It just wouldn’t be the Baggies without some eleventh hour issues. It seems to be in our blood that we must wait until the final match to make our achievements - be it relegation dog fights, play off contenders or play off themselves. No smooth ride for us.

Inexplicable stupidity from Asante. He will be more than gutted as he knows he needs to continue his energetic commitment to make up for some lack of natural ability. I hope Carlos and the management team are able to provide the necessary support to enable a restoration of his confidence.

I listened to CC in his post match interview and he made reference to the necessary playing skills required having received a yellow card.

Anyway…blood pressure monitor out in anticipation…
