Yes, we have proven that we can battle and be defensively solid with the right selection and formation but our problem continues to be our lack of goals-an issue we have had since before Corberan came. We are crying out for a creative midfielder and a proven goal scorer.

    Norwich have turned the corner with their new manager but part of their recent renaissance is also down to some smart incomings such as Toure. With our current financial constraints, we haven't been able to boost our squad options like that in the transfer window. Similarly, Blues have found traction but have also bought well. Both teams are, frankly, better than us. Today, despite losing on penalties, Blues were much the better side in their FA Cup game with Leeds for example but we still managed a draw with them. True, we rode our luck but we dug in and battled so a good result from our point of view.

    Given our lack of attacking quality, we are not going to beat the better teams in this league but if we can be organised and battle, we may get a point from them. That's what we need from the Coventry game for example. If we can do this and also manage to win games against fellow strugglers then we may just-just-avoid the drop.It doesn't matter if it isn't pretty, we just need to make it through and hope that we can then begin a decent rebuild in the summer once some of the financial constraints have gone.
    Talking of smart recruitment you know where they got Toure from don't you? Randers. Same place as where we sourced Tammer Bany for an initially higher outlay. They were actually teammates and Nestor went for the one who's manager had highlighted concerns over his physical ability to complete 90 minutes in fixtures at our level. You couldn't make it up as Al would say. Never know, Bany might just come good in the end. Eventually. Cheers in advance Uncle Nestor .

    ?I hope they look at elements of that performance and be appreciative of parts of it and hopefully see what I see in terms of the step forward across a number of the young players and that growing sense of squad and depth which we really have to push.

    So in conclusion our Eric is hoping you saw what he saw!!
    Glimpses Al. Very... very... brief... glimpses. Good job my eyes were still open I suppose as I may have missed them otherwise. Exciting times are just around the corner. It's a long corner though. Or possibly even a long throw in.........

    All I saw was another defeat by a bunch of no hopers masquerading as professional footballers led by a complete buffoon
    This has to be the worst Albion side in living memory and one of the worst managers in history and we?ve had our fair share, only one place we?re going under this charlatan and that?s down, if he?s here next season you can guarantee he?ll revert back to his wing back formation, a leopard never changes his spots

    When will we win again is the question.
    Looking at the fixtures it will be at home to Charlton Athletic in 8 days time.
    Charlton are playing at Southampton the Saturday beforehand so 2 games on the road, they'll be fed up and we will beat them.

    I have just looked at our remaining fixtures and I reckon that we will gain another 15 points, leaving us on 49. That should be enough to keep us in the Championship. Unfortunately, my prediction skills are not good!
