If nothing else I'd appreciate some recognition for my attempts to get GM to score a hat-trick/last minute winner* next Saturday.
I won't even put any money on it, making that the surefire bet for the season opener.
*delete as appropriate.
Fair enough maybe I'm being too titsy because I really wasn't expecting GM to feature much this season, let alone start the season opener.
But even so, 'did okay' isn't the most glowing of tributes!
It shouldn't be long now before someone mentions Jesse Lingard's W/C exploits, while failing to mention his lacklustre Albion performances.
I've spent the Summer so excited about the business the club has done.
I've lashed out at the doomongers, and yet here we are 7 days away from the start...
I'm always happy to be wrong, but come on even you know that most selective of all time selective lists, still looks poor.
Nobody in their right mind would want to see a comprehensive list of Albion strikers that covers the last 18 years.

It wrong because I said 'buying' strikers.
Fortunately they only loaned in Brown, Ulloa (if only someone had said that was a terrible move :lol: ) and Chuba.

Anyone would think some fans are masochists.
When you say 'bunch' do you mean better than Hemed and Baldock plus Brown, Ulloa, Locadia & best not forget Chuba Akpom.
Still I'm sure an alarm bell has rung somewhere and I will soon be told the club isn't shitehouse at buying strikers. .
That won't happen with Murray though.
No centre half is scared of Murray outside of the penalty area (dare I say 6 yard box).
He can't get the jump on a high line, without being offside.
He certainly can't beat them when running onto a through ball.
So the centre backs can push up taking the...
This squad can't have it both ways.
It can't pressure the opposition, be less defensive, push the opposition back into their own half.

Play Glenn 'lino wave the flag' Murray.
Don't be and look at the names, something CJ refuses to acknowledge?
Ryan started - instead of who?
Propper started - instead of who?
Groß started - instead of who?
Brown started - instead of who? Baldock hahaha
Suttner - instead of Bong, a player who in turn won his place back with his best...
