Official Match Thread: v West Brom (A)

Now HSBC ?

 

Was you sent there?

 

What...?

 

no i was a good boy back then lol well i didn't get caught

just young and bored, so did a bit of travelling while i could (ie no kids)

 

Just take a trip to see the Valley Boys.

As for being inbred then Social Services in Somerset have a notation NFB - Normal For Bridgwater

 

Same as any others fixture.

We must win.

If Chelsea lose we will only be a couple of points off them.

Obviously its unlikely we will mix it with them, but its important to follow in their slip stream to get away from the likes of Spurs.

 

Swansea is a lovely place, well the Gower area is anyway.

 

The bank?????

Did it used t be called the Midland??

Dribbles riddles confuse me again!

 

So since Pepe Mel has come in the Baggies have drew 1-1 at home V EFC and lost 4-3 away to Villa

 

Really worried we'll be flat after a great performance against the bitters. We need to start flying and carry that into next week for Arsenal.

 

Its always a worry Jaffa

Dont know how this new manager has them playing

Not an easy team and have some good players

Give it to SAS

 

Ahh........we were worried before the derby and look what happened there.

Confident we'll do 'em

 

Watched some of the highlights (extended) the other night and they looked very leaky at the back. Villa scored 4 after all and they had only scored 8 at home all season. Still some decent forward players but don't look as solid as they did with Clarke there.
A few years ago we used to go there and score a hatful but memories of that awful performance there last year keep coming to mind. A win is a must. I know they all are but after the derby and with arsenal next we just have to.
Would like to see us attack them with the intensity we did Everton from the off.

 

Why should we be flat? OK so it was a Derby with all that attaches itself to that but now we are back to the league as it is. The pressure is on, we have a 3 point cushion on all those chasing us. So there's no need to find something to lift us - the challenge is on!

 

Yeah and when we do that, you better have a good defence or you're chasing shadows

 

I agree. Too many times in the past we've fallen on our faces after a good performance. We need to make sure we keep our momentum and play like we did against Spurs at WHL. If I remember rightly we played well against WBA at Anfield but struggled to break them down and get a goal. Wasn't it that game when Sturridge did his cracking lob to score our only goal?

 

I think he means Midland Bank became HSBC. What manner of mind?

 

It was slightly on the random side but then, it wouldn't be our dribs if it wasn't random

 

True

 

But the word BANK is often used in the Midlands to describe a hill eg Kidsgrove Bank in SOT. Don't know if that helps at all
