Depressing to see #wba's lack of policing over comments on their Eid post. Allowing explicitly Islamophobic comments to go unchecked is depressing. I expect it from media organisations desperate for clicks, but not from my club - more so one who claim to champion diversity. It really is a bad look.

After witnessing what Labour has done today to the most vulnerable in society in the UK, whilst failing to acknowledge the massive losses incurred because of Brexit, only reinforces my view - "I aye coming back".

90+11 must easily be the latest goal ever scored by the Albion in normal time? #wba

Ruddy 'eck, Luton bottom as it stands. Last team to go Prem to Lge 1 was the Dingles, yes?

I like the look of this Albion midfield and forward line.

At the last anniversary of Brexit, Nigel tried to put some “tough”questions to me.

It kinda fell flat. So he tried to talk over me… and didn’t invite me back.

Remarkable: Spain's post-2008 GDP has now grown more in % terms than Germany's, mainly thanks to the last three years (h/t @danielkral.bsky.social).

Why bother putting the ball in the box if there's another chance to do a nondescript 5 yard pass I say.

If you're a #wba fan under 30 & wondering what all the fuss is about...or you just want a reminder of what happened before: here's a long read about Tony Mowbray, the man, the manager.

I see Richard Sneekes is weaving his magic at Rushall. 3 wins on trot, including today v Scunny. Great result.

During my lifetime WBA have certainly experienced the highs and lows of the FA Cup!
How great was the Sports Argus btw!!

Moulumby signs new contract until 2028. I'm quite happy with that. He contributes + protects his value. I think we need better but beggars can't be choosers. #wba

Me and J went to watch Tenerife v Deportivo La Coruña two weeks ago - postponed. 1st time in 3 years.

J is back in Wigan today for Latics #wafc v Hudds. His 1st home game in 8 years - postponed. 1st time since Covid.

The lad is a complete jinx.
