Christ, he scored a hattrick.
If he did that every week he'd end the season with 138 league goals. I guess that would only be very good, not exceptional?
If the West Brom front 3/4 can continue producing like they did against us and tonight they're probably out of reach. Not impenetrable defensively though.
Simms scores a first half hattrick and he's only "maybe pushing an 8" just for that half? What else can the man do? 3 goals from his first 3 shots inside 40 mins, giving himself and the team the opportunity to ease off second half and save the legs.

He has a role to play but Sheaf and Torp should be the partnership once fit. On last nights display Eccles could be shifted wide to compete with Milan.
