Good set of results this weekend. Despite a poor opening half to the season it turns out there are still 5 worse sides below us and some equally hopeless sides just above (I'm looking at you Aston Villa). Tony Pulis meanwhile takes his 100% record to Scouseland to take on Everton.
The revolution is firmly underway now with the scouts and coaches sent packing. Paul Jewell has also decided to go back to being a non-entity on Sky.
No new arrivals yet although reports are that we've offered £4m for Callum McManaman. Outgoing Blanco, Ideye and Varela all linked with moves away. Berahino looks to be staying put for the time being.
Thoughts about potential incomings and outgoings and tomorrow's game...

"The Trinity Mirror Data Unit have taken the average attendance of all football league clubs this season, and compared it to the 2011 Census population for the council area from which the club takes its name."
1. West Bromwich Albion clearly does not take its name from the council area of Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council. West Bromwich is spelled W-e-s-t B-r-o-m-w-i-c-h while Sandwell is spelled S-a-n-d-w-e-l-l.
2. Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council comprises the six towns of Oldbury, Rowley Regis, Smethwick, Tipton, Wednesbury, and West Bromwich.
3. As given by The Legacy in his post above, the population of West Bromwich is 75,405 (town) or 136,940 (urban sub-area). These are both census figures.
4. Albion's average PL home attendance so far this season is 24,925. This equates to 33.05% of 75,405 and 18.20% of 136,940 - again as given by The Legacy (see his above).

WOLVES55 seemed to have missed a link to this:

...while he was crowing about inaccurate stats about boroughs.
'Revenue outside the top flight is far lower in England –
latest accounts show Wolverhampton Wanderers posted a loss of £30.4 million and Birmingham City made losses of £4 million.'
Blouse richer than Wolves....
