OK, you're right. Enthusiasm quelled.
Am I allowed to have a laugh singing lots of brilliant songs about him? Or is that a bit stupid because he isn't there?
No. The moment will have passed. Wednesday is the night to celebrate his achievement with fellow Albion fans. Home fans can always do it again if they/we want to when he's back.
(Got mentioned in Mojo poll thread but deserves its own thread with Alexis in the title...)
Get your balloons and streamers sorted for Wednesday night if you haven't already. Or a bog roll and a couple of pockets full of ripped up newspaper (free at the station) to luzz if you're old school...
