Albion (obsessed)

[YouGottaRaulWithIt]

Is this leading up to the Dwarf Comedian Joke,

Go on.

 

[Fenrir_]

What would folk prefer... regular top flight derby games against them or to watch them plummet into obscurity?

Plummet, not total obscurity though, National League will do

 

[chignalwolf]

Go on.

Careful how i put this,
An Albion Dwarf Comedian was in a Wolves pub giving it the big un, the landlord kicks him out saying, " your not big and you aint funny"

 

[arctic rime]

deep do do

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

What star players

They have sellable assets as spoken about 3 players that might get them 15/20m at the most lol. The rest are very average players so yeah we all know they are now paddling around the creek with no paddle

 

[Mardenboroughs Shoulder]

I don't think that boiler thingy they parade before the games will fetch much? Probably only on loan from Ideal? The new definition of a boiler suit?

 

[hollo]

Which players of theirs should we buy? Do they still have good youth players?

 

[Wolves Heathen]

They would probably get what 20m for what their entire squad?

Thomas-Asante, Dike, Grant & Diangana probably be picked up by the promoted teams maybe. Iv just looked on Transfermarkt they don’t have much else to write home about. Not good for wanting us to play them

Still funny for those to prod fun at them!!

None of the players you have mentioned get in the team week in week out and they don't have any PL standard players, Diangana and Grant are probably the biggest earners but assets no way, Dike is injury prone and is goal shy, TA is a young promising player at his level which is mid table Championship, their 2 most saleable assets are Wallace and Yokuslu who might bring them in 10 million in total if they are lucky both were free transfer signings, after that it's basically move Grant and Diangana off the wage bill for whatever they can get, they will be in the brown stuff if they don't get promoted even their most biased fan will tell you that.

 

[hollo]

I went on the west brom forum and they are petrified of what could happen to them?

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Its a race between them and Blues to go bump first.

Just think if they had to merge to survive what the fans would say.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

It wasn’t that long ago that they were saying they could catch Sheffield United.

 

[Highlandwolf2]

Don't see the "enjoyment" in any club possibly going bust. Ignoring numbskull supporters, their fans deserve better. The Due Diligence test for potential new owners is a sham, a PR tool.

Been replaced by heat pumps so no chance, unless a museum wants it

Loads of old boilers in West Brom (cheap joke...)

You looking for a sainthood?
There is no creek stenchy enough and they can never be far enough up it as far as I'm concerned.

Er... no. Funnily enough it is my opinion...

It is. But clubs need to think about more than money when selecting sponsors.

If I were a female Albion fan, I wouldn’t wear anything with Ideal Boilers on it. A few years ago Swindon had “Imagine Cruising “ and my son in law refused to wear club clothing with that on.

God knows what Notlob were thinking

 

[Werewolf of Wombourne]

Which players of theirs should we buy? Do they still have good youth players?

We should be going nowhere near any of their squad, we might not be shopping in Harrod's or Selfridges yet but we've no need to go to Heron Foods or Supersavers!

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Dike?

This.

I do not want them or any other club bust.

They can however languish in league 2 for a few years for me.

 

[Supadavewolf]

They're incapable of even catching the train to Sheffield.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

I don't want them to go bump, that's an end to their suffering. I'd prefer them to slide to the point that Walsall are their local derby. And stay down there for years.

Good, I hope it keeps them up at night, and they wake up late, and miss their job centre appointment and the DWP sanction them.

 

[Supadavewolf]

There is a small part of me that feels sorry for them.

It's my appendix, taken out in 1960.

They love each other, the weirdos, united in their hatred of the big West Mids two.

God, imagine a fanbase with the IQ of Boggies and the aggression of 'noses.... It would literally be the missing link....

Me and @sedgwolf1980 used to say, its like the scruff clubs attract each other

It's true. I grew up in Redditch and Blues fans liked the ****.

Although I don't see Blues fans as any scruffier than us - they're a bit like us imo and one reason why there's been so much aggro over the years.

Poor Albion. Lol

The peasants are revolting..

 

[JadeWolf]

What are they singing, we want our cobs back?

 

[glorybox]

They were holding the banner single handedly. The benefit of excess fingers.

 

[Wall heath Wanderer]

They want their club back eh?


I think this is a fair compensation, especially considering the chocolate is probably worth more

 

[Norman Bell]

Apparently there are reports that the start of the march was delayed as a large number of Baggies were eating takeouts. The well known biological fact that they cannot walk and eat at the same time as it causes too much confusion and overloading in the cranial area meant the food had to be eaten first.

West Brom chiefs raise fears for future as accounts revealed

They are bang in trouble as a club. A guy on the Albion forum who has looked at it in detail estimates they need to raise £20m in player sales and slash their wage bill, or find outside investment, to even make it to the end of next season. If they don't go up there will be a £36m black hole in their finances from losing the parachute payments and they have already burnt through half of the £20m loan they took out just to make it through to the end of this season.
It appears promotion this season was absolutely vital to their survival as a club and it doesn't look like they are going to get it.

I want the **** to survive. Of course they may have to drop to their natural level to do so....

The West Midlands League Division 2 it is then....

 

[Minimalist]

Not trying to make a joke here,
I don’t know much about their squad. But how many players would they need sell to raise £20m?
6? 10??

Their squad is a mixture of old has-beens, younger not good enough players, and kids who perhaps have potential but....

I'm actually not sure that you could sell the whole club as a going concern for £20M. Particularly as the current owners would doubtless try to put something in any contract preventing action to seek repayment of the loans that they (and the previous owners) took from the club and haven't paid back.
