    [Albion] Our Roberto.........

    still not sure why we are so worried about comparing RDZ to GP.. GP played some of the best football I have seen this club play. He developed a style and an ethos that made us one of the more attractive teams in the league, getting plaudits from far and wide. The beginning of this season was...

    [Albion] ** Everton v BHA ** - Premier League Score Predictor - Now in it's 12th SEASON !!

    Very hard to call and no result will surprise!! Hence 1-1!

    [Albion] Leandro Trossard SIGNS ON A FOUR-YEAR DEAL

    He has always had these "spells" so can't see anything really unusual here. I think this is why he may not be the transfer target others seem sure he is. He's a great player for us (and I love him) , but not the answer for other "bigger clubs" unless they are looking to add more depth rather...

    [Football] England V Wales

    Southgate is the incumbent and, despite my opinions on his tactical nouse and conservative approach, will get my support tomorrow! I felt a bit sorry for Bellingham on Friday as he was let down, in my opinion, by Saka and Sterling not dropping in defensively and consequently being dragged out...

    [Albion] Are we being too precious?

    It's galling because it is so deep, all at once and to one club, however, it is the reality of our place in the food-chain. I think we come out of this well as a Club, and Chelsea may do very well out of it - they don't have the time, or are not prepared to build over so much time so they have...

    [Albion] Paul Winstanley joins Chelsea as Director of Global Talent and Transfers

    Got to love a USA job title/department... "Global Talent and Transfers" no doubt called "GTAT " by the execs, creaming over their starbucks and danish as they push for "face-time" and thank GW for "reaching out".. Tw@ts

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Aston Villa *** Official Match Thread ***

    It was a tight game, horribly frustrating but became a predictable pantomime. I thought if we scored 1st we would be fine, but Lallana going off changed it and I agree with others, thought it was strange that Gilmour (or Veltman to free Gross) didn't come on.. Tbf, it was so early that the...

    [Albion] ** BHA v Aston Villa ** - Premier League Score Predictor - Now in it's 12th SEASON !!

    Emery will focus on counter-attack - last night showing their vulnerability at pushing higher , plus Watkins/Bailey better breaking. The start of the game crucial - if we score 1st then I think we win comfortably, but I think Villa will dig deep and not risk leaving gaps for us... 1-1

    [Football] England World Cup Squad

    This nails it for me. I had no expectation that any BHA players would get anywhere near, but the impact of including Maguire goes beyond his personal form right now, the need to cover and be risk averse. "not losing" does not get you over the line in tournament football. Flexing according to...

    [Albion] ** League Cup - Score Predictor - Now in it’s 12th SEASON !,

    This will have fallen so far down the Arsenal radar.. as a club given their start to the PL, the Europa League and for players the World Cup.. two much changed sides, but with ours having a 1st and rare opportunity to show new manager what they can do.. Haven't seen the injury list, but starts...

    [Albion] Did anyone actually ask Graham for an apology?

    How it could have played out.. "What did you make of the boos Graham, did the reaction surprise you?" "Not really. The crowd made for a difficult atmosphere, and the start the team made heightened it.. It's all a bit of a pantomime, but honestly, my disappointment and "surprise" was in our 1st...

    [Albion] Will you be booing Potter and Chelsea on Saturday?

    I think we are winding ourselves up necessarily here! I have been a huge GP fan throughout his tenure; loved him, his methods, his persona and ultimately his performance. Always grateful. However, I will join in the panto of it all.. part of what "we" fans do every week .. If anything it will...

    [NSC] A giant flag for the North (and other stands)

    Blimey - you can over-think some things. Someone getting on and doing something .. design, like kit will always be debatable, but ultimately someone is doing it.. thumbs up..

    [Football] Will Potter succeed at Chelsea?

    I couldn't care less how he gets on to be honest..

    [Albion] Potter: Thank you or **** you

    of course its "Thank you" but I voted the other way 'coz that's how I feel right now.. I will get over it, we all will and we hope that the next team in can inspire the players that the current success is absolutely still the trajectory.. but it's Ok to feel hurt, peed off and angry as that's...

    [Albion] RATE Albion's transfer window

    He may not be the like for like replacement but his profile, (age/potential/sell-on opportunity) and I am sure you can agree he is at least a central midfielder is back-up for the area if Caicedo were to leave? In the same way that Undav is not the same player as Welbeck, and doesn't have the...

    [Albion] RATE Albion's transfer window

    Agree with the sentiment Jem, but really, if Welbeck is injured, who right now would you be confident in doing the role that he has done effectively for 4 and a half games? Sure, other players "can do a job" and we can try them, as we did at Fulham, and we may find new ways of coping using...

    [Albion] RATE Albion's transfer window

    Great business for the Club.. great fees secured and crucially a LB signed to enable us to play with 4 at the back. Gilmour is an exciting potential and provides us with immediate back-up should the Fat Cats come calling for Caicedo in January with more money than sense. BUT.. I too am concerned...

    [Albion] Welbeck 2

    See Kalajdsik ha signed for Wolves : £15m. Thought he might be a decent option, albeit only seen him playing for Austria. Were we linked at one point?
