    [Football] league matches in the usa?

    I’ve got into watching a lot more non league football in the last couple of years. It’s better in so many ways. Standard of football is so much better than it was 10/15 years ago, it’s cheaper, friendlier and you’re able to watch the game with a beer.

    [Football] league matches in the usa?

    It’s the future, unfortunately. I suspect the American tour last year was all part of the plan to get to that point. If so, some clubs will already be in on it, others like ourselves won’t be, just like with project big picture. Our football teams aren’t clubs any more, they are brands solely...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi wanted to join the best — then they overlooked him

    People need to give Roberto a break. He is an ambitious and relatively young manager, who is still learning his way at the top level. He wouldn’t be at Brighton if that wasn’t the case. He’s made mistakes this season, particularly in some of the things he’s said in public, but he’s passionate...

    [Albion] Fans Forum

    I dont like it myself, but it is a reality and part of the trade offs that come with success. I’ve seen some refer to this type of thing as an unconscious “loophole”, I think it is better to see it as a conscious privilege that is being given with that status of ticket.

    [Albion] Fans Forum

    1901ers pay a lot of money for their tickets and they get certain privileges with it that the rest of us don’t. That’s modern football unfortunately. This type of thing is only going to increase as long as the Albion remain in the Premier League.

    [Albion] Rushworth named Swansea player of the year

    … both by the fans and the players. Simple question: will he be Brighton’s number 1 next season?

    [Albion] Albion Women

    Exactly, the money is coming from Tony Bloom. The latest club accounts show negative reserves of £27.7m, with a debt owed to TB of £373m… sorry for reiterating this but both figure are important. The men’s team are where they are because of his investment. Full Stop. If he wants to put more...

    [Misc] HR Nightmare

    I had a no dissimilar situation a few years ago with a staff member. My advice/ what I was given at the time: Makes sure you give them an opportunity to say their piece and recognise genuine issues that they have. I’d open discussions by hearing them out, it can make them feel heard but also...

    [Albion] If we'd have lost at Hereford...

    Love the question and many others like it. As has been said, we will never know, but there’s now harm in speculating! The way I see it is there are quite a few ‘what ifs’ after that moment too from throughout the Dick Knight years- What if it had taken longer to get approval to play at...

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2023/24 Edition

    I seem to remember the year after (2008/9) they played at Lewes on NYD in the national league and Ashley Barnes played and scored for Boro.

    [Albion] missing thread?

    I don’t know, but from experience it’s probably something to do with the tax return that is delaying finalising the accounts. - this is usually left to the end and with the bank holiday suspect a fair few have been caught out this year. Especially here, if as some have suggested, the profits...

    The accounts aren’t available on companies house yet, I checked… 🤓 So maybe they are just waiting for them to be filed to release the press statement?

    [Albion] Jeremy Sarmiento

    he just got a mention on BBC News at Ten for his winning goal tonight. Surely a shout out from Clive Myrie is good enough reason to give the lad a chance this summer!

    [Football] Football on Easter Monday

    Not been the same player since that spell at Celtic. Such a shame, we could use that bit of steel at the back that he added at his best.

    [Football] Football on Easter Monday

    One of the things I really miss about being in the Football League is playing on Easter Monday. Always a good day out, with some great games down the years. The Premier League are missing a trick!

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi

    Fell for this hook, line and sinker. Went straight onto the BBC Sport app and quickly realised this was an April fools 😂👍

    [Albion] RDZ pre-Liverpool press conference

    RDZ is what he is, like it or lump it. He has always spoken about honesty being important with his relationship with the club and the fans. He’s said here simply what is going on, not in a vindictive way or a critical way, actually sounds very respectful to me. But quite simply, if RDZ does...
