Oh dear Graeme Smith. The poor sod hasn’t exactly made the best of starts to his career at the Albion, conceding 24 goals in 632 minutes, or 8 appearances. While he’s not being helped by the shambles of a defence infront of him, there is obviously a deeper problem. A bold statement it may be, [...]

Funny what a difference a couple of weeks makes. Not long ago we were slating Glenn Murray for seemingly not wanting to be here, for being constantly injured and not clapping the away support at Brentford.

…bugger. Personally, the fact that he’s said no means I’m now a little pissed off that Slade has been sacked. I naively assumed Slade getting the chop meant his replacement was almost a certainty. But evidently not. If Coppell says no, I can only assume Curbishley will do the same. And that leaves that far [...]

Following the news on Sunday afternoon about the sacking of Russell Slade, we hastily arranged to do an Albion Moan-In podcast that very same evening. The show of course wrote itself, everyone seems to have an opinion when a manager has been sacked. For this show we asked Ian Hart to join us during the [...]
