    I told my wife yesterday that I don’t want a headstone etc.

    It’s a load of pointless b o l l o x, just spread my ashes in Watergate Bay in Cornwall and job done.

    Your already sorted! Wearing the latest West Brom shirt and ashes spread on the Hawthorns pitch before it turns into Chinese takeaway!

    We are having pure cremation. No funeral service, no grave, no announcement in the Dingle rag, no pervy vicar telling people what we were like.
    Took away and burnt, ashes returned and scattered.
    I don't fancy lying in a box being eaten by worms and then dug up in a century and a half to make way for a supermarket, and have kids have a game of football with my school.

    I would never be scattered at the Hawthorns, I spent too much time there while I was alive.😂

    We have been sorted for about 30 years! In fact we changed the location of the spreading of the ashes about 4 years ago by putting a letter inside the Will and telling the two children.

    Maybe we are just morbid but I am amazed what a difficult conversation it is for so many people. Encouragingly that so many on here are on the same page though. We must all be morbid so and so’s!! Maybe why we are drawn to the club.
