    [Albion] New fan zone - "The Terrace" [Opening 29/03/25 currently]

    Went in after the WHUFC after lower east closed. I guess it's my age , but loud crap music, confusion over how to get served in a building which wouldn't look out of place in a cheap seaside town . I won't be rushing back. Also WHUFC fan wanted to start a fight with someone.

    [Football] Yasin Ayari

    Really don't understand why people miss his contribution, usually quite understated but does a lot of tidying up and wants to get the ball forward quickly. IMO probably our 2nd best midfielder. He is a little bit undersized but that gives him great mobility. Up until Saturday his finishing has...

    [Albion] Fab's pre-West Ham presser

    I think i would start 4 3 3 Wieffer, Veltman, Dunk, Estupian Hinshelwood, Baleba, Ayari O'Riley, Welbeck, Mitoma Possibly Minteh for O'Riley as Minteh offers better defensive capabilities but O'Riley looks better further forward at the moment. But I know 4 3 3 is so ancient...

    [Football] Tactical Nerd Alert - Is building from the back dead?

    We might not have fallen to pieces but we were a different team for Everton than we were in previous 3 games it should have been a game where players were on top form mentally, maybe over confidence is the problem, the handball was a good example of too much black arts.

    [Albion] Still 2,000 season tickets to be sold for next season

    Home form has been appalling , if we were 12-13th but winning 60-70 of our home games we probably would be in a better place regards season tickets. Ironically looks to me , based on churn of new faces, that there is increased demand for away games.

    [Football] Tactical Nerd Alert - Is building from the back dead?

    Sure lack of confidence is not good and that is what we are seeing now as we string together poor results but doesn't explain going to pieces in certain games like Everton& Palace at home especially as the Everton defeat came after a week of wins...

    [Albion] Do You Struggle With Morality as a Football Fan?

    I think for most fans its nothing to do with entitlement its frustration , knowing just a few bad results are keeping us out of CL positions and knowing that this year is a freak year when two of the top 6 are nowhere to be seen and so the race is was more open and that might not be the same...

    [Misc] Pope Francis - RIP

    Some strange and antiquated views expressed by some. I am a lapsed catholic i.e. i don't go to church but it taught me some 'standards' about how to behave which I adhere to. Yes not all the preachers practised what they preached but that is because they are human nor am I condoning some...

    [Football] Tactical Nerd Alert - Is building from the back dead?

    agreed but they then do something with it. Liverpool are the best team in England and they are not afraid of route one at times, or just maybe some quick audacious passes to get up field quickly but it's interleaved into their build at the back not instead off.

    [Football] Tactical Nerd Alert - Is building from the back dead?

    Not a fan of over coached systemised football, players checking with the free kick coach or the corner coach before playing the ball . Or indeed players just playing the system continually when its not working and then waiting for the 'its not working coach' to change the formation or tactics...

    [Albion] How would you describe the football we play under Hurzeler in less than 5 words?

    True but it works for Liverpool (Salah) and worked for Man City (Haaland)

    [Albion] 60's, 70's Albion match programmes available free

    I wonder if the club is interested or whether it has copies already.

    [Albion] Home game v Liverpool date change

    As was said earlier by joining the PL we sold the fans out. I suspect this type of televising all the games and subsequent moving around will only increase.

    [Albion] Premier League 16/04/25

    Totally agree much that it annoys me to say it Villa have such a good team. I would also prefer a draw in the Newcastle v Palace game

    [Albion] Matt O Riley [26/08/24 - sings on a 5-year deal]

    he has never looked like a midfield player to me , especially as we only play in the centre both have to pull their weight.

    [Albion] Enciso is such a ray of sunshine.... not

    Plenty of people querying his contribution, think they must be watching different games to me.
