Published: Sept. 19, 2022, 3:07 p.m.

Here we go! After 10 days living in excited anticipation about who our next Head Coach would be we finally have the answer - and what an answer!!! Albion\u2019s first choice and pretty much everybody else\u2019s amongst the fanbase once they became familiar with his work and glowing credentials was officially confirmed on Sunday night (18th Sept), as Roberto De Zerbi, the 43 year old former Sassuolo and Shakhdar Coach.\n\nRumours became widespread that the deal was done and that he\u2019d been spotted in town. It was thought the announcement might be delayed until after Monday\u2019s royal funeral, but then the club published a statement on their website formalising the news. \n\nHe will be introduced to the media on Tuesday before making his preparations to get settled in Sussex and underway with the task of picking up where Graham Potter left off. \n\nTo discuss the then imminent, now published announcement were regulars Russ and Pete, plus Raymond The Gent and making his first \u2018Zoomed\u2019 pod appearance Alan D.\n\n\n Stand or fall!\xa0\xa0\xa0UTA!
