    Albion's fiancial blackhole

    Just an idea ,but couldn't there be an organised way of putting some money into the club .
    IE if the fans in the Brummie,East , West and Smethwick put say a £10 to sponsor the stand they sit in.
    This would be agreeable with FFP .
    Say it brought in £250k, but could pay the wages of the groundstaff or pay the fuel bill for heating the pitch in the winter .
    This costs £10k a day .

    I don’t think it works that way Lloyd.

    If only it were that simple.

    It could pay for Al’s fuel costs, for all the players he wants to drive to other clubs. 😉

    Al' becoming the club's official chauffeur for our current player relocation programme has a certain appeal, destiny awaits 😎.
