That would actually be very funny and just what McClean deserves after insulting the country that provides his huge wages and the English countrymen whose flag he insulted.

The trouble as I see it though Stairs is that we are not that much a 'developing' team or club, we've been in this division for six years now and we seem to have gone backwards since the Steve Clarke and Roy Hodgson days - our players are better than the ones we had then but the football, and the approach to playing football, is pathetic.

But why oh why does it take so long ..... look at palace even wet sham playing reasonable football in top ten. They have an advantage being in London, easier to attract players but what happened to all our rough diamonds .......
Add Leicester to that list - they must be great to watch compared to Albion.
