Why all the fuss about the Albion's promotion?
Let us not forget that, in fact, they have merely gone from the Fourth Division to the Third, whereas once they were in the First Division (now called the Premier).
Renaming First Premier did not raise the status of the Fourth Division.
Already (on the radio) the manager is saying he will want a substantial (or a word to that effect) increase in the money available for buying new players before the next season starts.
So even he, in reality, realises the Albion are at the bottom of the heap.
And I guess he will be up and gone as soon as another club that will pay him more emerges.
