    [Albion] Is the problem goalscoring or not?

    I couldn't agree more. Its the 1-1 draws that bother me. Burnley, Palace and yesterday are perfect examples of 1-0 wins that never happened because of sloppy defending. Chelsea (at home) and West Ham are similar in the sense that, although the opposition scored the first goal, it was a...

    [Albion] Assuming Steven Alzate speaks Spanish...

    Hmm. How embarrassing. That's the thing about memories... I was even at the Reading game when his right-sided overlap was ended by that thug Kermorgant!

    [Albion] Assuming Steven Alzate speaks Spanish...

    ... and seeing as he is now playing right-back, when did we last take the field for a league game with a non-Spanish speaker in that position? From memory, since 2009 we've had only Iñigo Calderón, Gonzalo Jara Reyes(loan), Bruno Saltor, Martin Montoya and Steven Alzate. A decade? Surely not!

    [Albion] Knockaert joins Fulham on initial one-year loan

    ... or kill it and nutmeg the winger with the same cushioned touch, play a one-two with Stephens and hare off up the wing.

    Phil Lesh (am I really the first person to mention him?) Bernard Edwards Stanley Clarke Aston 'Family Man' Barrett (and him?) Simon Gallup Robbie Shakespeare But I don't play the instrument in question. My son does (and graduated from the Royal Northern College of Music on it) and he would say...

    [Albion] The Chicken Run......

    I recall standing in the rain next to said scaffolding in 1981 watching us draw 2-2 with Liverpool. My scouse friend John, having promised to be discrete, yelling "Come on you mighty Reds" over and over again, and clearly audible on MOTD that night. It was also a failed attempt to introduce my...

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk's passing

    Substitutions. For example, Stephens off, Murray on when we're winning. This speaks volumes for the positional and tactical flexibility in this team compared to last year.

    [Albion] How many times have you watched the Spurs game highlights?

    If it helps, I found that Mozilla Firefox has not been able to play any highlights since the Newcastle game, but MS Edge copes fine.

    [Albion] So who had a Spud next to them?

    Never more so than when there was a clear "We're the East Side, we're the east side..." response to the North in the second half. Happy days.

    [Humour] Smart arse jokes

    A Higgs boson particle walks into a church. The vicar says, "We don't allow your sort in here, because calling yourself the God particle is blasphemy". The particle replies "If you exclude me, how will you have mass?"

    The Jeremy Corbyn thread

    From memory, I think it was Lehman Brothers and Gordon Brown's policy of quantitative easing.

    [Albion] Tiki Tactics

    The clear implication here is that this system works against a team who do not look to get the ball wide. It'll be interesting to see how we line up against teams like Palace who play with two wingers. Really looking forward to watching this develop. Roll on Saturday!

    [Music] Music you still like that your parents liked, to your astonishment

    Dad was Chris Barber and Acker Bilk, but also Beatles, Stones and most sixties UK pop plus some reggae. Mum was Elvis, Everley Brothers, Byrds and generally quite American in her taste. Later Dad and I crossed over with Steelye Span, Fairport Convention, Ralph McTell and Bob Marley (his) and...

    Sorry and all that. As I recall, it stayed at number 2 thanks to the one and only Chesney Hawkes. Grr!
