Celebs have say on Black Country derby debate

Two celebrity football fans have shared their thoughts on whether the upcoming match between West Bromwich Albion and Wolverhampton Wanderers can be described as a Black Country derby.

Debate has raged as fans have their say on BBC Radio WM, with some making the point Wolverhampton has not historically been classed as part of the area and should instead be viewed as standing alone.

Adrian Chiles and Suzi Perry – Baggies and Wolves fans respectively – agreed Sunday's FA Cup clash could accurately be described as a Black County derby; the first match between the clubs in more than a decade.
