Oops, post duplicated!

Like most on here, I think Poyet leaving is inevitable. Unlike some on here, I'm not so confident that his loss will automatically lead us into a better world. Yes, we might be lucky and end up with the new Sir Alex, but we could equally be unlucky and end up with a complete tosser. It's a...

Consider where we were the month before Gus joined us, and then look at where we are now. Do you honestly think Gus did not play a major part in getting us where we are? Losing Gus might not be the utopia that many of you seem to think ........

We had two P.E. Teachers at my school, Mike Smith and Mike Yaxley, remember them? Mike Yaxley went on to carve out a very successful career as Albion physio ... and Mike Smith surpassed that. Smithy became Team Manager of Wales! No wonder we had a sh*t hot school football team. Mike Smith...

If anyone gets the chance, you should try and view the interview before the champers handover. Winifred's body language is the perfect definition of resignation. I hope he gets the job of giving the team talk before Monday's game. He'd given up. You could tell he thinks they've blown it.

If you had no interest in Lampard's record, why did you bother to even open the thread ... let alone post on it?

W God, no. I've been as big a fan of AEA as the next man, but Winifred would have a field day against him. El Adam isn't quick enough.

I sincerely hope nobody invades the pitch on Monday. It's not a final, it's a semi-final. How many pitch invasions do you see in F.A. Cup semi-finals? Don't turn us into a tinpot mentality crowd.

I agree with most of that, but I'm not sure Bradford was swept under the carpet. Lessons did get learned. How many wooden stands have been built since the tragedy? I don't know the answer to that, but I'd wager the answer is probably zero. ... And thank god for smoking bans.

So being an Albion fan means you can only appreciate anything BHA related, and you're not allowed to be a general footy fan? Lampard's achievement would be exceptional for an out and out striker, but for a midfielder it's simply phenomenal. It's embarrassing that there are idiots on here who...

You've got to admit, Gus has made us very hard to beat. You've also got to admit, we aren't finding it easy to roll teams over either. Statistics show that we are very much the draw specialists in this league, and even if we win a couple of our last three games, the odds must still be on us...

Tony Mowbray's team talk last Saturday ...

I will be absolutely ecstatic if we win all of our next 7 games by 1-0. :albion2::clap2::albion2::clap2:

Born in the front bedroom of my dad's council house in Selsdon, the posh part of Croydon for those that don't know ... well that's if you compare it to the thiefdom up the road called New Addington. Fortunately football has never caught on in Croydon and they don't have a team worth mentioning...

Here's a possible small claim to fame for you .... My boy does a day release type thing from his school, and works one day a week at a local employer. Craig Strachan (one of Gordon's sons) works at the same place. Football is an obvious topic of conversation most of the time. A few weeks ago...

Corrected for accuracy ....

Really? I recall driving past a primary school a day or so after Eric Cantona's famous drop kick at Smelhurst. The playground was full of little boys practicing Kung Fu kicks on their playmates. There were so many doing it, it actually looked quite amusing and I stayed to watch for a few...

It looked entirely in keeping with Man U's global image to be more accurate. Man U players invented the art of surrounding/haranguing/abusing match officials if one of them dared to make a decision against Man U.

You are only allowed to defer once, so you need to be careful. You might decide to defer for a fairly trivial reason, just because you don't fancy it, and when your second calling comes it might be at a time that is unbelievably inconvenient for you ... but you won't be allowed to refuse. I've...

People recall the items that they 'want to hear'. It's human nature. Reference was probably made in the presentations to 'enforcement being relaxed' in the back four rows. This will have been interpreted by the listener as concrete permission to stand up ad infinitum. It's not though, is it.
