DERBY DAY: PENDING... 👀
@WBA
will play hosts to local rivals
@Wolves
in the
#EmiratesFACup
fourth round, setting up the first meeting in 3 years between the two sides! ⚔️
BIG thanks to the club today
@wba
for this surprise in the HT announcements as I read them out from the big screen 👀
Like to point out to
@wolsey_designs
that I didn’t have any part in writing it
Properly touched 😍
#wba
Got my Dad to his first ever football match tonight and he watched as I did my usual
#stadiumannouncer
duties
@WBA
A cracking 2-0 win made it even sweeter 🎤⚽️👍
Just a tad up for this one - aiming to be nice and loud on the 🎤 tonight
@WBA
Loads for the fans at half-time tonight too…Brendon Batson, Sean Flynn and more ⚽️🔵⚪️
Wouldn’t mind a home goal or 3 to announce too
#wbacov
In place for the big
@WBA
game tonight…with a new owner watching on 👀
Well, won’t get to sit here once Don Carlos 👑 walks in but keeping it warm til then.
Planning to make it just that extra bit louder tonight
#stadiumannouncer
@AnnouncersPod
Tell you what, that touchline was a great place to be tonight, privilege for any
#stadiumannouncer
@wba
brought the noise and the scenes
(Just hope I said Asante right, could be saying it a bit more! 🎤⚽️)
#WBABUR
Huge thanks to the
@AnnouncersPod
community that have been in touch…the Wembley announcing dream remains just that…
Feel just at home at the Hawthorns anyway
@WBA
…see you in August for season number 10 ⚪️🔵🎤⚽️
Great to have Billie Smith playing some tunes at half-time today.
Looking forward to having more
#baggies
talent play on the pitch and in the fanzone
@WBA
After a great last few days, I find myself looking forward to my first full week in an actual salaried job as a communications professional - whilst still presenting and hosting like I did before.
Lucky ain’t the word.
👌
Fantastic last day of the season with some real legends including
@Lady_Gabbs
@Joewycherley
@JADERK93
plus some bloke called Zoltan Gera 😂😂
Have loved another season as host and stadium announcer
@WBA
🎤⚽️
Now, which way to the beach?☀️
Trying to settle the nerves before the big one tomorrow
@WBA
on the mic 🎤⚽️
So much great stuff pre-kick off and just know that atmosphere will be special.
Still sick as a dog - will be a final day like no other 🔵⚪️

Can we make it a thing that if you want to protest maskless & un-socially distanced about COVID then you instantly lose any right to furlough so you know exactly how any extension to restrictions REALLY affect people who’ve had no financial support since March ‘20
#ExcludedUK
IT’S ON! For my last show on Thursday I’ll be having a leaving disco on the show - requests and shout outs all welcome plus Free bar! (as in the Free Radio bar...which is our slightly empty office beer fridge)
#WorcestershireHour
Anyone that says I got to
@wba
a bit earlier to try and steal a hot water bottle from the home duggout would be ABSOLUTELY RIGHT 🥶
Here’s hoping the game keeps us warm
#wbamid
#stadiumannouncers
Just finished covering drivetime
@bbchw
and this is all the face you’re getting. Made it, loved it, and learned loads (code for made a few boo boos) so try again tomorrow from 4pm! 🤞🏻
First proper Monday of freelancing/unemployment. Some stuff happened so decided it needs rating:
Not lazing around in bed: ✅
Resisting wall to wall sunbathing: ✅
Actually meeting a human: 👍
Sorting stockpiled paperwork: 😔
Household chores: 🤨
Discovering what’s ‘next’:🤷♂️
Almost a year ago to the day I left commercial radio and was lucky enough to get opportunities to work with and learn from
@bbchw
@BBCCWR
and will be forever grateful. ..whatever's next.
Things I forgot about
#Euro96
1. Fergie and Keegan did an interview together.
2. Kasper Schmeichel was part of the opening ceremony.
3. The warm ups were proper Sunday league
#Euro96Relived
@tracynewbold22
Not nervous, just excited - atmosphere going to beyond special and feel lucky to be part of it today 🔵⚪️
Tell you what though, welcoming
@WBA
on to the pitch will be LOUD 🎤⚽️
