I like it, hopefully it'll lead to a televised full house and a few new Albion converts (£1 per ticket is a great idea to encourage parents to bring a nipper with them).

That said, I imagine this thread will soon be full of the, usually, older 'fun/change = tinpot' brigade who will utterly miss the point.

I can see Watford BATTERING us (knowing our luck Kusz, Upson and Lua Lua will all also be out with injuries by then) so the name might be appropriate.

If just a 100 extra parents bring thier kids to the game and the kids enjoy it then the odds are they will want to come again , its a pity we wont have any strikers to frighten Watfords defence but its better the club trying these new ideas rather than simply hoping for big crowds and doing nothing .

Rather appropriate after last season's Horror Show against Watford. Carry On Screaming folks...

Hopefully El Abd is involved in some way, so that his Addams Family chant can ring around the ground

As people seemed to interpret Spanish day as Mexican day, does that mean people are going to come in Christmas related attire to this?

Anyway, add me to the list of boring people who think it's embarrassing

We're supposed to be a football club.

I'm still not getting it.

Younger fans (who this is aimed at) will, by and large, not appreciate the quality of football on display (thankfully) but they will remember having fun and the feeling of being part of a big crowd, two things that this will hopefully bring together.

Even if it falls flat on it's arse as an 'event' it should still bring in some new fans, which is never a bad thing.

Moshe Jnr would LOVE this - if he'd actually WATCH THE FLIPPIN' FOOTBALL for more than 10 seconds then he might have a chance of going...
