Thanks Allan, I hope you have a good season.
I don’t think Madrid has the glamour of West Bromwich but I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.— Chris lees (@LeesChrislees) August 17, 2018
Good luck Allan, I was disgusted to hear some of the remarks you've received. You always given 100 percent and played with a smile. I for one will miss you.

OPINION
Nyom has taken a huge amount of abuse from some West Brom fans who were lashing out after their side’s poor season and subsequent relegation. This is a really classy message from a player who started his West Brom career really well but then tailed off towards the end. Thankfully most fans have responded to this message in the right way, wishing him luck with his career and acknowledging what is obviously a heartfelt statement. In the excitement of supporting a football club it’s easy to forget that they’re humans too, with feelings. Many fans said that Nyom always gave 100% and that’s all you can ask. Form is temporary, class is permanent. We wish Nyom luck in Spain too as well. Baggies fans can now look forward to Darren Moore landing another right-back, with Rangers James Tavernier one on of the names that’s been mentioned.
