    [Albion] The right time for major investment in the team?

    On argument that TB should continue to do what he's been doing for ages , and that the club is in good hands we can definitely agree !

    [Albion] The right time for major investment in the team?

    You’ve outlined the club needs “major”investment in the title of the thread- you’ve suggested doubling the salary of key players and that this close season is the right time to do this- with all the knock on effects that would entail. The club - Ie: Bloom - clearly says - in a statement from...

    [Albion] The right time for major investment in the team?

    [Albion] The right time for major investment in the team?

    Now is the time for what exactly ? Sounds like a club owner who has already invested £427m , pays its squad an average of £50K a week, has a world beating academy, CEO, stadium, one of the best young coaches in football and some of the most sought after young players in Europe and has just...

    [Albion] The right time for major investment in the team?

    Bit taken aback for calls for “major investment” needed in the Albion when we are owned by someone who has so far invested £427m in the club…and continues to “invest” even further every single season.
