    The Albion Roar

    Since mid 1970's every 3 years, a club representative gives a number 5 shirt to the 32nd person he sees, 8 days after Ascension Sunday. From that day forth they are transformed into brilliant centre back. Sadly the precise date is a little off for centre forwards.

    If I'm very wrong and the playing budget doesn't suddenly spike, over the next 2 accounts, I will be instant and sincere with my apology. But I will also make it my life's mission to have Chris Hughton's babies. :lolol: :sick: I think it's impossible to have any more respect for the man, but if...

    As usual I'm not making my point very well. I may be wrong, but I seem to remember Garcia inherited Poyet's side, plus an increase in budget, and ran with it. (Or let Upson run with it!) Hyypia inherited a side missing key players, from back to front, and a negligible increase in budget. CH...

    Of course, I was being somewhat glib and incredibly unfair on Mr Bloom. Naturally your points on the club finances are considerably more valid than the ramblings of a potless fat bloke. But I notice you don't address the 'minor' increase in playing budget v the previous squad being ripped...

    Now my turn to say all true. But Sami's strike force in his first game of the season was O'Grady and Fenelon. This has already turned into a chicken or egg debate :lol:

    It was the price the club had to pay for trying to 'do the Championship on the cheap'. Garcia's playing budget was £23m Hyypia's playing budget was £26m. In a rising market that's pretty much a deficit. Let alone a team that didn't adequately replace it's mainstay centre back, centre midfield...

    I'm yet to listen (and probably won't) to The Cycling Podcast's recent 1 + hour interview with Sir Dave Brailsford. regarding the recent news on Wiggins. I have now listened to the subsequent episode. There the chaps (3 well respected cycling journo's) were talking of how they were turned upon...

    The new show has just popped up on my I-Tunes feed.

    and with Virgo on the show you can have the added bonus of him telling you how bad you are at running, coupled with how he'd have done it so much better.

    Things I'd already forgotten about this season, #29:- - Bruno playing really well in midfield. Completely passed me by until TLO mentioned it listening to last weeks Roar, last night. (actually this might be worthy of it's own thread).

    It is on my I-tunes feed as normal, I listened earlier. Maybe you need to go back a tech generation and get it straight from the I-tunes source.

    Hopefully we aren't the first club to employ a disabled steward to help with the disabled supports, pretty obvious when you think about it. But I bet we fookin well are. Top notch show, Al.

    Yeah it popped up on my feed when I logged on @ 6am. SS try clicking uninstall then install again. The equivalent of turning it off and on.

    You can't be serious. Yet another :lolol: or :cry: moment.

    It occurred to me listening to Mr Perry, this morning, that I was grinning (a very rare event). He speaks with such knowledge and authority, but with so much ease and simplicity, all the while laced with passion, pride and commitment. We can all do bits of those adjectives, but very rarely are...
