" One Club No Ambition " ?
The one club, one ambition was simply dreadful and as it turned out highly embarrassing

"Keep the Faith" and a photo of Micky Adams looking like he was about the punch you, was all we needed back in the Withdean years........

The Albion slogan or rather "codeword" apparently in 1955 wasn't Premier League Ready . It was "Progress"
Here's the cheery notes from the chairman 60 years ago at the start of 1955/56 via [MENTION=118]Hiney[/MENTION] 's incredible Programmes Archive.

"During the past four or five years the Albion management has done its utmost for the comfort of Supporters. i.e.: all terraces have been concreted, new turnstiles have been built, a half time scoreboard can be seen and also the extension of over 100 per cent of the cheap popular enclosure has been made. coupled with a undisputed perfect playing pitch - the best in the league.
This , I am sure is quite good going and the Albion directors will not be satisfied until a new stand has taken the place of the existing West Stand. The Albion password is progress and surely no one can deny that this has been done. "
So the ambition has gone?
I like Roar on the Albion,

We didn't have big screens and a near on £100 million, 30,000+ capacity stadium then or a top draw, state of the art training facility either. It's progress (good or bad) but blimey, wasn't it what all Albion fans aspired to in those dark, dingy days.
I’m not sure I have a facepalm big enough.
“#together”
Absolute meaningless BOBBINS. Who exactly are they trying to appeal to with this crapola ? Whats the target demographic ? Kids won’t give a toss, and I’m pretty damn sure anyone else who notices will just roll their eyes at it.
The depressing thing is, we’ve probably shelled out a small fortune on a bunch of corporate branding latte-quaffing consultants in ponytails to come up with that pile of meaningless CACK we've got plastered all over our stadium.
