'Yes we all know that Lerner wants to sell but can't.'

Anything can be sold its just a question of agreeing a price.

You really think selling a football club is that simple?

As for Pulis, no.

We don't have the players to play the Pulis way. We have half a Lambert team and half a Sherwood team... with a pinch of McLeish to add spice.

NO. The more awful we get the better managers Pulis and Big Sam become.

Bringing Pulis in only works if he would agree to a very short term fire fighting type of deal. If we were sat in 16th spot and leaking goals, he'd come in teach us how to park the bus, get enough draws to stay up. However the subsequent years we'd become what Albion are now or Stoke were. Miserable, eye bleeding kick, pull, tug, hoof it to big blokes football that you'd not want to pay to go and see. So I'll pass.

We, myself included were all laughing at our neighbours when they got TP. But, who honestly, would take him now?

I would, in a heartbeat, They played some good stuff at our place at the start of the season, looked great on Sky against Palace and last night they really gave Leicester a good go.

I think that when he has the right players, he could do a terrific job anywhere.

I like Garde but his record is horse & it's not like he's only had a few games to save us.

We know what you are. The praising of Albion's quality of football gave it away. Subtle as a house brick.

He could sell it to Carsen Yeungs less scrupulous brother* for a nice haircut, but we'd be even deeper in the shit than we are right now.

* I've no idea if Carsen Yeung has a brother.

I thought results were everything and to be honest, they still are. But having watched the Albion the other week when we played there, I have never seen such an appalling excuse for a side.

A side that cost more than ours in both fees and wages, embarrassingly and they were awful. Diabolical.

I'd prefer to be in the Premier League, but I'm not sure I could stomach his brand of football. I am meant to enjoy it after all.

Especially when you are trying to sell what you can describe as a smashed antique vase for about three times more money than when you bought it intact.

MadKev must drink pints of Dettol if he thinks Albion look great or entertaining.
