I'd rather Albion be in the top division, just for amusement purposes.

Swap them with Stoke.

Sod that! After all that "we know what we are" bollocks it will be far funnier for them to actually go back to what they've always been.

I don't really care who goes down as long as it is not us. I think it will be Cardiff, Fulham and Sunderland.

Albion are just one point better off than we were at the same stage last year. Can't see them managing a run like we conjured up.
Mind you, Stoke had 33 points, Norwich 32 and Sunderland 30 with 10 to go and all had their moments of panic before the end of the season. This all points to more ups and downs yet but we are very unlikely to drop as reflected in the latest relegation odds.

I was saying from around April last year that Albion would go this season. I will piss myself loffing if it actually happens.
I was with my Albion mate at the Soho road shed when Wigan beat them 3-2 and I told him then that they  will go down next season.

I think I was saying it too, and would love to be right.


Mind, with games in hand, we could still only be 4 clear if the sides below win.

It should be nice to have Derby, Leciester & Forest coming up for some closer away days.

Yes, the time when they would lose to any of our rivals in a desperate bid to put us down

Yep, would be great.  Even better if it was one of the last minute of the last game scenarios.

I'd love the Ollbeyun to drop. Horrible, horrible bastards.

If the Stripeys do go down we can claim to have relegated them. Their season started to fall apart when Lambert sent on those three subs.

And twice they were 2-0 up. They would need constant reminding of that when they go.

The game there was the one. They were convinced they were going to batter us, show us that they am wot they am and usher in an era oif supremacy.

The WM phone-in on the event of Albion being relegated would be a classic.  I'm sure they would be trying their best to find some kind of moral victory (the old "prefer it in the Championship anyway" line would undoubtedly be trotted out).  Of course it would all be Villa fan Andre Marriner's fault, Franksy!!

They'd go down, we'd stay up, but WM would still laud them for going down so stylishly, whereas we'd stayed up by the skin of our teeth (even if we were 10th)
