Hard time dropping off last night?

I feel quite sad about this, but I'm not surprised. I hope most fans give him a good send off tomorrow, remembering that he presided over two of the greatest seasons in the club's history. Like it or not, this is the Albion way under Bloom. A coach is not going to get massive stars on big...

Good player, who I hope will be employed by Southgate this summer. However, I can only see a more unfortunate looking version of Bez, from Happy Mondays. If he mimes the maracas for a celebration - nice one.

Blimey: we can have a sub-thread of songs titled "You Were Right" that reference dead musicians. This Built To Spill one contains lyrics written by deceased artists such as Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison. There are also quotes from still living performers, including Neil Young (at...
