Jim Beglin:
"Arsenal are better footballers than West Brom"


Stunning insight.

was it Boxing day about 3 years ago when it really snowed hard and the coaches had a job getting away from the ground at WBA? I've lost track of time, it was probably a few years before that

Think it was about 6/7 years ago.

Thought it was longer than that. Could barely see the other end of the ground.

Ha ha it's great isn't it? There was an excerpt from an interview with the late Tommy Docherty from years ago. When asked what made a good football manager he replied, " Good players." That's never changed, Pep says the same today.

Moyes a dinosaur? Clueless.

So you are saying Moyes is a dinosaur AND clueless?"-)

One of those "bore your mates down the pub" stats from Richard Keys just now. Apparently, Tierney's goal is the first goal scored on the road, by a Scotsman, in the PL, for Arsenal.



No need to thank me, just throw money.

I assume this is 3D level chess stuff from Allardyce given his apparent master plan

 

[bluemoon32]

only magic he needs to do is keep that shite squad up. He will.

Not a chance

 

[lancs blue]

Yes, 14/15 season.

The conditions reminded me of my first visit to West Brom, an FA Cup replay in '77, that was played in a snowstorm.

 

[flook]

clever play by holding there, penalty looked a likely outcome

Another one, Middlesbrough many years ago, couldn't see a thing from behind the goal. Kept cheering as though we had scored when City were attacking the end we couldn't see. I'm pretty sure it eventually got abandoned.

Met Tommy Doc a couple of times, once at the Richfield Club in town after a boxing event promoted by Jack Trickett, (Quality Street Gamg all in attendance) one of his lines about the then rag player;

"If Peter Davenport had 5 shots at John Lennon he'd still be alive today"

A night match in the league Cup? About 1991 if so it wasn't abandoned but we did loose

 

[flook]

comical

West Brom deserve relegation for sacking Bilic and appointing BFS.

Ha ha brilliant.

Stoke are playing Bournemouth, 40 miles away. The pitch totally clear of snow. Guess that's down to the height of West Brom's ground (highest in the country, isn't it?).

Think it just pips Oldham's as the highest.

It was a night match, definitely, the fog came rolling in and we couldn't see a thing. I stand corrected, cheers.

How did we fail to beat these FFS?
