Robert Plant was born a stone throw from the Hawthorns, but follows Wolves...I've never really understood that one.
The best thing to come out of Birmingham was Stevie Winwood. 18 here, not even a young boy never mind an adult with a voice like that.
He was brought up in Hayley Green, which is 8 miles from West Brom, but also only 12 miles from Wolves and his dad was a Wolves fan.
I imagine the likes are pretty blurred round there, like anywhere with multiple clubs in the same area/city
How many players has Acun's ownership seen brought in and then dudded? It's a new strategy bringing in a bulk of highly rated young players like Covil, Vaughan, Sandat etc. in the hopes we can develop them either for our first team or to get a good fee for. You think we're going to just release someone like Vaughan on the expiry of his contract after what he's shown?
that's what it is an opinion but we'll see have you got an opinion about any of them other than Vaughan?
My opinion is that we've brought in a lot of young players with the intention of getting fees for them if they turn out to be hits. You only need 1-2 of that group to be a hit to justify the outlay on all of them and more. You asked why we bothered bringing them in.
I didnt ask So you dont think any appear to be good enough but the sheer quantity should produce some results?
