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...
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...
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...
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)...
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...
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.
On the cornetto theme (to tune of O Sole Mio/Just One Cornetto...)

Renato Neto - he's born to thrill
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...
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.
