Albion 'Til I Die 2

West Bromwich Albion promoted the launch of Albion ‘Til I Die 2 during Saturday match with Preston North End – a double page spread of photos from the first book, plus a request for new stories, appeared in the match programme and the electric scoreboard echoed the message.

Allison Tripney, the Albion Foundation's education and learning manager, said: "It's amazing the stories you hear about life as an Albion fan, stories that make you laugh, make you think and some you can even shed a tear to. ‘Albion 'Til I Die 2' is the perfect opportunity to get those stories out and about. This is a tremendous opportunity for all supporters to get involved in the printed history of West Bromwich Albion Football Club."

The Albion Foundation are also running 'open house' sessions at locations throughout Sandwell to ensure fans don't miss out on getting involved, and the Albion Foundation's headquarters, at the Tom Silk Building, Halfords Lane, will be open for supporters to visit before the Coventry and Leicester matches. Fans will be able to share their stories from two hours before kick-off. You speak. We'll listen. And together we can write. For further information, contact Jennie Cook on 0871 271 9840.

Following the success of the 'Albion 'Til I Die' book in 2006, the Albion Foundation, in partnership with the National Literacy Trust and Legends Publishing, have decided to produce a sequel - and they need YOUR help.

They want supporters to come forward who are 'Albion 'Til They Die', know the feelings of excitement, exhilaration and elation that being a Baggie can evoke - not to mention despair, desperation and disappointment!

We want to hear from all fans who have a story to tell about why they became an Albion follower and the lengths they have gone to support their beloved Baggies. Maybe you've had to choose between the stars in stripes and somebody's wedding? Do the Albion always come first in your life? Have you got any pre-match rituals you always follow? How did they come about? Be a proud Baggie and get your story in print!
