[Albion] No English players on the pitch

[Bozza]

…with Welbeck being subbed off, and both Dunk and Hinshelwood missing.

Has this happened before?

Sorry - I meant in the Albion side.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Fairly sure we have had a starting lineup without one, seem to remember it being mentioned on here - but don't quote me on that

 

[Hamilton]

Lamprey is surely half English half Ghanaian?

Did he come on when Danny went off?

 

[WATFORD zero]

He's from west Laandon but came on later. We went 7 mins with no English players today

 

[Deadly Danson]

F***ing foreigners ruining everything as usual. I didn't sign up to Brexit or vote for Farage and send money to Tommy Robinson for us to blow a 2-0 lead.

 

[Birdie Boy]

Strangely, I watched the first half with a Glaswegian Celtic fan and he said the same, not about just us though, all games that were playing.

 

[Giraffe]

Not at the start but Lamptey was born in Hillingdon so that counts in my book.

 

[Javeaseagull]

Not entirely relevant but I watched AC Milan in mid-week and I think they had one Italian. In fact it may have been none, not sure.

That's fishing about for an Englishman.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Lamprey is surely half English half Ghanaian?

And half stone-licker

 

[kojak]

Just aswell
I mean when was the last time England won anything
When milk cost 9d

Not sure, but either way, a little piece of @Bry Nylon's insides has died -

The day that Albion field 11 non-British players, managed by a foreign manager...​

RIP little piece of @Bry Nylon's insides

Ha! Good find!

To be honest, 12 years on I find myself indifferent tbh.

I was out this afternoon, having spent the morning watching the U14 side i coach and for the first time in decades I completely forget we were even playing. And whilst back in times past, chucking 2 points down the shitter in added time would have entirely and irredeemably ruined my whole week, today it barely registered as an irritation.

I think so far as me and the Albion are concerned these days, it’s feeling a lot like we’re approaching a “It’s not you; it’s me” situation.

Is Hinsh injured?

Is Hinsh injured?

No
dwayne selected the squad today

 

[Dave the OAP]

Someone today said…..we have spent over £200 million on players who are no better than what we had last season….. it’s early days but in a way I can see the argument.

hopefully oreily when he gets fit will be a step up from a few very young players who are still learning the game


BTW why did he take off baleba?

Complete and utter bollox.

Probably the Starting (or best) XI isn't a huge upgrade but our depth of squad and bench is a massive upgrade. In the latter half of last season we were utilising half the U21s to get a full squad together.

Back to the subject in hand….
