    Not to mention the token to 'donate' to a needy cause. (I assume all branches have this and not just Willerby?)

    They weren't a Premier League basket case, they actually did quite well considering they spent no money, it was after they were relegated that everything there turned to ****.

    That's true, they started well, but fell away like a lot of clubs towards the end of the season.

    It seems everyones at it...

    BREAKING NEWS

    West Brom have announced that chairman Jeremy Peace has agreed to sell the club to a Chinese investment group.

    The group is headed by Guochuan Lai, who is the controlling shareholder in Yunyi Guokai (Shanghai) Sports Development Limited.

    Lai has told the club website: "I am excited and privileged to have the chance to become the new owner of this great club. My immediate priorities will be to maintain the club’s stable structure, respecting its well-run nature and its heritage. I have no intention of changing the club’s ethos."

    Let's hope any new owner we get in the future is the opposite of Lai and the first thing they do is change the 'club's ethos' !

    That statement from their new owner is the exact opposite of what our owners are currently doing!!
