WBA53 match thread

Yet again, a game when it looks like we won't get started until the second half-why? The Preston game (in which, admittedly, PNE were defensively poor)we were up and at them from the very start and reaped the rewards. Seems like a long time ago now.

I understand that Yokuslu may still not be 100% but why Chalobah? Can see both Townsend and Molumby coming on second half as they may not be perfect but at least tend to inject some energy. Carlos hasn't got a lot to play with but sure he will demand more attitude and commitment for next 45

Its been a baggies problem for decades.

Sadly, you're not wrong boingy! 😞

At least we are starting to press a bit more now.

Bit late for a triple change but good to see Fellows given another chance

[Bombers right foot]

Absolute garbage again, no urgency, no forwards, nothing, Asante getting worse and worse, how many times was he caught offside, really poor, looked like a veteran Albion X1

Another result to cement mid table existence.

Well what a bizarre league this is. We were three points behind the top six before today and now after a 0-0 draw were only 1 point off. Bristol city are the only team to get 3 points from 4th down to 11th. Still only Leicester and Ipswich have any consistency. As I look at the table now we are 2 points off but gone up to 9th. So at this stage after 12 games we are in a very good position (without key players)

I know that in the Championship any one can beat anyone else on the day but really should have taken 3 points today and if we had started to play in the first half as we began to in the second maybe we would have.

Think Fellows definitely needs to be given more game time now as he looks promising and can make things happen.

Yes, we are in a reasonable position but not because of our own performances but because of the strange nature of the league. We have been unfortunate with injuries and a few decisions have gone against us. However, we haven’t been at all impressive in many of our games and until we can get players back from their respective injuries we have to ‘dig in’ to get results in order to keep in touch with the rest.

Considering everything I’m happy enough. After twelve games to be in touch is good. I’m surprised we’re not losing more games with the lack of attacking options. Plymouth we’re great today. Good team. Lots of good teams.
