00:00Massey's Calf, Oldbury. Hello Richie.

00:02Hello.

00:03So you are Richie Massey, it's your calf.

00:05I am, yeah.

00:06And we're going to call this a practice,

00:08because there's going to be way more sausages on the grill Saturday, isn't there?

00:11Yeah, absolutely there will be, yeah.

00:12So what's going on then? Are you a Baggies fan at Westbrook Albion?

00:16Yep, so homing away every week.

00:20Yeah, I've been for over 30 years.

00:23Yeah?

00:23Yeah.

00:24So you heard that there might be sowing in this Adam...

00:27Adam Armstrong.

00:28And you thought that ain't happening?

00:29Yeah, I thought that's not happening, not with our financial difficulties.

00:33Yeah.

00:35Put the tweet out.

00:37So what was the tweet saying?

00:38So the tweet says if you actually sign him,

00:42the free sausage sandwiches before the next home game.

00:45Yeah.

00:46So that's exactly what we're doing.

00:49Well yeah, for those not in the know, he's signed, isn't he?

00:52Yeah, so he signed very late on.

00:54So how did you find out he'd signed?

00:56So I was on Twitter and then around 10 to 11 there was rumours that

01:01we could still be involved when the windows closed at 11.

01:06Yeah.

01:07And he literally took 12 hours later but he eventually did sign

01:12and what a signing that he could be for us.

01:14So did you kind of think, well hopefully no one's noticed that tweet I put out?

01:19I'll just keep quiet on that like.

01:20Yeah, I never mentioned it but then all of a sudden,

01:23once the rumour that was that he may be signing.

01:25Yeah.

01:26You start getting the pings.

01:27Yeah.

01:28I'll be in Saturday.

01:29Yeah, absolutely fantastic though.

01:30All I must admit, all we've had is constant support of everyone.

01:34So yeah, I really, really can't, can't go wrong.

01:37That's good, that's good.

01:38So how many sausage sandwiches do you think you'll be banging out for free on Saturday then?

01:42If you took a guess.

01:44We're estimating between £250 and £300.

01:48That's going to cost you a few quid, isn't it?

01:50It will cost me a few quid.

01:52Yeah.

01:52Hopefully people that come buy something else and then we can get a lift.

01:56Yeah, you must stress.

01:57You want a drink with that sir?

01:58Maybe two drinks?

02:00Yeah, absolutely.

02:00But no, any support that anybody wants to offer us, fantastic.

02:04But we're true to our word.

02:07We're doing exactly what we said that we'd do.

02:09Yeah.

02:09We've got all our staff ready to go.

02:12So yeah, we're really looking forward to it.

02:14So what's the window of opportunity for free sausage frills?

02:18So, the game kicks off at half 12.

02:21Yeah.

02:21So we'll be looking, we'll be opening around 8 o'clock.

02:25Yeah.

02:26And I'm guessing everything will die off around 11.

02:28So people can get to the ground in time.

02:32Who's it got Saturday then?

02:34So we've got Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday.

02:36Yeah.

02:36Will Armstrong be playing or is that being turned up?

02:39I hope so, yeah, if he's available.

02:42He's been playing Southampton, so I'm guessing that he will be available, yeah.

02:45So are you pleased with the signing?

02:46Yeah, absolutely.

02:47I think it's absolutely fantastic.

02:49He's Kevin Phillips type of player.

02:51A player that we've been missing for a long time.

02:54Type of player that every squad and every club would like a goal scorer.

02:59Yeah.

03:00And so is it in the blood then, Baggies?

03:02Is it like a family thing?

03:03Yeah, so me and my dad have been going since, I'll be going since 1993.

03:07Yeah.

03:08Yeah, what a year that was for us as well.

03:10And what did your old man say about this treat?

03:12Oh, he loves it.

03:13He's absolutely, absolutely positive for us.

03:16I wonder if he'll be down Saturday.

03:17He'll definitely be down.

03:18He'll definitely be down.

03:20Yeah, yeah.

03:20So I guess the pleasure in signing Armstrong is,

03:25you know, it's carrying you through this pain of having to lay out a few quid on Saturday.

03:29Absolutely.

03:30So we're really looking forward to it.

03:32It's going to be fantastic for everybody.

03:34Hopefully it gives us a little bit, puts us on the map basically.

03:37Yeah, so for people not in the know,

03:40you're just kind of almost opposite Sandwell and Dudley Station.

03:42That's the one, isn't it?

03:43Yeah, we are.

03:44Get yourself down Saturday, guys.

03:46Make him work, make him pay.

03:48Cheers, Bridget.
