At the end of my tether
Last game of the season, please make it go out with a bang by getting 3 points today . We want the top ten finish that is clearly within our ability. Brighton have a good record against West Ham , we sneaked a draw up there but let’s go one better today. Should be a lively game, especially if they bring Zouma the cat-kicker.....

Always Albion! :albion2:

Is it permissable to have an earpiece in to listen to the relegation scrap?
Also, need a single point to secure our rightful position above Palace and earn me my bet against my Palace mate, for the first time.

I'll watch the game obviously but have to admit I'm slightly more interested in the top/bottom and might throw goat eyes in those directions.

Far from a dead rubber this one. Albion in with a shout of finishing 8th, Hammers in with a shout of finishing 6th. Should be a cracker! :clap:

Add my thanks to [MENTION=15297]Dick Head[/MENTION] for the sterling job all season :clap:

Just seen someone in the stripes this morning. Nothing unusual in that on matchday but I am nearly 1400 miles away. Missing the last game of the season for the first time in years but will just have to console myself watching a dodgy stream whilst laying in the sun with a cold beer. Give the boys a wave from me :bigwave:

Another thank you, can't imagine a Game Day without a Dick Head Introduction. :p

As a matter of interest - why all the 4PM starts, what was wrong with traditional 3PM kick-offs?
