Albion sign Rob Hulse from Crewe Alex and James O'Conner from stoke although Albions supposed signing Bernt Haas from sunderland has sufferd a set back its been an good day at The Hawthorns

Its been eagily awaited. Worrys of going into the first game of the season can now be put to rest as albion sign two players(Yes that is two)in one day. Hulse and O'Conner said it is Albion's ambitions which attracted them to the club. Former college buddies were re-united today as they both went for photo shoot to be taken with the name and numbers on the back of the new albion home shirt at The Hawthorns.

Although it all sounds very good and exciting there no such thing as a good day when it comes to transfer with West Brom. The Bernt Haas transfer has been put on hold after the clubs couldn't agree personel terms and Sunderland asked Haas to return to the north east.

Also yesterday Macidonian international Sakiri had a work permit application turned down and we was told 'He wouldn't make a big contribution to English football at West Brom'. Albion have told fans that they are going to take the permit application to the Home Office.
