Baggies do us a favour

The Baggies did us a favour by drawing 1-1 against Stoke last night and we remain 2nd. It will be a tough encounter against Barnsley on Saturday, but I am confident. Remember this is not the same as a Premiership team that is 4th. I was struck at the Coventry match how big the gap was in standard compared with a Premiership game.

Meanwhile, we can offer you a preview of Peter Varney's remarks on Llanera in the programme: 'You may have read in the newspapers that our sponors, Llanera, have gone bankrupt. Naturally we are disappointed that such a fruitful partnership has ended in this way and we extend our best wishes to our friends at Llanera as they enter insolvency. I appreciate that some Charlton supporters have bought apartments which have not been completed or even started, but in a sense this is not so different from buying Cory Gibbs and finding out that he cannot play.'

'The board is already in informal discussions with a number of new potential sponsors and we hope to make an announcement before long. One avenue we are exploring is getting a Welsh sponsor so that one could simply post a patch after "Llan" as in 'Llandrindod Wells Hotel'. This would enable us to make the best possible use of our existing stock. Meanwhile, wear your shirt with pride and enjoy the game.'

It took me until the 2nd paragraph until I realised that was a joke.
