    Parking by Lewes Station

    I wonder if anyone can kindly shed any light on this, or report their own experience. Last night I parked in Lewes as parking is free after 6pm. We used a road very close to the station. The usual sign saying 9 to 5 was on display, and underneath was a yellow sign talking of "parking Suspension...

    Ring of Fire

    As an oldie in East Stand Upper, I am not sure how the playing of Ring of Fire has come about. I am not in any way moaning, as it is very catchy, and clearly the fans have taken to it, which can only help the atmosphere. Is it common at other grounds, and if not, might it become so popular with...

    Never been so wealthy, widely watched, and so unpopular - true of football today?

    I saw this comment recently and wondered what we think of it. On the face of it, it seems contradictory, yet, perversely perhaps there is an element of real truth to this. There is much cynicism regarding football nowadays, much of it surrounding the cash sloshing about, and yet it is widely...

    insults -voluntary code to stop them?

    I hope you will allow an oldie a moment's self-indulgence! I have just dodged the dreadful showers in Alexandra Park, Hastings and spoken to some super people, who were friendly and affable. I could not help but contrast that with some of the NSC respondent's contributions these last couple of...

    Albion losing one million a month?

    I noticed this para on the club site in the middle of Paul Barber's powerful defence of the prices at the Amex. Did he really mean the Albion, do you think, or was he just banding this figure about using any business. If this is true, and I don't know much about financial matters, I would have...

    some thoughts on the season so far

    If you look at the table, then it is definitely not encouraging, as 2 wins from 11 matches is hardly good enough. As with the previous seasons, we do not seem to be able to score goals, Ulloa excepted, and the crowds are starting to diminish, albeit not drastically -yet! The fact that LD is our...

    Some thoughts on last night's match

    It was very unfortunate with DS's flap at the long ball, and the buoyant atmosphere dropped after that for the rest of the first half, though, as with the save at Forest, his reflex save last night was very good. But it is nevertheless the third time he has apologised for errors -very...

    Some thoughts on the Charlton match

    Like most of us, I was much happier than against Sheff Wed - there was entertainment and clear signs of progress. Holla impressed with his slide tackling determination to break up the opposing attacks, not that there were that many, Colunga looked skilful as did Tex, though his attempted...

    Please explain FFP in very simple terms

    Good Evening to you, fellow Albion nuts, I wonder if someone would be so good as to advise me, in words of less than two syllables, exactly what is meant by FFP. I/we hear it all the time, but, not being terribly clued up with regard to finance, I am really not sure what is involved. Is there a...

    Advice wanted, please, as to the payments for progressing in the F. A. Cup

    I saw recently that £67.500 would be coming the club's way for progressing to the fourth round. Say, the reward for getting to the 5th round, for the sake of argument is £100.000, would that mean in practice that the club would get a further £32,500, or is the new figure added to give the club...

    Kemy has got himself fit

    I have just read in the Argus that Kemy has worked hard in recent weeks to lose weight and generally become fitter for action. Whilst this is obviously praiseworthy, and I genuinely hope that he can help the team and at the same time have personal fulfilment, I was somewhat surprised and a...

    Tuesday night - should win but do you have a nagging feeling . . . .

    I, presumably like most Albion fans, am expecting the lads to win and win comfortably, but I do have that nagging feeling . . . Barnsley have been very poor and their away record suggests that they will offer little. They are also managerless, and this too is disruptive for them, though might...

    Level of support in outlying areas of Sussex in terms of travelling to the Amex

    I live in Hastings and am constantly surprised at how many people here travel to the Albion, even if not on a regular basis. I know there is a thriving A21 club based in this area of East Sussex, but in addition to this, the Albion have many new fans here, probably due to the stadium experience...
