Born in Kenya, moved to Handsworth in 1968 ( Sorry UKIP Nigel-- I sneaked in before you had a Chance to stop me-Haha!!). First game at the Shrine was against Man United. Hooked on the Baggies ever since. Moved to Stoke for 3 years to study but still supported the Baggies. Moved to Manchester(more Studying) in 1981 very near the Old Man City Ground. Went to see City & Utd a few times BUT NOTHING Could match the Site or Wille, Asa, Laurie ( RIP), Bomber, Big Cyrille et al playing. Oh how I miss those days!!. Moved to North Wales in 1984 ( work) but try and get to The Shrine when visiting the Handsworth Hood to see Parents & friends--- last visit 22/10/2014 against UTD. Sat next to a lovely Chap who was trying to convert his young Lad from The Dingles-- easy job, no contest.
