I''ve enjoyed reading your message board since Albion''s draw at Carrow Road, especially the stuff about our ''win at all costs'' methods employed this year. It has been true that we have played this way and some Albion fans have been vociferous in their displeasure. Those that have supported Megson''s ways would say this : We came down from the premier with a team good enough to get promoted again, but punch drunk after so many defeats. Therefore that team had to be replaced. This has therefore been a transitional season for us, but we had to get back to the Premier. To lose momentum would have been disastrous, and the long term plan is to not become a yo-yo side. So, we played with a completely new side that still hasn''t gelled properly, but the difference from last time is that the new lads are all young, fit, winners. We found out in the premier that some can''t handle it up there, so they have gone. A new nucleus (of 6 or 7 rather than the 2 or 3 from last time) is ready to be built on and we are ready for another go, and we''re not naive either. Megson knows that we won''t play in the same style next season, and I''m sure that you won''t either. I wish you the very best for next season, lets hope we can emulate Birmingham and Charlton.
