    That’s become the trouble with the premier league just because someone has spent £18million on a player it doesn’t make them good enough and Ibe is in that category.

    Was Strachen a Pointless Manager?

    The trouble with Strachan was he did build two good teams player wise but each one he managed to bugger up, he seemed to have this destruct button and how he saw Richard Shaw and Paul Williams were premier quality is beyond me, Shaw was here for ten years ffs! and Williams his partner for six of...

    When Robbie Keane was signed from Wolves it created quite a story throughout football but I remember that cynical arsehole Rodney Marsh saying on radio Keane will be sold on in a year to Leeds, his co-pundit Frank McLintock told him he was talking crap, as we know Robbie went to Inter Milan...

    If I remember correctly Albion had a goal disallowed and might have missed a penalty, or that might have been the 6-1 bollocking a couple of seasons earlier, we’ve had some right hammerings there.

    Do you wipe the blood from your knife ? I don’t know what is good enough or not but in fairness to Boddy under the last regime and that excuse of a chairman he was chief cook and bottle washer. Hopefully things will be easier now with more hands at the pump.

    Boddy can concentrate on the administration and commercial side of the club wether that attracts the position of c.e.o. we will see.

    I thought that West Brom team with a young Cyrille Regis and Laurie Cunningham were a bloody good side, but once big fat Ron left for Man United losing Bryan Robson, Remi Moses to United and Cunningham to Real Madrid ripped the heart out of Albion.

    The problem with Bellamy was he was signed just recovering from injury, ACL I think so spent his year here getting fit and up to speed, once he left no matter where he went he was very good.

    Starting with McFadz has to be a good chance doesn’t have to run round like a 2 year old just stay central and marshall the back line. If he starts it will be interesting who Robins plays along side him assuming he goes with wing backs he’ll have a choice of Rose, McNally, Doyle & Panzo we...

    Have to agree with that, strange thing is the sub goalie Kirkland went on to be one of our best ever keepers.

    That’s a bonus regarding Swift. if West Brom fail to go up and implode financially I’d love Robins to seriously look at grabbing him. Another ex-Chelsea.

    My guess is we will be moving into the foreign market perhaps bigger than we are now. This chap from Wimbledon will have his team of contacts as will Dean Austin I think we are lagging behind in the scouting/recruitment side of the club and it’s good to see something is being done about it.
