Debuts from Mr & Mrs Locky aka Marcus and Yvonne, from bar billiards whiz Nigel and from Paul aka Dover in the pub pre match, followed by a resounding opening day win for the team vs The Hatters and breaking news on Albion’s British record-breaking transfer sale of a certain Ecuadorian, a-ha!

Stand or fall!   UTA! Chelsea: Albion’s cash cows since 2022 👍😂

Pete and Russ are joined in Part 1 by the lesser spotted Andy Knott to give us his thoughts on the season just gone and the one to come, talking Saudi Arabia, RDZ, transfers and a controversial choice for goal of the season!

In Part 2 we were delighted to welcome Luton Town podcaster Dave Gregory from Oh When The Town onto the pod telling us his Hatters back story, the amazing story of Luton’s fall and rise, how he’s still in the clouds following his side’s promotion and what his expectations are for the coming season - including Saturday’s big game at The Amex.

Stand or fall!   UTA! Let your voices ring, my boys!

Russ welcomed back to the pod our old friend Amir and new friend Paul Dorsey (from Stateside Seagulls) for them to tell us all about Albion’s successful maiden summer tour across The Pond.

We talk about the games, the new signings, the organisation and socials behind the scenes and about Glenn Murray look-a-likes…wink, wink!

Stand or fall!   UTA! The Rocky steps! Whoop whoop!

The BRP were delighted to welcome onto the show Albion’s stadium announcer and MyAlbionTV presenter, Richard (not Richie!) Reynolds to talk us through his backstory and his time working with The Albion.

Richard and the Pod Squad (Russ, Pete and Alan) then looked back with enormous fondness on what without doubt has been the finest, the greatest and the most successful campaign in this grand old club’s entire 122 year history.

Best goals, best games, best moments and players of the season are of course discussed and reflections are also made on Graham Potter’s exit, plus Albion having no fewer than 8 players at the World Cup with one of them only going and winning the damn thing (complete with a key assist in the final).

Then there’s Lewis Dunk topping the pass and touch stats for the whole PL, while Julio Enciso bagged the MoTD and PL goal of the season award.

WHAT a season!

Stand or fall! UTA! Bring on Europe!!!

The Gent joined Russell pre and post match on Wednesday evening to reflect on the Saints game, Albion’s achievements this season and what he feels we need to do this coming transfer window to strengthen according to our needs and requirements….

…and then there was the City game itself and WHAT a game! The first half in particular was sensationally good and you could tell the delight and awe with which Albion fans embraced it as captured in the pod. What a night! What a team! What a season!

Stand or fall!   UTA! World’s Best v World’s Most Entertaining 😎⚽️
