Where do you watch home games from?
The mighty Smethwick End

How long have you been an Albion fan?
Since I was about 5

What was your first Albion match?
Against Villa when Robbo scored in injury time

What is your earliest memory of being a Baggie?
Villa away when Robbo got the equaliser. I just remember going mental and going home happy.

What is your favourite Albion memory?
Getting promotion. Can't describe how happy I was.

What is your worst Albion memory?
Getting relegated and losing to Wolves.

What was the best goal you have seen at The Hawthorns?
Probably Ellington's against Cardiff. He won an award for it and it was a well deserved award.

What is your most memorable match?
Wolves at home in the Play-Offs. Never witnessed an atmosphere like that before, and I was so happy!

Do you have any funny stories or classic moments you remember being an Albion fan?
One home game in the 06/07 season, some cheerleaders were dancing before the game. A rather big boned man who was with them fell flat on his arse and couldn’t get back up. It was hilarious!

Do you have any pre match superstitions?
Not really. I usually get a McDonalds though if that counts.

Who is your favourite current Albion player and why?
Koren. Such a nice guy and gives 100% every time.

Who is your all-time favourite Albion player and why?
Bobby Taylor, need I say more?

Who is your all-time worst Albion player and why?
Curtis Davies. He really has annoyed some fans so I hope he stays at Villa.

Do you prefer home or away games and why?
I like home games because I love going to The Hawthorns, but away games are better for atmosphere and can be a right laugh sometimes.

Who is your favourite opponent?
Wolves, when we win.

What is your favourite away ground?
Wembley was impressive but I like any ground with terracing as well.

What is your favourite Albion chant?
'We all follow the Albion', 'Boing Boing' and 'Proud to be a Baggie'.

Why are you proud to be a Baggie?
Because there is nothing better than watching and supporting your team. I feel part of West Brom. Its also my local team so I’m proud to be part of it.

What is your all time Albion XI?
Last season’s squad, they were the best ability wise but didn’t work as a team. Some of our players were brilliant individual players though.
