Is there a way of finding archived threads?
Was just thinking about the old view from threads and wouldn’t mind rereading the one with Lawro and/or Adrian Chiles

Loved waiting up for MOTD to see if he’d say the phrase he promised to say to prove it was him.

I don’t understand the OP - who was Lawro saying this to? To whom did chiles agree to say a word?

Do you think I would be able to find a thread I started about ten years ago about wet farts? I remember someone said it was WHO gold.

Interesting that link you put up that has WHO pages starting from about 20 years ago. I had a bit of a look. I was reminded of Ged’s walk from Wembley to Upton Park, before kickoff against Middlesbrough, to raise money to buy shares in the club for the West Ham Supporters trust! I wonder what happened to all that.

Assuming the Liverpool and Blackburn ones were after that and doesn’t look like anything after March in 2009 was saved

Re: Is there a way of finding archived threads?
Chiles was MOTD presenter between 2005 - 2010 and we played WBA on these dates during that period, so would be one of these dates which would narrow your searches down

One McAvennieeeeee 12 Mar 2009

After the World Wide free advertising I got for this site, me and my researchers have decided to take this weeks Q&A; to the celebrity world. The Black Country's favourite son and Presenter of BBC's Match of the Day 2 and The One Show Adrian Chiles has kindly agreed to answer our questions this week.

Q. My first question is usually how do you feel the season is going so far – but I’ll ask, do you think WBA will stay up?

A. If we beat you it's possible. If we don't, it's not.



Q. When newly promoted teams come up they usually go from winning most matches in the Championship to losing most – Can you still say you’ve enjoyed this season?

A. Sorry, really can't say I have.


Q. Tony Mowbray admirably refuses to sacrifice West Broms playing style in an attempt to grind out results – how is that viewed amongst the Baggies faithful?

A. Yes, I think so. He's liked and respected. I've not heard him getting much stick.


Q. Last month he slated Alan Hanson and Mark Lawrenson calling them ‘sofa critics’ not good enough for management – do you stand by your manager on that one or do you back the two sofa critics not good enough for management?

A. Sorry to be boring but I don't think he actually slated Alan and Mark, and I don't really think either of them had a pop at him. That said, I'll back Tony every time because blood's thick than water.


Q. What is your view of West Ham this season?

A. Improving all the time. Nice guy in charge. Fans, for once, not moaning much.


Q. And our fans.... be honest?

A. see above


Q. What player doesn’t deserve his place in your starting line-up?

A. I have a few thoughts on that but can't bring myself to share them with you. It'd be like publicly criticising my children.


Q. Who should we look out for?

A. Fortune has shown signs of being a good finisher - which is not something his historical strike rate suggested..


Q. If you could choose one player from WHU to play for you, who would it be?

A. Any warrior type figure you have in your midfield would be a great help.


Q. Mark Lawrenson or GTHC as he is known to members of our site does a weekly score prediction in the premiership. If his predictions were correct we’d be 5th from bottom on 21 points (18 points out) Do you think you’d get more sense if you asked Stephen Hawkin to be a pundit on MoTD?

A. You won't get me saying a bad word about Mark. He's one of the nicest people I work with.


Q. Being a WBA I’m sure there can’t be many but what is your favourite football related memory?

A. Igor Balis scoring a penalty at Bradford in the dying moments of the penultimate match of our first promotion season. I get gooseflesh just thinking about it.


Q. What is the best/funniest football chant you can remember?

A. At our recent home drubbing by ManU the entire ground, their fans, our fans, young and old, were singing about Super Robbie Styles. Irony is king.


Q. If you could instigate one rule change what would it be?

A. Have another crack at the rugby-style rule of conceding 10 yards for dissent. That was a missed opportunity. Also really clamping down on timewasting by the side in front.


Q. Our fans forum is full of jokers and as such it is unlikely that many will believe that it is actually you answering the questions – What will you do/say on MoTD2 the Sunday before our game to prove it? (I assume giving Lawro a kick-in is out of the question).

A. I will say "West Brom's hopes of survival go well and truly west if they don't beat West Ham tomorrow night. Or something like that.


Q. If Gary Lineker was to get a (non walkers) crisp lodged in his throat thus paving the way for you to take the top MoTD job – what flavour crisp would you like it to be?

A. Roast Chicken


Q. Do you have a fantasy football team – if so who is in it?

A. No I don't. But if I did I'd be sure not to sacrifice my footballing principles.


Thanks very much for answering Adrian – it really is greatly appreciated.

I looked up 14 March 2009 because it was close to Trundle’s date of 21 March 2009, and lo and behold the Adrian Chiles interview was there!
