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.
