Bait.
Anyway, it's not.
That would be if I tweeted a link to this thread along with the line "Albion give fans hidden message about star player's imminent departure" and I'm not going to do that. At least not now. Those sort of tweets are far more effective between 8 and 9pm.
The adult in question was my mother-in-law. I also got an Albion bottle opener shaped like a bottle top and that is magnetic so it handily sticks to the fridge. And an Albion mug. And lots more.
Is this OK?
Perusing the Albion 2017 calendar I received at Christmas I noted that Dale Stephens is February's featured player. I was immediately comforted by this until I noticed the secondary player for February was Elvis Manu.
Is it a sign?
Other than that, there aren't too many questionable placements...
