Obviously I want the Stains to win. Apart from anything else, it'd properly piss off Pompey, who'd still be the South Coast's crappiest club.

This. And for that reason, he was always a dead man walking if he hadn't got promoted.

Indeed. I remember the FAC 6th round cup game at home to Southampton. 25,000 in the ground - the biggest since the Norwich FAC 6th round game in 1983 and a huge gate by the standards of the day - and you could hear a pin drop for most of it (not helped by the fact we conceded early and got...

Agreed. We need to start singing "Albion" to "here we go" like the good old days*. Apart from that, people get very misty eyed about atmosphere and always have done. I went to many a match at the Goldstone where the atmosphere was very, very ordinary. Of course the atmosphere has gone flat...

You're not wrong, although in the past the wicket has been somewhat ill-prepared. Last weekend it was an absolute road apparently so it's obviously OK at the moment, but I remember watching my son play there a decade ago and it was like bowling on a trampoline. The only Top Deck cricket advert...

It certainly is. Beautiful view too, and five mins from my door. Fast turning back into one of my happy places (I was a member a decade ago and have just returned this season). However I'll be playing at our second ground for this fixture, The Ring in Earlswood.

Merstham CC 4s v Trinity Mid-Whitgiftian CC for me tomorrow (weather permitting) in a friendly. We've already beaten them in our Division 6 East Surrey league fixture a couple of weeks ago. Looking forward to it.

Plus of course the smug boring gobshite will not be seen on here for six months if Palace don't actually finish above us.

If that happens I guess it goes head to head then? :cool:

Exactly this. I don't begrudge away fans getting into home areas as long as the appropriate level of respect is given. No wearing colours and no acting like a complete cnt if you score. Celebrate briefly but don't be obnoxious. I remember leaping up and punching the air to celebrate a Kerry...

I doubt Man Utd will be that fired up, tbh. They are 8th and while 7th will probably be a Conference place, I doubt a club of that size will be all that interested. And on paper, Newcastle have an easier game than they do so they probably think it has gone anyway. Plus obviously they'll be...

I'd say six years comfortably comes under the "present day" banner. Just face it, you're wrong.

Like this you mean? (only 6 years ago) Have they had 4 different winners in 4 seasons at all in your lifetime?

Serie A recent champions: Juve 10, Inter 7 out of a total of 20. 🤡

Yes and no. I mean I know I'd be torn on the matter. Sometimes I think this is where fan culture loses all sense of balance and decency. Do we really define ourselves as Brighton fans or are we just Palace haters?

Alternatively maybe you need to get some perspective. For two seasons you haven't been close to being in our league; and this season that is with us having ten games in Europe to contend with, going 2 rounds further in the FAC and starting our League Cup campaign the day after you'd been...

Really quite annoyed he's still here to be honest. An absolute waste of wages.

It's actually a TRAM station for the new service running on Lewes Road from central Brighton, up past The Level, through the 'scoomb right up to God's own stadium. :thumbsup:

Enjoyed watching Lallana. He is a good professional and he's leaving for the right reasons. Thanks for some.good performances and good luck going forward, AL.

At least @hans kraay fan club got a game. I was all set, checked my phone 5 mins before setting off, only to find the oppo (Old Dorkingians) had cancelled 15 minutes before we were due to meet. Poor show IMO. Day spent gardening instead. Shite.
