The words "best mate" and "Albion supporter" confirm a total collapse in contemporary morality.   The new Pope need look no further for a place to start.

Ha ha, excellent stuff

I was speaking to my Albion supporting best mate and he was of the opinion that MONderland are truly woeful. His pick for bottom three is Reading, QPR and MONderland. I hope he's right.

Best Mate was a Villa supporter. Just like Tom Hanks.

I don't really understand the horse statues thing.

Don't they all look the same?

EDIT obviously I mean race horses, I understand that dray horses and Shetland ponies look different.

It's PWS' best mate. I think. Or something like that, anyway.

I thought it was a statue of Ruud van Nistelrooy?

Don't mind Sunderland but they've never recovered from those two earth shatteringly inept premier league seasons before Derby came along and broke the record.

There always seems an air of pessimism at SOL that even Villa Park can't match.

The club could have cashed there in with branded cannelloni or somesuch. Typical.

That jockey looks suspiciously like Barry Bannan.

Bannan is too small to be a jockey
