    Crowds To Be Allowed?

    If the Albion are in tier 2 then 4,000 will be allowed in. But they can't sing, shout or boo and jeer when the teams take the knee.

    There should be a mass turning of backs to this nonsense!

    Got that wrong didn't I. Tier one is 4,000. Tier two, which I suspect Birmingham/Sandwell/WBA will fall into will only be 2,000. Tier 3 cannot have any crowds at all. We will know Thursday.

    4,000 noisy supporters could still drown out the library known as the Holte End!

    Maybe we should do our own version of the BLM protest with the 2000 allowed to attend all clutching their throats like they’re about to die from Covid!

    Dowling won't want the expense of all the stands open - extra stewards - bogs to clean and extra catering. I can hear the muppet barking now - put the 4,000 f uckers in the East Stand which is right away from me and Ken ( nick name for Ying Yang Chew ).

    Pretty certain it’ll be in tier 3

    Interesting thing about the Albion and I guess a few old clubs built around the old industries is how much of the support lives in the postcode the ground sits in. I recon the Albion would be pretty low now the demographic is totally different from my dads day when he used to cycle, he is now 80 and lives in Stourport, I moved away for work 30 years ago and don’t know anyone really that still lives within a stone throw of the ground..

    Indeed, just think how it affects Manchester United ‘supporters’, O T could well be in a tier 3 zone but none of their lot live there! Oh hang on a minute, they’re nearly all from London, also tier 3, LOL.

    I assuming that the West Midlands has been put in tier 3 which means no spectators. I am spitting feathers down here in Folkestone because although our rate is well below the national average, we have been put in tier 3 because prisons on the Isle of Sheppey which is 50 miles away and on an island have a very high rate. How can this be feckin right!
