But also had a couple of dodgy moments with half arsed clearances that presented Albion with early shooting opportunities in our area.

Did someone call for a prick tonight?Go back to the Wasps thread if that's all you got out of tonight's game
Pretty much my feelings, they are a very good teamUs and burnley are the only 2 teams to take points from west brom in the last 12 matches , they've 7 clean sheets at home in a row .
This isn't a shock result , if Bruce never started the season there they'd be pushing Sheffield united and Burnley
We lost 1-0 , not 7
Glaring miss!! All he had to do was side foot it in! Trying to bloody Hollywood a friggin shot. Pisses me off when players do that
You're here now so we might as well engage with youDid someone call for a prick tonight?
Come on who called for him!!!
Our best chance was not selling Hyam and making 2/3 additions in the summer.
Everyone kept quiet because they kept our best players.

Think there’s something there though. Looks committed and doesn’t hide.But also had a couple of dodgy moments with half arsed clearances that presented Albion with early shooting opportunities in our area.
Luton & Millwall both beat us at home last season and both are better teams this season .Agree. Not a season defining result. Expect 4 points from next 2 games
Eccles has a touch of class about him don't he.

Time for Robins to look at our forward options, starts in midfield, Eccles to come in to his preferred midfield position, if for no other reason but to see he can hack it there, I think he can, I’m not an Allen knocker and he certainly wasn’t the worst player tonight, but id bring Hamer into his roll, stronger and more positive, up front there has to be a better option on who plays alongside Vik ws have choices now Godden, Maguire, Palmer. Also Is playing wing backs our best option now, not sure about the two loanees brought in not done it yet for me, I take Robins attempt to bring the lad in from Bristol City suggests he agrees. Got to spend rest of the season working on next season, although top six isn’t completely out of the question I am realistic but we will finish higher than we are today I’m sure of that.
Get used to it folks, it’ll be this way for the rest of the season. We will lose a couple and think we’re shit, win a couple and think if we win a couple more then what about 6th place….then lose a couple more.
It’s all about the summer rebuild at this point.
Robins has to do something and he knows that himself but we can’t continue with Allen contributing zero most games. I agree hamer needs to push on further forward from now on.Read this after my post. Agree about seeing Eccles in midfield, especially if it frees hamer up further forward where he’s shown he can do some damage. means we can press higher as well
Clueless, to borrow a phraseRobins has to do something and he knows that himself but we can’t continue with Allen contributing zero most games. I agree hamer needs to push on further forward from now on.

Who Allen?Clueless, to borrow a phrase
Anyone else think both the new full backs are rubbish
Norton-Cuffey has played regularly the season though, and with Dabo struggling for fitness...Just strange signings. Especially Cuffey as he just looks woefully out of his depth

It's more bedding in. Does show that last season when there was a clamour for January signings to push us over the line, it might have worked the other way with the momentum disrupted.
Yes agree with this wholeheartedly- why we don’t put people on and around their wall as this is often the gap when they duck that creates the opening for the goal Vik had attention from two players every time he had it , one time he was fouled after the ref had blown up for an earlier foul - he gave one free kick for one foul on VikJust a couple of points:
1) I am amazed how Gyokeres hasn't had more bookings shouting at refs this season. The amount of times he is fouled where a foul is either not given or the defender not booked is beyond belief. Equally if he as much as lays a finger on a defender when tussling for the ball a foul always seems to be given against him. There seems very little balance. The opposition therefore seem to be given impunity to foul him and stop our attacking threat at source, and so it becomes an effective tactic used against us. The fact that refs don't book Gyokeres is a sign to me that they probably do think he has been fouled, but for some reason they set the bar higher for fouls against him rather than vice versa.
2) In the last minute when we had the free kick which Hamer took level with the area, I never at any point felt it was dangerous to them and that we would score, even though the delivery itself was ok. I find it continually frustrating when we have such free kicks where the opposition line up in numbers and we simply line up with them, making us easy to mark and effectively relying on luck. For the football managers among you why don't our better headers of the ball position themselves deeper so that they can attack the ball moving forwards rather than start from a flat footed position when they are standing still? It seems such an obvious thing to do, to offer more threat from such situations but maybe I'm missing something.
There’s a report about the teams, Baggies have Premier ready players and bought in two more, Albrighton and Chalobah in this window. We loaned in three kids and a player who hasn’t played in nearly six months, go figure.

Would be a complete waste of Hamer to play him further forward. Instead we should play Godden with Gyokeres, especially as Gyokeres is struggling at the moment. Teams have realised if they stop him we are pretty toothless.Read this after my post.
