Why is it players beginning with "D" keep leaving the Albion?

Already this season we have seen the departures of Darren Currie and Danny Cullip (sold), David Lee, Dan Beck and Darren Budd (released) and Dean Blackwell (retired).

Hopefully the list will never be extended to include Dan Harding, Dean Hammond or Dean Cox, although the departure of Dean White would help slim down Albion's ludicrously weighty coaching staff.

The only D-day that really matters for Albion fans this season is the decision on Falmer. I am sure this will be a "yes" but would an unexpected "no" see Dick Knight go too?

Meanwhile, manager Mark McGhee has signed two players who share his initials - Maheta Molango and Mark McCammon.

Judging by some of his somewhat controversial decisions, I assume Mickey Mouse is next.
