The 2015–16 season wasWest Bromwich Albion's sixth consecutive season in thePremier League and their 138th year in existence.[1] This season West Bromwich Albion participated in thePremier League,FA Cup andLeague Cup. The season covered the period from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016.
The writers of theBirmingham Mail forecast that Albion would finish somewhere between 10th and 16th, the average of all their predictions being 13th place.[2]The Guardian also forecast a 13th-place finish for Albion, predicting that Tony Pulis would "be able to drive his side to safety" in his first full season in charge.[3]
The club created a "fanzone", in which up to 2,000 supporters could gather before and after home matches. The fanzone is based in the vicinity of the 19th centuryGrade Two listed Hawthorns pub, adjacent to Albion's home ground,The Hawthorns. In order to facilitate this, the wings of the pub building were demolished and the central structure renovated inside and out. The work was initially delayed due to the discovery of horsehair in the building's plaster, which needed to be tested foranthrax spores. Work resumed once the tests came back negative.[4]
