Oliver Richardson damages knee ligaments — 62 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 62 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match19 Apr 2032

West Bromwich Albion refuse to drop out of the race

Position 2, 74 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Squad19 Apr 2032

Yehvann Diouf stands alone

6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

The dugout19 Apr 2032

Dato Bukia: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” West Bromwich Albion have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Gustavo Nunes beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 25. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Market19 Apr 2032

Kaique hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what West Bromwich Albion can pretend not to have heard.

Squad19 Apr 2032

Defences have started doubling up on Gustavo Nunes

15 goals and a season average of 7.38 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Market19 Apr 2032

Only the photograph left for Macklin Freke

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Macklin Freke will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around West Bromwich Albion the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Words at West Bromwich Albion training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Harvey Elliott is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

West Bromwich Albion say no — this time

The offer from Sheffield Wednesday for Ayden Heaven was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Transfer targets25 Aug 2031

Crystal Palace tell West Bromwich Albion: Jørgen Strand Larsen is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Úmaro Baldé puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at West Bromwich Albion, and it is not being withdrawn.

Match23 Aug 2031

West Bromwich Albion cannot stop winning

4 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Market25 Aug 2031

Tommaso Mancioppi has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around West Bromwich Albion they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Transfer targets25 Aug 2031

Tommy Setford is a medical away from West Bromwich Albion

The deal with Manchester United is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad25 Aug 2031

A falling-out at West Bromwich Albion

Daryl Dike and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings25 Aug 2031

Gustavo Nunes was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 22. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad25 Aug 2031

A row about effort at West Bromwich Albion

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Harvey Elliott was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
