    [Football] Unfair EFL play-offs

    I believe it was only in place for two seasons; in the first (1986-87), top-flight Charlton beat Leeds United but only after extra-time in a third match after the original two legs finished 1-1 on aggregate, and in the following season top-flight Chelsea lost to MIddlesbrough over two legs.

    [Albion] The 2025-26 Brighton & Hove Albion pre-season friendly thread

    Some news at last. However, it seems there will be extraordinarily few public friendlies this year. 1st Team: Training camp somewhere in Europe Saturday August 2 Kick-off: 3:00pm v Southampton (Venue: St Mary's Stadium) Saturday August 9 Kick-off: 5:00pm v VfL Wolfsburg (Venue: American...

    [Albion] Prof Douglas Chamberlain

    I see that Professor Douglas Chamberlain has recently passed away at the age of 94. Probably not a name well-known to many Albion fans, but as well as being regarded as the father of paramedic medicine he initiated a ground-breaking trial of automated defibrillators at the Goldstone Ground in...

    [Albion] To Avoid Hürzeler Bashing - The Staying Up and Europe Tracker - season 2024-25 Game 38 Update

    Exactly. Let those clamouring for changes start their own trackers, and see how popular they are (spoiler: they won't be).

    [Albion] The 2025-26 Brighton & Hove Albion pre-season friendly thread

    I think the last friendly against Lewes was in July 2015. Our U-18s have faced Burgess Hill Town in each of the last four summers.

    [Albion] Evann Guessand

    He probably knows nothing about him given that he went on record in March saying "I don’t particularly enjoy going to watch Nice because there are some good players but the level of football is not high enough for me to get excited".

    [Albion] How many managers have you see us play under?

    Don't you mean 29 Harry?

    [Football] Chris Hughton new Ghana manager

    Do we know that hasn't been offered to him? Maybe it has and he turned it down.

    [Albion] The 2025-26 Brighton & Hove Albion pre-season friendly thread

    Maybe Tony has crunched the numbers and has a new theory that pre-season friendlies aren't necessary to prepare for the season. :lol:

    [Albion] Hurzeler is statistically our best Premier League manager

    But it is also only right to point out that De Zerbi was extraordinarily lucky to have the services of all of Moises Caicedo, Alexis Mac Allister and Pascal Gross during that 2022-23 season (two genuinely world class midfielders and a third who must be one of the best value signings in Premier...

    [Albion] More Albion call-ups at youth level

    England lose 4-2. Simmonds remains on the bench. England need a decent victory over the Czech Republic in their final match on Monday and have to hope for a Belgium loss to Italy otherwise they are on the plane home.
