The guys from The Beat apparently are/were Baggies, though.

SKA'd, I've seen a few pics of him wearing an Albion top on stage in an old Albion match day programme , I also heard that when ever he signed into any hotel around the world he signed the register WBA, however as you say it was a fad with him I think.

He was certainly never around in the 1990s and 2000s, and if memory serves he's been connected much more with Chelsea in recent times. Saw him as a guest on the old Frank Skinner Show years back, about half an hour on air without a single mention of WBA, not even as a private joke with Frank. It just doesn't scream "diehard Baggie", does it?

The real cynic would suggest that his interest lasted for as long as we had three top-class black players, because his career at that time was dogged by certain remarks he'd made on stage in Birmingham one night whilst under the influence.

Agree Ska'd. I think it started when Johnny Giles was with us then as you say when we were rockin late 70's early 80's when we were fashionable.

I read somewhere that Allan Ahlberg, the children's, author is a Baggies fan. Wish the Jolly Postman would deliver us some more players in this transfer market!!


RE: Celebrity Fans - talkSAFT - 29-07-2017

...talking of authors, I think Ian Richards is a Baggie. Wink
