Even Last Gasp Defeats Can't Spoil The Mood
Welcome To The Hawthorns Debate Club. A West Brom Podcast with Jamie Clay, Joe Clay and Alex Collins.
The festive period begins and the season of joy seems to be in full flow at the Albion. Despite our most recent defeat to Leicester, there is a lovely positivity about the Hawthorns. We discuss our recent performances against Leicester, Cardiff and Ipswich. Before we get in the Christmas mood with a Christmassy themed mini game, where we unwrap players from different time periods. They can’t all be mega hits. We also chat about the injury to Matty Philips and our upcoming fixture against Sunderland. Optimism remains.
Apologies for Jamie’s and Alex’s microphone quality… few audio problems.

Troubleshooting A Failed Season
Welcome To The Hawthorns Debate Club. A West Brom Podcast with Jamie Clay, Joe Clay and Alex Collins.
In this week’s sleepy episode we hammer the final few rusty nails into the coffin of the season that promised so much but delivered so little. We briefly mention the Coventry game, before turning our eyes to the future. We discuss the reports that Steve Bruce will seemingly be in charge next season, is this a good thing or a bad thing? We then turn our attention to troubleshooting the deeper issues at the club, before we each offer an elevator pitch as to how we'd fix the club. Ron pick up the phone... we are expecting your call. Are Albion fans entitled? Joe is the new Paul Scharner? Riding an elevator to the ISS? Business Architecture to the rescue?

Welcome To The Hawthorns Debate Club. A West Brom Podcast with Jamie Clay, Joe Clay and Alex Collins.
In this week’s Lord of the Rings length episode, we continue the never-ending conversation about the epic mess we find ourselves in. We talk about a victory against Blackpool that felt like a loss and a loss against Forest that felt like the last nail in the coffin of this miserable season. We actually debate about the perceived attitude problem in the present playing squad. We also ask, do these last two games finally mean the end of the road for Bruce? We also chat about the booing of CR7 and the referee who maybe wanted Bruce gone too. Before wrapping up with some predictions about the Coventry Game. Is it over yet? Scapegoating? Bruce Out?

Consistently Inconsistent
Welcome To The Hawthorns Debate Club. A West Brom Podcast with Jamie Clay, Joe Clay and Alex Collins.
In this week’s jazz free form episode we wade through the thick balmy layers of mediocrity. We talk about our consistent inconsistency in our last three games against The Blues, The Cherries and Stoke. We talk about Andy Carroll and his future. We talk about the effort and attitude and the response to our current form from the players. We ask the question is it simply all the players fault or does the blame spread further and deeper? Before making some predictions about the Blackpool and Forest game? All hope is gone? More likely than a shark attack? Blood the youngsters?

True/False Dawn
Welcome To The Hawthorns Debate Club. A West Brom Podcast with Jamie Clay, Joe Clay and Alex Collins.
In this week's episode we finally have some respite. We discuss Albion’s humbling of relegation strugglers Hull City. Is this a moment for renewed hope? Or a simply a beatdown on a poor side? We also discuss the reintroduction of TGH to the starting eleven. We navigate the potential rot at the club and ask the question is there a need for a clear out. Before previewing our upcoming fixture against the Terriers. Taming tigers is easy? TGH the first name on the team sheet? International Spy Network?
