It's only natural after the keeper has kept a clean sheet

Looking forward to this, but not the M6. I'll be more than pleased with a draw. Set us up nicely for an easy home victory on Saturday!

They look decent tbf. Very organised side who like getting it in the box. Norm is going to have to start and give those two mountains at the back something to think about.

Don't Wickes use ANPR, they certainly do in Coventry as I got ticketed because I stayed over 1 hour when discussing bathrooms with one of their sales people (I wanted a quote to compare with other vendors). I got them to withdraw the ticket which arrived about 2 weeks after my chat but it was hassle I could have done without.

Didn't make myself clear. I used a Parking app which allows me to park there.

I meant "booked" not "looked".

Got a feeling we'll rotate a few. Maybe bring in Kitching for a more physical presence.

We never seem to win there. I can only remember us winning there once in recent memory, nearly 20 years ago.

Was there when we lost 7-1 in the league. Went back shortly after in the FACup lost 4-0 I think.
Genuine dislike for Hawthorns ground. A point would be precious.

Are we sold on Lati as LCB after one game on his wrong foot? Yes he excelled, but is it a long term solution?

The EFL show said it was a foul. They are unbiased.

4-2, Mifsud 2 Best 2. That's the only one I remember. We're usually awful against them away and home too for the most part.

100% better defender than Binks, even if he only has 1 foot.

Probably not the long term answer, but he deserves to keep the shirt for another game at least.

So someone on the EFL show, who wasn't at the game, had an opinion. So what?

Never turned up last year. Bogey ground. So many bad results in the past. Real test even though they have lost a lot of good players and seem to draw a lot of games. Corberan is a great manager and there is a strong rumour he will go to Wolves..

Agreed he deserved another go but when he plays RCB he isn't great. Just found it odd all that after one game he was in all the above suggested teams as LCB

Think they have a pretty good view and the benefit of replays. They don't always agree with refs.

Lati played his first few games for us as a left side centre back to be fair

Thankfully the only opinion that matters was the ref's.
I thought the ref was very brave to disallow the goal and 2 penalty appeals, many refs would of given the home team something.

It's about time we had a decent ref.

Same ref as Middlesborough. Brave to correctly send their player off.

WBA are due a win or a defeat when you look at the amopunt of drawsthey have had! So it will go one way or the other...
lamps needs to show tactical skill here, a bigger test than Millwall. They are strong in the air so a worry if Lati plays in a CB position. We will need to defend well and stop Grant from running midfield. Bassette will get nothing from these so Simms must start. We will need physicality. You always have that feeling a returning player tends to score against you. Step up Asante. It could be our day...or not.

After a clean sheet in goodness knows how many games, surely we should not change the defence.
