Seeing his name appear in the accounts thread got me to wondering where he was now?
As far as I can see he is without a club which would seem to say an awful lot!

Anyone feel inclined to pop over to the Rotherham Forum and say sorry for the referee?

And add well done to 100 odd who made the trip down

I was a little late (midday today, Thursday) getting on line for this one and was faced with not a lot of choice so looks like another sell out is already on the cards

I thought that seeing as how Glyn has returned to the fold somewhat it might be germane to revive this old favourite of his?
Just as a bit of harmless fun
Myself I think a touch of the Stars and Stripes might work?
Though mods might want to remove the poll?

I was getting quite peeved by their endless theatrics, diving, surrounding the ref and all round shithousery.
Cost 'em in the end as the ref went quite anti them and even made their best actor stand on the line for 30 seconds despite no medics coming on
Think we are rapidly using up all our 'get out of jail free' cards with recent first half performances though

Well, well, well what a surprise
The sale of tickets has been delayed for Albion’s Sky Bet Championship fixture at Leicester City.

The Baggies visit King Power Stadium on Saturday, April 20 (ko 12.30pm).

Details and a new set of sales dates will be confirmed at the earliest possible opportunity, and the club apologises for any inconvenience caused.

Given the speed of ticket sales for this fixture I wouldn't be surprised to see Leicester and Sheffield Wednesday tickets being sold on a loyalty points basis.

A good idea but they still need to set out the criteria soon so people can look for their opportunity dates and mark their diaries/outlook

OMG, I completely forgot and am too late already. Gutted. Can I appeal to anyone who may have a spare to let me know. I will take it please.

Put a reminder in your outlook or phone for 10.00 on the 27th for Leicester tickets!

Just found the 'after 10.00' notification 
Done! 
That now means her indoors can't make me go on a trip I've been avoiding committing to! BoingBoing!!!!

Could be wrong but given the delay in ticket release I have a feeling kick-off time and possibly date will be subject to police approval. That OR we're getting a shed load of tickets at £30+.

Have we suddenly become known as a bunch of naughty boys needing early kick off times?
That worked well against the dogheads didn't it?

Saint's game against Preston today has been called off due to a big fire next to the ground and is going to throw a spanner into the various points calculations until they pull back the game in hand it gives them
I'm thinking more about the points difference with Preston than the 11 points Southampton have on us

Feels like typical Albion tonight. Big night celebration for the fans and a no show on the pitch. We certainly know how to spoil a party.

Have to admit having an Astle game deja vu moment myself last night

So has the 50yr old bloke from Dudley who apparently doesn't look anything like the person Bacuna pointed out been sent down yet or are the club and police still searching for inconclusive evidence for something which may or may not have happened? Genuine question as this incident seems to have gone very quiet.

Equally quiet (unless I've missed it) about how the doghead ended up in the midst of the players families?

I'm an old codger who's been going to games, home and away, for a very long time and can honestly say I have never seen any evidence of cocaine use in all that time. I sit (stand most of the time) to the rear of the Smethwick, have an old mans weak bladder so frequent the toilets regularly yet somehow I seem to have missed this scourge on the game.
What am I doing wrong?
It's far too easy to say it's all due to the 'coke sniffers' without admitting to the ills and woes of the populace of this poor bedraggled country of ours and especially the much abused support base of our great club by its current and recent ownership structures. I guess I'm trying to say Sunday's madness was an accumulative event, a conflation of many and varied factors over which the majority of supporters and the club have very little control and its a bit of a cop out to blame it all on 'coke heads' 
as ever COYB and see some of you at the bluenoses game
