I think that might be the worst I've seen us play this season. Dan James poor all match, taking too many shots from acute angles when there were better options and Solomon poor as well. Seemed to have a collective lack of desire/energy
Which will come as a surprise to some on here who have taken promotion as a certainty. Tempting fate ffs
It’s a point against a tricky team, 5 wins 2 draws now, that’s the last top 6 we have to play, one more against a top 10 then its bottom half to go
By no means a bad result today. A point nearer the target we looked tired and entitled to after great couple of weeks. We’d have take 7 points from last 9 if offered two weeks ago
A bit of a strange performance today. We weren't terrible but were nowhere near our best. West Brom set up to play which gave us plenty of space to attack but we just couldn't find the final pass. Very frustrating. We didn't get the bounce of the ball very often and the ref (and linesman in front of the east stand) gave them everything they could. As for the atmosphere. Not sure the fans could have done much more in the second half. It was very vocal in the kop and non-stop for the last 30 minutes or so. Just one of those days where the opposition played as well as they could and we had an off day with lady luck and officials going against us all afternoon. Its a point closer to 93 which is all we will need.
Obviously we wanted the win, but a draw is all we deserved. Baggies did well. This was never gonna be an easy game, not sure there’ll be many easy ones before the season ends, as nerves will kick in. Hopefully this’ll refocus them for Portsmouth away and Millwall home, our next 2 games. Still think we’ll win the title but it’s not a forgone conclusion, we’ll have to work hard for it.
I too was in the kop and was impressed. Fine margins. Their keeper had a wonderful finger tip save. Had that gone in everyone would be happy. Could be very tight at top between three by the time We play next Sunday. Just on board flight home now
On the train yesterday I heard fans discussing if we would get the points record for this division. Then the guy stood behind me was shouting that this league is too easy for us and that we should be winning 6-0 after Firpo scored. Back on the train, fans were discussing transfers for next season in the Premier League. Hopefully the players are more switched on.
I still cannot understand not having a striker. Piroe isnot one and joseph is hopeless and like Bamford being paid for nothing. Should have sold the spanish kid and funded an old head to bring in when needed like saturday.
Yes. 93 points will get us automatic promotion. The other two will have to get 94 points to be above us.
