    Any more comings and goings?

    Started reading your post and was thinking that I wasn't really being that bed-wettery or defeatist!! Am sure I'm totally wrong but nothing like a bit of a conspiracy theory on a Tuesday morning... Also, any idea how the hell you edit your post nowadays? I'm not sure our bid for Zohore was...

    Any more comings and goings?

    I wonder whether we were truly in for Zohore. I think one of the work permit criteria is that you need to prove you can't get a similar type player from the EU for a similar price. I find it a bit odd that there are reports we make a high seven figure bid for Zohore (that is pretty pubic for...

    Any more comings and goings?

    Would be very surprised to see Skalak in the final 25 - with Izquierdo, Knockaert, March, Murphy & Brown all ahead of him.

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    Sidwell is often brought on when we are defending too deep. He comes on with clear instructions to bring us up the pitch - which he invariably does. I think that is some evidence that we are keen to defend higher up the pitch. Also think bringing a keeper with Ryan's attributes points to us...

    Glass half full or half empty?

    Very much half-full. Only saw the 30 minute highlights on Sky (and listened to the game on radio) but, from what I saw, we were a totally different team when Knockaert came on. We were desperately missing someone picking the ball up and moving it quickly forwards (both dribbling and passing)...

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    Ryan is a totally different type of keeper to Stockdale. I wasn't at the game yesterday but listened to Warren Aspinall berating Ryan for both goals but there was hardly any mention about other things that he did that Stockdale wouldn't have done. The first goal should have been held. Every...

    Ed Bassford - Lord Bracknell

    Desperately sad. I never had the fortune of knowing Ed but I certainly knew of him and what he did to allow me and thousands of other Albion fans to watch the football we do now in our magnificent stadium. Thoughts with his friends and family.

    Do you wet shave?

    Used to use Gillette but now use Men Rock - excellent shave cream and razor and replacement blades cost about 5p...

    [Albion] New song patrol

    On the cornetto theme (to tune of O Sole Mio/Just One Cornetto...) Renato Neto plays by the sea Leading the Albion to victory The Beast who's from Brazil Renato Neto - he's born to thrill

    Izzy Brown

    So glad to hear that. By far the most depressing football news of the summer was when we were being linked with him...

    Taxi for Cairney

    Don't think it is anywhere to be seen on twitter now - so, whatever he meant, I guess he felt he should take it down...

    Does anybody know why this kid is wearing an Albion shirt?

    Garcia himself retweeted the story as well..:

    Stockdale OFF ***to Birmingham - Official***

    Yep - Same as Stephens. Given everything he has done this season, another masterstroke by the club to keep him for the year and let his contract run down. Yes - we were always risking losing him for free but without him and Stephens (ie if we'd cashed in last summer or January), I don't think we...

    So come on... who cried?

    He was definitely blubbing!

    So come on... who cried?

    I kept it totally together until I got home and my daughter ran out the house shouting 'Daddy, did we win? Did we win?' - then I lost it totally...

    Would you sleep in a double bed with your 13-year old opposite sex child?

    Totally agree. I don't have a 13 (or 16) year old daughter but I think society is seriously messed up if people have issues with what happened to you. If a hotel only had a double room, I personally can see no issue with sleeping in the same bed with my daughter or son.

    Sheffield Wed v Reading

    Same here - would love them to miss out and Fulham to get into the play-offs (as long as we didn't come 3rd and have to play them!)

    Paul McCarthy RIP

    Terrible, terrible news - thoughts with his friends and family

    Vote for Stockdale for best save.

    Totally agree. Was definitely a good save but probably not even in his top 5 of the year.

    Big thank you to the club.

    So pleased for you and your family - and hats off to the club for going the extra mile in times like this.
