You have to speculate.......

Good post Prando. I see that even SKY is stating we have interviewed Hughton and are speaking to Bruno Labbadia. This being the case, they'll only be coming with guarantees on expenditure etc, why would they not? We fall for it every time over the years but I sincerely hope this isn't all a smoke screen prior to appointing Appleton. The clubs ambition will be laid out when we appoint the new man. Personally and agreeing with your comments re: our ambition, I'm expecting Appleton. It will be a big lift if they do appoint (say) Labbadia who took a struggling Wolfsberg to 6th place in just over a season as he will be wanting to do it his way. Like many, I'm so fed up and cynical about our disinterested owner I'm expecting little ambition to be shown this coming season but one governed by Jenkins and his cutbacks. Truly hope I'm wrong but it gets you that way with history having repeated itself over the years.

I have no doubt it will be Appleton all the rest is just rubbish

..... to accumulate. This saying is so very true. I just wish that those in charge at the Albion would take this to heart. While I don't want us to go down the same route as let's say Leeds did, we need to be more proactive and expansive in our approach. We seem incapable of making a decision and dither about and end up losing out whether it is regarding a coach, player or whatever because we are not prepared to pay the going rate. Look at the Gayle situation. A player who is a proven goalscorer in the Championship and we aren't prepared to pay the asking price. This, to me, shows a lack of ambition. He'll probably end up at another Championship club and 'do the business' for them. We are at a crossroads and I am genuinely worried for our future. Do we want to go back to the dire days of the nineties? Come on Albion, shake off the shackles and let's show some ambition or we are going to sink into obscurity.

We had our chance when we were 10th in the prem Leicester. I was crying out for us to buy three or four top players to kick on. The rest is history and unforgivable.

The only person then Boingy who kicked on was the bald c unt as at that point - it was no investment and sell at the highest price to some idiot!

Along came a little yellow man with dreams of a Premier Team ........

Our ambition went down in the plane crash that tragically took the life of Tom Silk.

All the likes of c??? peace wanted was what they could take.

Our only hope is lai decides to take a loss and sells us to someone who actually has a plan like the owners at Watford.
