Baby
P shows off his new scarf
|
With
just six minutes until the train, the decision
to take down a "quick pint" proved an
inevitably stupid one as we arrive on the
platform to see our train to Walsall leaving. It
became even more stupid when it was revealed
that Piers' watch, the basis of the decision,
was infact two minutes slow

finally board another train, with Baby Potts
wanting to be the poster child for foster

Walsall
high street was well prepared for McCarthy's
arrival with a shop named after him
|
|
|
|
|
It
was even better prepared than first realised as
the presence of a police van indicated
|
Our
choice of pub in Walsall pre-game was The Black
Country Arms, a fine name given the politically
correct world in which we live in
|

Mendoza
is not impressed with his snack purchase, which

were anything but curly!
|

|
Wetherspoons
Man arrives on the scene
|
This
local was obviously concerned for his own safety
with the use of a hi-vis jacket in broad
daylight
|

and Baby Pott's enjoy a pint

The
magic of Baby Potts works again, as he looks to
continue his fine record of seeing only one
defeat
|
This
man begins performing maintenance on the goal in
the middle of the game
|
|
|
|
|
Did
Michel Kuipers towell harbour any clues to the
wear abouts of Madeline McCann? You'd have to
think it unlikely
|
Ex-Albion
player Matt Richards new haircut was soon
drawing comparisons to Jade Goody
|
|

|

|
|
Oaf
gives Baby Pott's a good luck kiss as the Albion
go into half time with a 2-1 advantage

Walsall
FC know how to offer fans a January bargain
|
|

|
|

Bizarrely,
the ketchup they offered however contained egg

waiting to happen though as he happily tucks
into a lubricated penis
|

Witham
holds Baby Pott's for the second half

Clayton
Ince, as is always the case, recieved an
excellent reception from the Albion faithful of
cheers everytime he touched the ball and mass
hysteria as he made a save, despite the fact he
has absolutely no connection to the club
|
|
|
|
Martin
O'Neil was in the stand checking on the Albion
ahead of next weeks game. Don't think he would
have been too concerned

|
|
This
pub had a wonderful collection of snuff
available for patrons to buy
|
McCarthy
naturally decided to try his hand at it
|
|
|
|
McCarthy
snorts his snuff to great delight
|
Being
responsible comes naturally to the Crocs, so it
was an obvious decision to allow Baby Pott's to
partake in some snuff also
