    [Football] On Hodgson and Olise

    Olise now out for a minimum of two more months with his injury. Which is a shame :D The wailing from Palace fans at this has been quite spectacular. We were literally talking at half time in the game about whether it would be worth Hodgson bringing him on for a game that could easily have been...

    [Albion] Bit petty of the Albion...

    ...to stop the Always Ultras buying any tickets for today's game, I thought. They've always previously been such an inspirational presence with their singing and their flags and their little fireworks, so it seems a bit mean of the club that they refused to let them into the ground today. Must...

    [Football] Kalvin Phillips

    In shock news, it appears Kalvin has decided that the lure of a few months playing defensive football under Roy in front of the Always Ultras just wasn't tempting enough, and is signing for West Ham on loan with an option to buy. Aside from chuckling that Palace ever dreamed they might be in...

    [Albion] Train issues for tonight

    Delays between Gatwick & Purley until at least 1600 due to a person being hit by a train. 40mph speed restrictions on all trains between Brighton & Three Bridges until 2100 (estimated) due to high winds & flooding. Restrictions also in place on south coast trains.

    [Albion] Surely we must have some decent free kick takers in this squad?

    Once again, I'm blown away by the fact that, upon being awarded a free kick in a decent attacking position, the players on the pitch (and presumably the coaching staff) are happy to stand back and watch while Lewis Dunk lines it up. Happened on Thursday, happened again today, and has happened on...

    [Albion] The Japanese imperial flag in the away end at OT

    Bit of a questionable move by whoever was waving it. Could cause a great deal of offence, and indeed has already been picked up on by some horrified Korean Twitter followers, amongst others (it's viewed in similar terms to a swastika in South Korea, and by many Chinese people). Probably more...

    [Albion] Should Dunk's song be updated?

    Withdean to Wembley...lovely, but maybe he deserves a better reflection of just what an incredible journey he's taken us on? "From Athens to Amsterdam, everywhere he goes..."? Or change the second line to From Athens To Amsterdam, instead of "blocking shots" etc Yay? Nay?

    [Albion] This is insane

    ...we are currently 16 (sixteen) points ahead of CPFC 2010 Ltd in the Premier League, with eleven games still to play. And we've barely even noticed that gap, because our ambitions are so much higher than that these days. Doesn't that speak (joyous, beautiful, wondrous) volumes?

    [Football] Chelsea fire their head groundsman & assistant

    I wonder what Boehly's plans are for replacing them? :unsure::rolleyes: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11881157/Chelsea-company-head-groundsman-30-year-tenure-club.html

    [Albion] Fixtures April/ May

    So, we still need to rearrange games against Man United, Man City and Newcastle. We currently have seven games in April, so not a lot of room for movement, but the opponents (except Newcastle) have even few opportunities. Sadly :D, Manchester United currently have to play nine games in April...

    [Football] Super Pat & his amazing reverse Midas touch

    I'm fascinated (when I say fascinated, I of course mean amused) to see how Vieira has transformed that Palace squad from one which looked quite decent for the first half of last season, to where they are now. After Uncle Roy retired, they knew they had to have a massive rebuild, so got rid of a...

    [Football] Minute's applause at all Premier League games next weekend in support of Virgil Van Dijk?

    Following on from SkySports' sombre and touching day of tributes to the great man, it's to be hoped that all Premier League games this coming weekend will be preceded by a minutes applause for Virgil, who faces a possible five to eight months out with a knee injury. The Liverpool Echo have just...

    [Football] Which club would be your billionaire's football project?

    So, say you've got billions to spend and fancy having some fun with a football club. You can pick any club in the country to buy and throw money at, with the aim of getting them to the big time and upsetting the football landscape (a Man City or an Abramovich, if you will). Money is no object...

    [Football] Proposed salary cap for Leagues One & Two

    The Football League are proposing the introduction of a salary cap for Leagues One & Two, of £2.5m and £1.25m respectively. Which self-appointed Big Club do you think have been the most vocal in opposing this so far? Why, it's our old chums from across the border to the west, who had a wage...

    [News] "Nude" protestors in the House of Commons

    Well the media are calling them "nude". A bunch of barely clothed climate activists have just interrupted Peter Kyle's speech, with rumours of buttocks being superglued to the security glass. Though most of them appear to have their pants on, so whilst it may be lacking in traditional...

    [News] Leaving Neverland- Michael Jackson documentary

    Channel 4, Wednesday evening. Features lengthy interviews with two men who claim they were abused as children by Michael Jackson. He's been accused previously of course, but both of these two previously swore in his criminal trial that he didn't touch them. Now older, and with families of their...

    [Albion] Season ticket renewal prices...?

    Season ticket prices for 2019/20 being announced this weekend. What do we think the damage will be? I can't see they can really hoof prices up too much, given that they cannot guarantee we'll be a PL team next season, but an increase of sorts seems inevitable, does it not?
