There website says it was booking history only

So those Albion fans who gave/sold their tickets to glory hunting bellends are going to get banned from The Hawthorns for life, I'd imagine.

Jammy ******.

Baggies fans staying behind to see the unique occasion of a league title being won at the Yawnthorns.

Understandable.  Last time they saw a trophy there were only 3 TV channels.

Fourth 0-1 defeat on the bounce for the yam yams What a boring fucking manager Pulis is

For all the he's done an unbelievable job there this season spiel they could well end the season on 45 points as they finish with two away games at Man. City and Swansea which could easily be two defeats.

Lambert in his first season here got 41 points and that was generally considered a disastrous season for us.

I wouldn't be too scared when we finally manage to get back in the prem. Standards must be slipping if you can comfortably be 8th with just 45 points. Didn't we finish 11th one season under MON with about 50 points?

It's a bit of a disjointed league. I can't remember there being a season before where 7th could be the best part of 20 points ahead of 8th by the end of the season.

Albrighton with the cross and Leicester pull it back to 2-1.

Anytime I have seen Leicester this season (admittedly not often) he has been heavily involved.

Sure I seen him getting to the byline and getting crosses in with his left foot too against Atletico away.

Still, at least getting him off the wage bill enabled us to bring in proven quality such as Joe Cole and Kieran Richardson.

Top seven. There are 16 points between Everton in seventh and West Brom in eighth.

Chelsea are a good hard working team, with a great manager, very different to the overrated one.  And the crumb of comfort for me this year is the number of people (spurs fans) telling me this is the best that Spurs have played since the sixties....and they will win as much as we do this season.

Boro fans chanting for Guzan to be sent off after he conceded a penalty against Southampton.
