When I were a lad, I had to walk to The Hawthorns...... backwards......over hot coals........with holes in me shoes...... whilst being shot at by away fans with cattas!

Kids these days  ??? Don't know they are born  :)

holes in your shoes !! HOLES IN yeah SHOES !!
when i were a lad we had never heard of shoes, we was so poor we wore bulls shins strapped on to our feet with liquorice laces, by the time we walked to B71 they were just tender enuf to chew on at half time before we strapped em back on to skip merrily all the way down forge lane, and we beat the bus home!

Well....
By SHOES, I mean foot shaped nests of rusty nails held together by barbed wire.
As for LIQOURICE! Closest we got to LIQOURICE was if a drop of Pernod dripped from the Woodman's bin and landed on our bowl of halftime sawdust.
Never heard us complain though!

That's a pretty good stab at a Norfolk accent for a Black Country Lad  ::)

I don't think it is a wind up, the poster has said a few times that he is 14 and autistic, so while something as mundane as getting home from school and catching the bus might not seem a big deal to non autistic grown adults, it obviously is to him. Autistic people tend to struggle with changes in routine.

Was enjoying the Monty Pythonesque banter of Setteefeet and Albionic though!

Suppose it all depends on whether he's 14 and autistic really.

Highly improbable but I could be a six foot white rabbit called Kevin for all you know.

That or a Dingle or a Viler posing as an Albion supporter.
It doesn't matter how many resources you have.
If you don't know how to use them, they will never be enough.
Oh, and always remember to defecate on those Vile chaps in claret and spew.

It says 5/6 but it’s actually 6 out of 6. The Swansea midweek game will be live on the red button .

Outrageous! How I hate Sky, and I really do mean ‘hate’. Another day out ruined. I am convinced that what is needed is some organisation of real fans to sabotage the Sky broadcasts, it would be so satisfying to actually stop them showing some matches. What would be done if some large banners were on display behind the goals with slogans telling Sky where to get off?

They would be removed. No club is going to risk upsetting their paymaster.

After that run of games I bet we have been on the box more times than the whole of the last season.

Advanced apologies to the Mods and anyone else this may offend as that is not my intention.

But.........

Sky's f*****8 sh it,
Sky's f*****8 sh it,
Sky's f*****8 sh it, Sky's f*****8 sh it, Sky's f*****8 sh it.

I'd prefer to get behind the Albion but it's worth a thought  ;) .

Leeds fans have been abusing Sky at games this season and have had their chants muted by the broadcaster. It would be great if Albion fans joined in with them on Saturday.

Why, if they are going to be muted so not heard by anyone not in the ground? Surely the point would be for them to be heard by the viewing public?
