timewaster

    Pickford was up to his usual tricks yesterday, timewasting from the start. He is well known for his antics, so the Brighton fans at the match were calling out loud the number of seconds Pickford held on to the ball. I'm sure the referee could hear but, as usual he was allowed to get away with...

    [Albion] Fati Goal. Offside?

    Perhaps someone who understands the offside law could explain why Fati's goal was subjected to an offside review. There was a Villa player off the pitch beyond the goal line. Surely he would count as a defender wouldn't he.

    [Albion] Is Veltman Injured?

    I know Milner has had loads of European experience but that doesn't make him a great footballer today - it makes him an old man. We all know Lamptey's shortcomings so why is Veltman third choice for this match?

    [Cricket] T20 Finals Day

    Today is T20 finals day. No Sussex though. I've been to two finals days involving Sussex; the first was a great day as we went through to the final and won. The second was a miserable affair because we were involved in the first semi-final and lost. Our coachload sat through the first few overs...

    [News] Nina Miskow

    The awful Nina Miskow was on Jeremy Vine show this morning and was commenting on the interruption of George Osborne's wedding by a Just Stop Oil protester. Nina said it was wrong to interrupt a wedding but, because it was the former Tory chancellor, she said she was glad it had happened. In my...

    [Football] Defending with arms behind your back.

    It's impossible to defend properly while standing with your arms behind your back. Today Veltman let Kane's shot hit him and deflect into our net for the winning goal. Veltman was far enough away from Kane to react and get a better touch. It's a consequence of VAR but it's wrong to expect...

    [Politics] Sue Gray is Red

    So the impartial civil servant, Sue Gray, who contucted the Partygate enquiry, is the new chief of staff of the Labour Party. Stinks. Boris was stitched up.

    [Drinking] Prime Drinks

    Went into my local paper shop and saw some canned drinks for sale at £10 a pop. Evidently it's some sort of socal media inspired craze. Asda and Aldi are selling them for £2 something but a store in Wakefield is charging £100 for one can. What's going on. Anybody had one?

    [Albion] We're Top For Conceding Penalties

    BHA have conceded more penalties than any other Premier League team so far this season. Most of them have been quite harsh but tonight's against Everton was a bit of a calamity. Why are we conceding so many penalties, is it poor refereeing?

    [Football] Saturday May 11th 1985 Bradford

    Today is the 34th anniversary of one of the most horrific things ever seen at a football stadium - the Bradford City fire disaster where 30 people died in an horrific fire in the stand. The ironic thing is that the stand was due to be demolished the following week and rebuilt. You don't hear...

    [Humour] Limericks Are Fun

    Anyone remember limericks. Comedians used to use them in the days of variety and they were also a little risqué but fun. How about we do some limericks just for a laugh. Here's a rather tame Albion one to hopefully get us going. There's probably no disputin, That manager Christopher Hughton...

    [Other Sport] Israel Folau - Christian Martyr

    Was it brave or just foolhardy for Falau to express his Christian beliefs on-line. Should he have lost his career?

    [Albion] 15th APRIL 1981

    On 15th April 1981we were in deep trouble in the relegation zone at the foot of DIV 1 (The old premier for you youngsters). Four games to go and this is what happened:- Palace AWAY WON 3-0 Leicester HOME WON 2-1 Sunderland AWAY WON 2-1 Leeds HOME WON 2-0...

    [Other Sport] Motorbikes

    Any bikers out there. There's always a hundred or more in the car park for each match and its so easy getting in and out of the stadium. Ive got a 1972 Triumph Tiger 650 and a 2017 Triumph Bobber. Ill be coming in on the Bobber tomorrow.

    [Albion] Kayal

    Evidently Kayal was upset at being left out of the match day squad for the semi-final against Manchester City and I must say I understand his frustration. He featured in all the previous rounds up to this point and in my opinion was up there with our best performers in each match he played. I...

    [Albion] Montoylet

    It's a good job we didn't have one of those old fashioned leather football's that soaked up the water and had rock hard laces because poor old Montoya would have had trouble lifting it off the ground. He needs to get down to the training ground and practice crossing for an hour or two. He's been...
