    West Brom players and England

    We’ve been touted as an unpopular club and I do think any England call ups have been almost reluctant. Berahino gets called up and gets no minutes. Johnstone now and surely he could have got some minutes v San Marino? Jeff Astle took an age to be called up. Statham never even given a chance. I know there are other factors involved but If these had been Leeds players or Villa players would things have been different? I think there’s been a stuck record in the Prem (And old division one) for decades.

    Statham’s treatment was a joke.

    That f u c k I n g Toby Jug Kenny Sansom got 80 odd caps and wasn’t fit to lace Derek’s boots.

    Possibly the most Southerly biased pick of my lifetime.

    Statham was a genius, the most exciting and talented English left back of my lifetime.

    Well its pointless if he goes home and doesn't get picked when Pickford is fit. Pope looks quite ropey.

    Yet we are about tenth of all clubs with our players called up for England. Most of them must have been years ago.
