JAMIE BRAIDWOOD IT’S been eight years since Tony Pulis and his merry band of rugby players and ex-javelin throwers arrived in the Premier League. Since then, the Welshman, complete with tracksuit, baseball cap and gleaming trainers, has become an established Premier...
HERE we are the other side of Manchester United. Slightly confused by events, but unbowed, unbeaten. Normal life can begin again. West Brom at home on a Saturday at tea time is normal life. In a sense, these are my favourite type of games. In a sense they are also the...
LIVERPOOL manager Jürgen Klopp has insisted that his side must show West Brom respect, as they showed how they can hurt teams the last time they met. In last year’s fixture at Anfield the sides drew 2-2 thanks to an equaliser deep into injury time from Divock Origi....
