    Michael Laudrupp sacked by email.

    Seems pretty poor show but then again, without knowing both sides of the story, it isn't easy to say one way or another. Plenty of people said we sacked Poyet by email when he was live on the BBC, when in reality, it was only confirmation of what he already knew was coming.

    UK Comedy Cup 2014 - Round of 16 ROUNDUP

    Not a single upset. Have to question the underdogs' team selections. Magic of the cup...

    Enamel BHA pin badges - would anyone be interested in buying them?

    They do a dolphin t-shirt and a dolphin mouse mat. Not see the lapels though. They do, of course, however do a brilliant Seagulls smiley face badge.

    Enamel BHA pin badges - would anyone be interested in buying them?

    How about one of Inigo Calderon's face in black and white with 'Gentleman footballer' underneath?

    So How Do You Feel About Semis At Wembley Now

    Don't have a problem with it. Problem with having it at smaller grounds is that, once corporate tickets etc and smaller capacities are taken into account, some clubs could end up in a position where even all their season ticket holders can't get a ticket. I'd be gutted if we made a semi final...

    Calderon, Orlandi and Bruno Visit Chestnut Tree House

    Probably my favourite ever Albion player. What a gentleman.

    Enamel BHA pin badges - would anyone be interested in buying them?

    I would say the retro style ones would be best - the standard crest ones are fairly easy to come by either in the shop or online. I like ones like the older style ones in the Half Man Half Biscuit pics - the deck of cards, or the big blue fist.

    Enamel BHA pin badges - would anyone be interested in buying them?

    Definitely Get one with a dolphin on it. They are hard to come by and proper retro.

    4-4-2ers: This is for you

    We certainly started 4231 last time. It meant Ulloa was far less isolated because he had Forster-Caskey not far behind him. Worked well in that sense. But lack of width limited Lua Lua's impact on the ball. I would like to see us play the same 4231 formation but with Orlandi in the left hand role.

    FA Cup run worth between £650,000-£700,000 so far

    Not 'made' as such - because club is obviously £14.7million in the red - but according to Paul Barber value of the cup run so far (taking into account Monday's TV money) to achieving the £8million loss needed for FFP is between £650,000-£700,000 after club's costs. A very welcome financial...

    Fuming at Oscar!!!

    Andrews wasn't amazing - but equally wasn't terrible. Also, fail to see who we could have played instead in that midfield position who would realistically have been better.

    Lua lua

    We played 4231. It got players closer to Ulloa who most would agree has been too isolated in recent weeks. It also got the best out of Jake Forster-Caskey operating in the middle of the three. It just meant we sacrificed a bit of width and that limited the impact of Lua Lua in wide areas...

    Obika

    He must have either been very promising earlier in his career or have an amazing agent if he is still under contract at a Premier League club at the age of 23 despite being not very good.

    Lewis Dunk

    Superb performance. Impressed with his use of the ball and weight of pass which was very good. Would like to see him play alongside Upson more as I think Upson will help bring on his game - same goes for Chicksen.

    Lua lua

    People are being a touch harsh on him. The Albion were playing more of a 4231 than a 433, which left Lua Lua far more central. He worked pretty hard closing down the full back from that position who wasn't exactly slow himself. I think the space he was getting was more because of our tactics...

    Starting 11 for tomorrow night

    Exactly. Why can't we just pick our best team for this game AND the next league game?

    Starting 11 for tomorrow night

    I am happy with where we are in the league, don't expect promotion - certainly won't criticise Oscar if we don't get it. Not a massive Oscar fan yet, but certainly not anti-him in any way, shape or form. He is finding his feet here and the early signs are encouraging. So far so good. All looks...
