[Football] Albion Rrahmani, Kosovo striker

[hans kraay fan club]

Not actually a rumour this one (well, unless I've just started one). At least we wouldn't be stuck for a chant for him.

24 year old, 6'2" Sparta Prague striker.

I noticed his name when he scored two for Kosovo on Saturday. He followed that up with a hat-trick last night.

(we'll ignore that the opposition were Armenia and Comoros, or that he'd scored 1 goal in his previous 13 internationals )

You just know that chant would be 'Rrahmani' to the tune of Tequila.

I have no faith in our ability to get a really good, obvious chant going all the while Baleba is here and we don't do that song.

New one for the list of nationalities I think

I'm still incredibly bitter that we never signed Marc Albrighton.

Tom Brighton was the always the one that I wanted

I dare say there are very few Kosovan players in the entire Football League, let alone just at the Albion.

In fact l'd be tempted to put my mortgage on it, (if l still had one).

Yep me too. Scottish striker still playing at 41!

Not sure about now but Shaqiri, Xhaka and Behrami are all Kosovan

Edit: And Muric, the Burnley and Ipswich goalkeeper

Ahhhhh, that's me rendered homeless then.

Send me the keys to your gaff

Send me the keys to your gaff

Are you the bailiff?

And ex Norwich player Milot Rashica

Did Alan Sunderland ever play for Sunderland?

Tom Brighton was the always the one that I wanted

We nearly signed him at one point

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

We did indeed, whilst he was at Clyde l think.

In a front three with Ki-Jana Hoever and Albion Rrahmani?

 

[Yes Chef]

Did Alan Sunderland ever play for Sunderland?

Not sure, but I think Stefan Kuntz played for Palace

 

[Insel affe]

Yep me too. Scottish striker still playing at 41!

Pretty sure that is an oxymoron

Albion Rrahmani is here to stay
Albion Rrahmani, we're on our way
And I'd rather be nowhere else than here, today...

There must be some significance to the name "Albion" for the Kosovan people. Back in October 2014 the Finnish club Turun Palloseura reported on their website that 15-year-old Albion Ademi was trialing with us - he had been born in Kosovo before moving to Finland as a baby with his family due to the Kosovo War.
