    [Albion] Steven Alzate departs

    He'll end up playing in the Premier League within the next 5 years. I suspect his career trajectory will be Gyokeres-ish - without hitting that sort of height. A permanent move will do him good, he was never going to fully develop here but someone is going to get an absolute bargain when they...

    [Albion] Deniz Undav - season long loan to Stuttgart confirmed

    I've seen all the goals he scored and saw a couple of games live on Sky Sports (either with Palace playing or no competition for what to watch). Stuttgart were very good in spells this season and he had a big impact, but it felt like a team operating absolutely at the peak of their ability. I...

    [Albion] Deniz Undav - season long loan to Stuttgart confirmed

    If we can milk Stuttgart, or anyone else, for £20m we'll re-confirm our status as geniuses in the transfer market. He's had the season of his life and won't notch 10 league goals in a top tier league again.

    [Help] Shopping via TV in the UK?

    TV shopping is still very popular among a certain demographic. I used to do a lot of work with a company which really focused on products which would suit a TV shopping audience and one of the Dragons on Dragons Den, Sara Davies, is still very well connected in that world. She will often assess...

    [Albion] Training the forward group separately

    Ipswich's striker coach in the last couple of seasons has been Lee Grant, of goalkeeping fame. League goals scored in 22/23 - 101, League goals scored in 23/24 - 92. 193 goals in two seasons having been coached by a goalkeeper with insights into what goalkeepers find hardest to prevent.

    [Albion] U-21s Retained List

    Peupion was comfortably the worst player to wear the stripes last season, but I didn't think Baker-Boat was much better. Stunned both have been retained.

    [Albion] If Graham Potter is re-appointed...

    No. Definitely no. 100%, absolutely and completely not. He can shove his project wherever he would like to shove it. Let him bore some other fanbase.

    [Albion] If Graham Potter is re-appointed...

    We absolutely disagree on that. I think he was a huge net negative on players like Solly March, shunting him to wing back. I do not believe he played much of a role in the development of Caicedo or Alexis Mac Allister, other than playing them. I think any manager in world football would have...

    [Albion] If Graham Potter is re-appointed...

    I think he's uniquely blessed to have been at the club when the recruitment process was firing on all cylinders. He was given some of the finest tools available and he did the absolute minimum with them. The absolute bare minimum and actually was a net negative in my opinion. He was stifling the...

    [Albion] How many England starting XI spots are up for grabs?

    Pickford Walker Stones Dunk/Branthwaite Trippier Rice Bellingham Foden Palmer Gordon Kane I think that will be the starting 11. For the bigger games I think Rice and Bellingham will play either side of Mainoo for better midfield strength. Gordon I think will be a mainstay of the starting team...

    [Albion] If Graham Potter is re-appointed...

    Bas Savage waved goodbye after that game which was very sad! But Wilkins saw out that season for another 5 months - how sour can it have been?!

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Just proving that he really is everyone's enemy, including his own. The damage he's done to the world should not be understated.

    [Albion] Carl Rushworth

    There really is no justification at all for how often Steele played last season.

    [Albion] Carl Rushworth

    Exactly, all the enjoyment of being a professional footballer without the hassle or need to actually play and potentially make a plonker of yourself. I'm sure he's enjoying himself but if he's not, he can leave and see about finding a club he might get to play at. The grass isn't always greener...

    [Albion] Carl Rushworth

    That was absolute banter on our behalf. The joke was fully on Arsenal. We should send them Steele to keep the joke going and integrate Rushworth into the first team this season with Verbruggen.

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    This is arguably the hardest period to appoint a manager in recent history. So many top jobs are available. Once the positions start getting filled it will become easier to pick from the pool of remaining options but I get the feeling the club have been ambitious in who they've gone after and...

    [Politics] Lloyd Russell-Moyle

    I don't think the party are doing anything, the party is bigger than the individuals who have engineered this situation.
