Albion have announced that the club will no longer play "The Liquidator" during the pre-match, because a vocal minority of fans are still chanting along with abusive lyrics during that part of the music... "F*** OFF WANDERERS! WEST BROM!"
It was banned at the Molineux because the W***es supporters were doing their similar version. And now Albion have done the same.
I may be thousands of miles across land and sea from the Hawthorns, but I'm still saddened by this decision. I don't see anything wrong with occasional foul language during any sporting event. And if Albion want to deal with the "obscene chanting" they should identify those responsible, not penalise the majority.
On a personal note, I've woken up every matchday morning to "The Liquidator" since my sister gave me a CD-playing alarm clock last Christmas. I'm not going to change that routine either.
