Absolutely it is. Including players playing for FA affiliated clubs the first time from Scottish and Welsh clubs. Applies to any player over the age of 11 as I recall. It wasn't so many years ago the Albion sailed close to the wind during Brian Horton's spell as manager when at Gillingham. A...

My finest memory is circa 1989 at The Goldstone where with Pompey winning 1-0 on 89 minutes, they had a player sent off then conceded two quick goals with Gary Nelson and Kevin Bremner scoring. To make it better, it was hammering down with rain and their fans were of course on the open east...

Oh dear. I hope he put his bins out on the correct day.....

I read of this tragic and sad news yesterday. Always a regular 'face' from the old days at the Goldstone. I'd often see him when I lived in the Worthing area years back and chat over all things Albion. Always cheerful and happy. The little man with a big heart. R.I.P. Nige.

Join the dots backwards and those speaking against anti smoking measures can usually be connected to tobacco industry lobbyists. Many of who are often resident in a Tufton Street office. Or in the case of Priti Patel who once stood up in parliament to condemn cigarette packaging measures, a...

Absolutely DO NOT waste money on a solicitor. The form process is really basic stuff and not daunting in any way. A few years back I was quoted circa £250 by a legal notary to do one and for him to fill it in on my behalf. A spot of research soon revealed that to be unnecessary. This subject...

Deluded, stupid or simply jealous? Who knows. What we do know is, when it comes to being well run whether recruitment or on and off the field matters, Brighton are in a different league to Everton. Look at their pre season signings for this current season. Ashley Young ffs. Such an Everton...

I wasn't aware the express service isn't 'technically' available for non residents. It's not an issue I'll be concerned about until 2027 but good to know and possibly act accordingly. Given the current administration, being officially advised to lie shouldn't really come as a shock. I used the...

My daughter who works overseas made an appointment for the express service. 'As far as I know' the admin is done prior and its a case of walking into the office and collecting it. The office was somewhere in Docklands near London City Airport I believe. Arrived off a flight from Singapore, over...

When he was a studio guest on a local football show here a few months back, the purchase clause was mentioned at the end of the interview. His body language and comments intimated he was happy and wanted to stay. Whether that would be Stuttgart, who knows. They've been something of a yo-yo club...

Couldn't have asked for more from them tonight. Gave it a serious go, played well, and can be proud. After a near lost cause from the first leg, they didn't fold with a whimper like many teams might have.

As he was convicted in March 2019 he will now be back in Italy. A life ban from games there? Don't bank on it.

Happened to my son several years back. A Virgin shitshow from Manchester to Euston ensured he missed the last train to Worthing. The Guard on the train got in touch with his bosses who organised a taxi to Worthing. Shared with a couple of others dropping off in Brighton as I recall.

Stuttgart have had a reputation for being somewhat potless in recent years, often yo-yoing between Bundesliga and Liga 2. This is their best season in years. Unless they sell Guirassy for a high fee (quite possible) it's doubtful they could afford Undav's now inflated fee. Unless of course they...

The Australian support in England looks like Merv Hughes has gone around the RSL's, emptied a few hundred pensioners out and given them matching green or yellow T Shirts. Or it's actually just a mural.....

It is an Italian thing. Any opposition fan regardless of 'fan creed' is game to these cowards. Where I live the hooligan ultras tend to keep their violent antics against opposition equivalent within that subculture. Often organised with military precision, they have little interest in attacking...

Romano is a grifting parasite and prime example of everything rotten with the modern game. The Leonardo Bonucci article further down that Danish post happened literally under my nose. Romano tweeted that Bonucci was unhappy at being left on the bench for Union Berlin against Napoli in their CL...

The fee for an emergency passport is pricey too. My daughter had to fork out circa 120 euro in Paris eight years ago. Reasonable to assume the Government have hiked the price since.

Both are cheeks of the same arse. Although far more likely to be Roma given their fixture is today. Both teams fans have form for being on the prowl the night before a game. All logistically organised with spotters about the city. They are horrible cowards but they are also very aware of where...

The steward on the VIPs car park entrance at Pride Park years back was easily 'purchased' when asking where we could park. After the standard "can't park ere mate" a fiver into his greasy palms sealed the deal. :cool:
