Morning All,
Ska'd, if the book is as good as the threads, then you will have a best seller (at least in Sandwell, and some murky areas of the South coast), I will look it up later.
As far as the football is concerned, I think AI will look to consolidate after the last 2 results, and while I believe we have all seen Varela as the talent we have been waiting for, I can see AI relying on his squad over the holiday schedule, and cannot see him taking too many risks.
4 points out of the next 4 matches, and I will be satisfied, as I posted that 20 points or more by Christmas would not be a bad return, and the least we could expect, so anything less than this would be sub standard, and would again place the noose clearly round AI's neck.
I would like to wish ALL footie fans everywhere a safe, happy and productive Christmas and New year, and lets see what 2015 will bring us.
Cheers,
Kookiebags.

Looking forward to the book, Ska'd - don't know about this 'Kindle' lark - didn't he used to play for the Tatters?
I'm sure Christmas is a week earlier this Year. (I usually exchange cards sometime next week, but it's all done now and we're not expecting any more.)
Merry Christmas to everyone. I really like EVERYone on here (now Mousse has gone).

I can only think of one to add:-
Paul Merson says something nice about the Albion..... he's had too many shots.
Merry Xmas everyone.
Some days I'm top dog, most days I'm just the lamp post.

Irvine replaces Verela with Brunt this Saturday,........
Even though Brunt has been out for 2 weeks and is clearly not match fit,

Merry Christmas fellow baggies!
Hoping for 5 points over the chritmas and new year period but will be wore than likely 1 or 2.
Failing to win on Saturday will undo all of the good progress against villa. However a win will ensure back to back victories and will hopefully see a bit more confidence in the team.
Team: Unchanged. Give them 60mins to do the same again then bring on Bera.

Ska'd, congrats on the novel, I'll certainly be buying it for my Kindle, and why am I not surprised you've done this, given your really excellent and readable match previews. They are really good. Well done! A tough four games for Albion coming up, and we could certainly make life easier for ourselves this Saturday by beating QPR and putting space between us and the bottom three. Villa losing to Man Utd would be a bonus, we could overtake them in the table again. Also, our GD is better than most others, so a positive result this weekend could be worth an extra point over the basement strugglers come the spring.
