I am Albion thorough and thorough but I find it heart breaking to watch our great club getting torn apart by poor managers, worse owners, dire football and passion less, clueless headless chickens ...... this is a slow agonising death over three or four years.of abysmal boardroom decisions, I can't take much more.
I have said this before ..... when we drew away at Bristol Rovers, I was back there in August for a 6 - 3 win over Exeter ....... so maybe, but the hurt can't keep coming ...... it must change.
Rant and waffle over ....... come on you Baggies, Albion til I die.
I'm of the same opinion - I normally get in the Richardsons Suite and have a meal, etc But at £240 for me and the Mrs to go against PNE I've decided to give it a miss. I'm not finding it enjoyable atm. I enjoyed the charity match at Stourbridge today though. and happy to make a donation towards Mary Stevens Hospice
You sure you are not Fireymoose ?

same here, a few games a season now, i had to give up the season ticket about 8 years ago, 3 kids !!! I recently took my son to his first game, he is 5. Trust me to pick the Sheffield United match though. My first game was in 1985, pretty much when the passion kicked in, i will listen to all games, regardless where i am, or watch them on sky when we are on, however, for the first time on saturday, i actually lost interest, most unlike me. Like yourself i have been there through the think and thin, the good times, the bad times.......i am not sure where we are even at now. Its become all about the money for the ones that run us, no passion, nothing, just seen as a money making machine, however, we now need an over draft to make that happen !! If we are not careful we will become another Bolton, just look where there were a few years ago. Perhaps Phil Penn can become manager and buy me and my son a season ticket. Wine and dine me Phil

Wine and dine me Phil  Wouldn't it be great if I could treat people and put smiles on people's faces. Sadly the bank doesn't let me do that. If I won lotto I could help so many people. I am only in the UK for another 4 weeks and then I'm off back to.France. It sounds extravagant but my house in France is in the countryside. It's a quarter of the price of the same house in.the UK. Weather is better and lots of things cheaper. I can recommend some demi-sec wine at £1 a bottle it's a bit like asti. That's enough boring stuff have a good day.

Hmm! so Shan's no longer the man eh? Well there's a surprise. He had a reaction, got his share of luck but, just like poor old Dave he'd been thrown in the deep end without his inflatable. Remember that old advert "Learn to swim young man, learn to swim. " If this farce pitches us against Villa in the play offs, and I know my luck suggests it will, and we lose to that lot, which knowing my luck AND history, we will. Then I fear we are in for similar times to the 90's before Megson kicked arse. What the actual f*** were the board playing at when they decided to sack BD? Did they even have a plan? I personally believed, wrongly it now seems, that they would pull out all the stops and at least get someone in that got teams promoted out of this division, even if they weren't premiership proven but no, whilst the media and bookies peddled the usual suspects out, odds on favourites and a few surprises. Poor old Shan scraped our arses over the line for a couple of matches against poor opposition and hey presto a scapegoat was born, a sacrificial lamb to the slaughter and with it a thin veil of hope resurfaced of auto promotion, only to sink faster than the titanic after a humiliation at Millwall. Quite fitting don't you think? Lions den, Sacrificial lamb! Thumb down on the whole sorry saga from me. I like others on here have had enough of this S**t shower. Im simply bored, resigned and moribund. I also said several years back that whilst Jeremy 'ebenezer' Peace wasn't the golden child. He had at least kept the business in the black with a frugal, modest but sensible plan, and there is the key word, A PLAN! We don't even seem to have one of those anymore. We have a corporate chinese business man with no background, no passion or football pedigree. We are another business for him, nothing more nothing less. The lord is indeed our shepherd now and we're really going to need his help in the next 6 weeks. So sing loud and proud from those terraces before the lights go out. He lay me down to sleep. AMEN!

Baggieone, that hurts, that's hitting below the belt. No I am not fireymoose, I am the polar opposite, I don't cause rows, I try to defuse them, I don't attack managers, I support them, I don't lambast the team, I get behind them ....... but I remember the golden age of the seventies, even then we throw away glorious chances of silverware, Ipswich, Queens Park Rangers etc ...... but there maybe a time when the hurt, the disappointments, the same old mistakes don't heal ..... at the moment, that time is fast approaching.
We currently make Brexit look like a well organised tea party ......

Baggieman, be careful, there's a woman who flew to Dubai to take her daughter to her ex husbands funeral, she was arrested and is facing two years in jail for calling his new wife a horse on Facebook, so calling me fireymoose must be worth a twenty stretch surely .......
But to show I am not him ...... I forgive you both, no hard feelings, no offence taken.

Sorry to disappoint but alas i'm not Firey Moose/Mouse. He's supposed to be in Italy on the Vino - Ares22 was after him a while back.
I'm just a frustrated over reactive fan. Who spouts crap a lot of the time but I do know it and I am my own worst critic.
I humbly apologise to anyone who I may have offended in short time i've been hanging around here. (I know I've been OTT sometimes)
I'm barred from sitting with the real fans now cause of my dicky ticker - hence the Richardson's suite.
How I miss being in the BRE before the stupid seats went in. Willie sitting on the advertising boards having a swig of beer.
Batson, Cunningham & Regis who just shut the racists up with great football. Then laughed at them, the good old days them.
