5 Things About The Brighton Game
at 22:22 23 Feb 2025

1. Bree gets in the side yet again. How?

2. Gronbaek is being ridiculously under-used.

3. Brighton missed a load of sitters.

4. Bella-Kotchap looked really slow at times.

5. The Overdraft is a half-decent boozer. Prefer Steingarten and the Five Rivers though.

Would any new owner also be forced to buy Goztepe and Valenciennes?
at 17:37 23 Feb 2025

I think her stake is rather less than that.

Seem to recall it was diluted after some share transactions…..

Odd re Clough.

He once said: "If God had wanted us to play football in the clouds, he'd have put grass up there", which makes one wonder why he insisted on players being good headers of the ball.

But then Goztepe and Valenciennes would become even more worthless without the cash cow of monies from English football to prop them up.

Which surely means Sport Republic would add a significant premium over and above any sensible selling price for Saints alone.

Almost better for any buyer to buy all three, and then bin off the schmuck League clubs to buyers local to both of their areas.

Mmm, the social side is pretty much the only reason I still go.

There is little on the pitch or in the stands to get excited about.

The atmosphere at home games is utterly dire. Results obviously not helping there......

This is what is troubling me.

It may be rather tricky to get new owners.....

It was particularly daft yesterday TBF.

It was pissing it down.

And I was enjoying the Helles beer in the Overdraft.

Quite a few have already stopped.

But there seem to be people willing to take their place.

Odd.

The "defending" was utterly abject again yesterday.

How can a three CB combination concede that first goal?

The second was just as bad.

I still haven't seen the 3rd or 4th goals, and have no wish to.

At the risk of saying the unsayable....

They are all sound types, I'm sure.

But the novelty has well and truly worn off with their pre-match ditty.

TBH The moment I hear them, it makes me want to go back to the pub.

The woes of the club are wholly down to what we are seeing on the pitch, and it is not these chaps' fault in the slightest.

I however just feel that they set the scene for the abject misery that we are to witness following their contribution.

Probably on my own on this, I suspect.

A thumbs-up for the Overdraft pub yesterday.

Good to see a number of esteemed posters on this message board in there.

This isn’t just a criticism of Juric.

It was just as bad under Brent.

But we have had all week to prepare for today.

And yet the players look like they have never met each other before.

You look at Brighton, clever interplay all across the pitch; in a different League to us.

We get a few corners. Just hit and hope; no originality or surprise element at all.

It just makes me wonder WTF they actually do at Staplewood during the week.

I walked out at 0-2.

I looked around me.

Half of the people on their phones.

Most of the rest just standing around talking to their mates.

I just didn’t want to be there.

You ain’t going to get protests with this lot.

I actually fear for many of these if they go to Fratton next season.

It’s a bar that sells German beer.

Krombacher is a decent German lager.

Does that make it manufactured????

Personally I think it’s an absolute world away from the gulags.

1. Steingarten
2: Cricketers
3. Painted Wagon

Trying a different one on Saturday, so will see how that is….

I do like the Five Rivers a lot, though don’t think that could be classed as City Centre….

Brest has shown how a small club can be ultra successful…
at 06:36 20 Feb 2025

I see that Brest sadly lost 7-0 to PSG last night.

Maybe after all they were just all tits and ass.
