This truly is a disgrace. First, Makama did the same thing last season & no action was taken. Second, the direction of the ball is changed by the keeper right in front of him, it’s not a deliberate action. The inconsistency is staggering & the logic non-existent! #wba

Aune Heggebø will serve a two-match suspension after an appeal against a charge of misconduct was unsuccessful. We remain steadfast in our support of Aune, whose character and integrity have been evident throughout his time at The Hawthorns.

EXCLUSIVE: Fifa's president Gianni Infantino is planning to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors under a scheme that could potentially earn him tens of millions of pounds. Investor discussions held with figures close to the Trump administration, say sources. thetimes.com/sport/football…

Kane and Jude carried us… In the semi NEITHER of them touched the ball inside Argentinas penalty area…. Not ONE touch… They both got absolutely ZERO service… You can’t expect them to bail us out if they don’t get the ball so can’t then criticise them for not saving us..

West Bromwich Albion Football Club has released the below statement following publication of an EFL Club Financial Review Panel (CFRP) decision. 👇

@RobDorsettSky @JPercyTelegraph @GoldbergRadio @BuzagloToBalis @AliJones9 Hang on - the club had to borrow money BECAUSE Lai had literally stolen (I use that term without hesitation) money from the club with the Wisdom Smart “loan” that was made unlawfully by his stooge (then sole director of the club), Ke Xu, in blatant breach of his fiduciary duty to only act in the best interests of the company (being the football club) which that “loan” made to Wisdom Smart very clearly was not! I sent several emails to Ke Xu about this (I have copies), pointing out his blatant breach of fiduciary duty and demanding to know as a shareholder what he was doing to enforce repayment from Wisdom Smart. Every email was totally ignored. I also sent emails about it to the club’s auditors, Azets (I still have copies) who were obviously very interested. Crucially I sent an email to Rick Parry (Chairman) and Trevor Birch (Chief Executive Officer) of the EFL on 20th January 2023 about Lai’s “loan”, which led to two video calls with their “very interested” colleagues Mark Rowan (Chief Communications Officer) and Nick Craig (Chief Operating Officer) in May 2023 about all the shenanigans. I made them aware of facts regarding the Chinese ultimate beneficial ownership of the club which neither they nor the Premier League (who originally approved Lai as “fit and proper”) knew nothing about. Because of those illegal acts by Xu, as Lai’s puppet, money unlawfully disappeared from the club, leaving it days away from going into administration. If the club may potentially now suffer a points deduction some 3 years later directly because of the club having no option but to pay interest on expensive MSD loans taken out by Lai to literally keep the club in existence because he was unable to repay his own unlawful Wisdom Smart “loan”, then this would be a disgraceful gross injustice by the EFL and must be fully exposed and challenged. No sane person would deem that to a breach worthy of a points deduction. The EFL was made fully aware of the situation regarding that Wisdom Smart loan and if they cannot now locate their emails to refer to, I do still have them all. The EFL has had an absolute stinker here on multiple fronts (as did the Premier League before them) and they need to recognise that and immediately dismiss any charge against the club.

#wbafc: key area of dispute between Albion and EFL is over interest payments on loans taken out by Lai. If those £5m payments are included in PSR calculations, they are in breach. Club claims they shouldn’t be. Full explanation here. skysports.com/share/13532064

"So it's alright to change the terms of their loan unilaterally without consultation without pre-warning?" @vicderbyshire challenges Schools Minister Georgia Gould over the government's approach to student loan repayments. #Newsnight

@WBAReport No, the guy is a workhorse and would be a demon with play closer to him. Drop IP (not a 10) either into cm alongside AM & get him on the ball from deep more, or to the bench and keep OD for solidity, and play JM alongside or just in behind Heggebo. Make defenders lives difficult!

@sjpatel212 Also do think Diakite has been v unlucky in that he’s not really had any time on the pitch to get match sharp before starting in our toughest game of the season so far as well

@sjpatel212 Fair, think molumby is more rounded but not as effective in duels, seen nothing of Collyer to suggest he’s any good (been rash in the challenge and v average otb in each game he’s played) and Bielik couldn’t start for blues in L1. Game of opinions tho tbf!

@ChapmanJ92 Thought Collyer was poor again personally, passes often behind his man slowing attacks, couple of sloppy challenges and rarely moved the ball forward, struggle to really see what he offers that any of our other options don’t

Officials moan all the time about players throwing themselves to the floor easily - then give decisions when the player stays on his feet. Appalling decision which the officials have bottled! #wba

This version of Owen Farrell should not be getting a Lions call up - no form in 24/25 + injury issues - Plenty of options at 10/12 - no international rugby since 2023 - not a like for like swap with Daly (FB covered may be needed) How can Andy Farrell justify this?

‘I realise it can make some media outlets nervous, but what we’re seeing here is genocide.’ James Smith, an emergency doctor who has worked in Gaza, says newborn babies dying of starvation is a ‘deliberate policy’ by Israel.

Israel is a rogue state & a threat to world peace. It is an apartheid state carrying out a genocide in Gaza. Instead of supporting this 'ally', the British Government should announce full sanctions & end all trade.
