Scot mostly found in the West Midlands. Social democracy. Probably the only person to hold a season ticket for both Aberdeen and West Brom.
I don't agree with that in the workplace.

That is the first time #WBA have registered consecutive home Championship defeats since October 2022.
I think it is the heaviest Championship defeat since the Championship became the Championship (2004), although my research on that is about as slipshod as tonight's performance.

The players will - rightly - take criticism. This has been truly dreadful. But a lot of them are crying out for help and basically getting none of it.
I thought some of the assessments of Friday's performance were generous, but this has been a dire way for Ramsay to make a first impression. #WBA

Dire start from #WBA. Every inch as bad as Swansea first half under Mason. But, as much as individuals look poor, the structure is not helping them at all. Bielik and Styles need another body with them to progress the ball, as do the CBs - being swarmed by Norwich press and look totally overwhelmed.

On the Morocco penalty: If the referee gives that on-field, fine. It would be soft, but it wouldn't be overturned. But it should never be enough for VAR intervention having not been given on-field.

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

Just spotted that the Caledonian Sleeper has added a stop in Birmingham.
I suspect it's something I will end up doing once to/from Aberdeen and then decide to never do it again, but I suppose it's cool to have another option.
International instead of New Street is a bit of a pain, mind.

What the hell has happened to Kyogo? He just looks utterly lost whenever I watch Blues. Probably a good thing for Celtic that he's not going back there.

Viper on Gladiators has a rubbish gimmick, and he also seems to be useless at a lot of the Events. A total loser!

Saying that about 'identity', the real challenge for the next four games is putting points on the board: Norwich (H), Derby (A), Pompey (A), Stoke (H). Far from easy, but a decent run of results can buy some breathing space and give Ramsay more scope to experiment with things later in the season.

Weird one. Clearer identity in first half, but that approach means conceding first is going to require a quite fundamental shift. Really messy on the ball. Didn't lay a glove until 2-1. Some positive in-game changes, but also thought dial moved too far to begin with. Winning goal far too easy. #WBA

Well, #WBA going to have to come out and play now. Increasingly felt like Boro were chaining attacks and we couldn't get anything going on the turnover.
It's certainly a bold way to approach your home games, even against the better sides in the league. An early test of Ramsay's adaptability.
