West Bromwich Albion supporters just want to get promoted. It looked very likely that the Baggies would finish the season in the top two in the Championship, and they should still manage it, but when the season ends is now the real conundrum for the Baggies.
An update from the football authorities.https://t.co/yf9Xxw6l5h

The latest from the EFL is that the season will be postponed until April 30th and the earliest, although they have pledged that the season will be completed, no matter how long it takes to reach some form of conclusion.
This news is certainly positive for the Baggies as it means they’ll be set to get their shot at finishing this season and winning promotion back to the Premier League, but the wait promises to be a very long one, and the supporters are going to really struggle with the barren footballing times.

Slaven keep the guys ticking over until we resume and go in and win the title. Stay safe everyone.

The supporters are now embroiled in a long game for football, but at least they should see their side promoted eventually, assuming there’s no collapse.
