Many thanks for sharing that old montage of mine and for plugging the novel! Am busy putting the finishing touches on the second (though for Silver's benefit, I'm sorry to say that it's not a sequel, but something completely different).
A while ago I dug out the programme from when Huddersfield visited the Hawthorns in 1992, just a month or so after Kevin Donovan came to us. The player interview on the back page was with Kev, and it was loaded with many a cheap dig at his former employers (I seem to recall they asked him what the best day of his life was, and he replied "leaving Huddersfield and coming to Albion.") Obviously wasn't a happy departure at the time!
A quarter of a century on, and irrespective of my feelings on Pulis, obviously I want us to get three points from this any way we can. With the fixtures we've got coming up, we can't afford to be teetering on the precipice. But if it works out otherwise, I just hope it'll be enough to stun our owners into some kind of action.
