Slightly later on here but for those Blue Sky subscribers who have completely deserted X…

It’s my understanding that #WBA aren’t pursuing Swansea head coach, Luke Williams for their vacant role.

It’s likely another case of an agent drumming up interest in their client, as seen with Martin links.

Happy New Year! Live football is back on BBC Radio WM to kick off 2025!

Covering Albion for BBC Radio WM has been my first club reporter role.

Carlos Corberan was a pleasure to interview. A coach with a brilliant tactical mind, who answered questions in depth.

More importantly, he is a decent, family man. Good luck with the move back home 🇪🇸 #WBA

I understand this morning that talks are ongoing between Valencia & #WBA after an official approach to speak to head coach Carlos Corberan has been made by the Spanish club. No deal done yet though.

I asked Carlos Corberan about #WBA's recent upturn in scoring goals at home (6 in the last 3 after 2 in 7) but also conceding (4 in 3 after just 1 in 7) and what followed was a mini coaching seminar. I found it interesting. Hopefully you do too! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I spoke to Carlos Corberan after Albion’s 2-2 draw with Norwich City #WBA

FT: #WBA 2-2 Norwich - GOALS!! 😲

Unbeaten in 8 or 1 win in 10. Which way do you look at the current run of form? Baggies fans might have come away from the Hawthorns a bit happier having seen some goals at least and the performance was largely good. CC felt they dropped after 70 mins.

No major surprise to see an unchanged #WBA team. I thought Grant supported Maja well up top v Hull but also linked up well out wide with MJ. No Diangana in the squad. Harry Whitwell, who is very highly thought of by Carlos Corberan, gets his place on the bench

I guess there’s still a migration of people to happen over here. I still have my X account but it would be nice to see more people on here too. The last game before the international break was decent, so hopefully #WBA can build on that.
