You should have got someone to wave a scarf or something and loads of people would have stopped for you, hopefully fellow Albion fans.

Indeed, the best cod 'n'chips in a long while .... and for just £2.20 !!


The pubs were cheap too, a round of 5 drinks was only £5.50, and the local whorehouse has a BOGOF offer on match days too, I should have stayed there for another 90 minutes at least.

To be honest it wouldn't have helped. Most of our time was spent with a girlie style investigation into which type of key fitted the alloy wheels. Once that was done we were finished within 15 minutes.

We were outplayed by the whipping boys of the division. in reality Crewe looked okay going forward but obviously shockinh at the back, but sadly we haven't the frontline to expose that.

Without signing a proven striker on loan we're going down, and even if we got one now it may be too late now.

You were lucky Hannibal. My only experience of a tyre blowing out was on a Hockey Tour to Cape Town. We were about 50 miles outside the city and on our way to a day safari when the front kerbside tyre blew out at about 70 Mph. The driver somehow managed to bring the minibus to a halt, without endangering our lives, fortunately it was a dead straight road. We then spent a happy half hour changing the wheel, without the use of a jack, substitute 17 hockey players and brute force.

As we pulled away there was a really strange sound coming from the changed wheel and the van didn't really want to move, it turned out that the wheel we had put on wasn't for a VW Caravelle but for a vehicle somewhat bigger and too large for the wheel arch. There then ensued a somewhat one way conversation between me and the bloke who had hired us the minibus, informing him where it had been abandoned and where he would be delivering the replacement.

:lolol:
Remember driving up to Leiscester for the Coca Cola cup match in the 90's, think I was still on the M23 and had a blow out in the fast lane, when it happens to you it's certainly adrenalin stirring stuff
